If you want a remote side room with The Queen Kanchenjunga, then it is your place.
Location: Strategically located between Lamahatta & Peshok i.e. it's actually in Lopchu, a small village but surrounded by tea gardens with a view of Queen.
Rooms: Rooms are good. Rooms may be small but views from Balcony can make your day. It's basically a Home away from home.
Foods: I don't want to say much as they provide bengali as well as pahari foods too. Didi is a superwoman. She can cook widespread variety of Bengali as well as other foods. One thing I must say , Didi will surprise you with her food. If you go there only for food, you must try Alu Paratha & Momo. I am sure Momo will surprise you. During our two days stay, they provide us huge a lot of foods. We got Homemade CHICKEN BIRIYANI there.
Other points:
1. Liquor : If you are specific about brands, then carry your bottle. It's very difficult to find liquor in that place. However some common brands can be locally found.
2. Barbecue :
This homestay can arrange chicken barbecue with a very nominal rate.
My Views: If you want a budget friendly, serene area for relaxing in the lap of nature, it's your place. I can say the homestay will not let you down. The people are amazing. The Aunty & Didi will take care of you like your mother/elder sister.
Professional, Clean and healthy
Awesome experience overall! The food was delicious, the hosts were very polite and welcoming, and the place itself is beautiful. You can even see Kanchenjunga from here, which makes it extra special. Must try their momos — highly recommended!

Great ambience
Great food
A very gracious couple from Kolkata run this place, who can cook great tasty meals. Ate a few breakfast items and they were all worth it. Plus the tea estate view at the back of the shack is too beautiful with Darjeeling tea. A good place at an offbeat place.
