About this property
Bumthang is four valleys — Chokhor, Tang, Ura and Chhume — lying between roughly 2,600 and 3,100 metres in central Bhutan, and it is farming country every bit as much as it is temple country: buckwheat and potato fields, apple trees, shingled roofs, and winters cold enough that the bukhari stove earns its keep. Most visitors arrive after the long drive east from Trongsa, or on the short flight into Bathpalathang.
Ngawang Homestay is a farmhouse stay in those valleys. A Bhutanese homestay means a room in a working family house and meals at the household’s own table — plain, warm and, for most of our guests, the night they talk about afterwards. It is the antidote to a week of hotel dining rooms, and the best way we know to see how a Bhutanese family actually lives.
Why we like it
- A working family farmhouse rather than a hotel
- In the Bumthang valleys, Bhutan's farming and temple heartland
