We have stayed here recently...it was an amazing experience...we reach there at 3.30 p.m...they served lunch 'then and then' with unexpected quality and quantity.... Swing was very interesting.....after reaching kolkata we noticed one dress was there i.e without taking the dress we left the homestay... But after informing them they send the dress via speed post....thank you so much Pallavi Mam....if anyone want to stay at Kalimpong, without any hesitation go ahead....

The homestay is located in a great location and the property is beautiful, well-maintained, and comfortable. The overall service and hospitality were very good. However, the taste of the food has room for improvement.

A cottage-style homestay with beautiful natural surroundings, and a peaceful atmosphere. It is a good choice for travelers looking to enjoy nature and spend a relaxing weekend away from the city.

Had a wonderful stay at this homestay! The behaviour and hospitality were absolutely top notch — everyone was extremely warm and welcoming. The view from the property was breathtaking, the rooms were very clean and well-maintained, and the ambience was calm, cozy, and beautiful. Overall, we were completely satisfied with the experience. Just a small suggestion for improvement would be the food taste, which could be a little better. Apart from that, everything was amazing! Definately Recommend!!❤️

My husband and I visited this homestay during the first week of April 2026 for 3 days. The homestay is well decorated, and the view is just awesome (if you are lucky enough if the weather is clear). It's peaceful and ideal for a vacation where you want to relax and unwind. The owner is very polite and the staff are super cordial and humble. The food was homely and the service was just spot on. Must try: BBQ and Bonfire (The evening was just magical) I am planning to come again at the end of this year with my friends and family.

I visited just a few days ago, and I would like to discuss some critical issues below... Owner, please pay attention to this matter. 🙏🏼 It is supposed to be a "Peaceful" homestay; however, a child is constantly screaming and crying, and throwing trash everywhere. We happened to step into the kitchen and found it absolutely filthy—just like hell! 🤮 Vegetable peels, water, and other waste were strewn all over the place; the dustbin was overflowing, with trash spilling out onto the floor. Nothing was organized at all. 😓 We travel to such offbeat places specifically to find peace—to spend a couple of days in tranquility—yet, even here, we found a child crying and screaming incessantly. And his mother's voice was even more unbearable! 😵‍💫😵‍💫🫨🫨 We were driven to the brink of depression; this place—supposed to be a "Nirvana"—felt just like hell, morning, evening, and night. I specifically asked one of the female staff members not to make our food spicy; yet, she prepared a potato dish that was bright red in color and lethally spicy. When I tried to speak to her about it, she retorted in such a loud, aggressive tone that her child started crying as well. I would simply like to tell the owner this: you have established a homestay in an offbeat location, but you have failed to make it a peaceful sanctuary. Sorry to say, but we have also shared this entire experience on YouTube. 🙏🏼 Finally, as a travel influencer, I would like to advise anyone planning to visit this place to be fully aware of the issues regarding filth, foul odors, spiders, and the lack of kitchen hygiene before making the trip. After all, we are paying a significant amount of money for our stay—not to have to listen to a child crying and his mother shouting abuses. 🙏🏼

The homestay is very beautiful, rooms are ok.. Food and service was good But it's extream offbeat. 1-2 km to the property does not have any road you can say.. If you are travelling by your own car then be careful.
