Homestay
with
excellent
view
and
hospitality.
We
booked
a
cottage
for
a
family
of
4.
The
cottage
had
2
bedrooms
and
a
living
room
and
a
well
equipped
kitchenette.
Here
is
a
breakdown
of
our
one
night
stay
at
the
property.
Location:
its
located
on
a
east
facing
hill
with
a
beautiful
view
of
the
valley,
even
though
it
was
winter.
I
bet
it
looks
even
more
gorgeous
when
all
of
those
apple
trees
in
front
of
the
house
is
in
full
bloom
or
fruiting.
The
grounds:
The
homestay
consists
of
a
traditional
2
storied
home,
and
cottages.
You
have
to
walk
past
the
traditonal
house
and
beautiful
well
kept
KOI
pond
to
get
to
the
cottage.
Cottages:
each
cottage
comes
with
1
room
with
double
bed,
the
second
bedroom
with
2
twin
beds,
and
a
living
area
with
a
kitechentte.
The
living
room
has
a
fireplace,
which
the
owners
start
as
soon
as
the
sun
goes
down.
There
are
heaters
in
the
room
along
with
ample
blankets
to
keep
you
warm
at
night.
The
kitchenette
is
well
equipped
with
an
induction
stove,
microwave,
water
filter,
fridge,
and
other
kitchen
utensils
including
wine
glasses.
Each
room
has
comes
with
a
well
equipped
toilet
and
bathroom.
Food:
our
package
was
inclusive
of
dinner
and
breakfast.
The
dinner
was
a
delicious
fare
of
red
rice,
beef
paa,
kewa
datshi
and
jaju.
Since
our
stay
coincided
with
their
annual
choeku,
we
were
treated
to
delicious
thueb
(rice
porridge)
in
the
morning
which
was
followed
by
another
sumptous
breakfast
comprising
of
red
rice,
mushroom
datshi,
and
pork
curry,
suja,
and
O-ja.
The
owners
were
graciously
invited
us
to
stay
for
lunch
too,
which
we
declined,
politely.
Hot
stone
bath:
The
property
also
offers
hotstone
bath
at
an
additional
cost.
However,
we
didn't
get
to
use
it
at
the
property
since
one
of
the
owners
wasn't
feeling
well.
But
they
promptly
arranged
for
a
hot
stone
at
a
nearby
place.
They
were
even
able
to
use
their
connections
to
negotiate
the
price
and
make
reservations
for
us.
We
were
very
thankful
for
that.
Ease
of
booking:
we
called
the
number
that
was
on
their
fb
page
and
the
cottage
was
booked.
Communication:
the
owners
were
very
responsive
to
calls
and
texts,
ready
to
help
with
everything.
They
equally
polite,
welcoming,
and
helpful
in
person
too.
Checking
in
and
out:
checking
in
was
swift.
There
was
no
paperwork
required,
since
we
were
locals.
It
was
follwed
by
hot
steaming
milk
tea
(o
-ja),
which
i
guess
was
the
welcome
tea.
Checking
out
comprised
of
completing
the
payment
and
vacating
the
rooms.
We
enjoyed
our
stay
here,
the
kids
felt
at
home
here.
I
highly
recommend
this
place
for
a
weekend
getaway
with
family
or
friends.
We
hope
to
come
back
soon.
