Stayed at Risheehat Farmstay and had a peaceful experience. We were the only couple staying at that time, so it felt very private and relaxing. The surroundings were beautiful, accommodation was comfortable, and the overall vibe was calm and refreshing. Perfect place to unwind away from the crowd. Highly recommended 👍

The homestay is good but the approach road is really bad.Try to reach this place by daytime as at night the roads are a bit scary and super bumpy. But once you reach the place is awesome with home cooked warm food served to you for breakfast lunch and dinner. The staff are really cordial and we'll behaved. You can buy some tea packets as well from their very own tea farm.
