    The Homestay is operated by a heartfelt loving host family. You feel welcome immediately and home. The rooms are pleasantly organized. Especially the light-flooded common room with dining table and arms lines for reading is inviting. From the terraces you have a view view to the Knuckle mountains. Mahesh is a helpful organizational talent, the mother prepares for breakfast, as well as tasty local food on request. I felt very comfortable in this Homestay.

    I found this to be a lovely homestay. The place is filled with wood carved artwork, it’s like a museum. The host family is very kind, will help you with what you need and work their magic in the kitchen creating delicious meals for breakfast and dinner in my case. The also organize tours, which I joined and that was money and time very well spent. The homestay is a good 10 minute walk to town center, but it’s a relatively quiet one along the lake (north side).
