Adjacent to the Nongkhyllem Wildlife Sanctuary and halfway between Guwahati and Shillong, this charming farmstay is hidden in a tea plantation and fruit garden (oranges, lemons, star fruits, ananas, pears, mangoes, litchees, papaya, rosella, turmeric, cinnamon...). The house provides 4 bedrooms with attached bathroom. On a hot day, you can enjoy the natural swimming pool. Delicious Khasi cuisine.

Surrounded by the village forest, the homestay is a peaceful haven. Apart from soaking in the serene atmosphere, you can indulge in a bamboo workshop, a khasi cuisine class or go for birdwatching in the nearby sanctuary.

In the morning, head to the local market and pick up few organic vegetables to prepare lunch with your homestay host who will also be your local cuisine guide as she shares her kitchen and traditional recipes in a cooking session with you.

Rosie takes pride in her traditional cuisine and her improvisation on it as she adapts to the palate of the guests she hosts in her homestay. You will find her subtly using spices and introducing you to local greens in the scrumptious dishes she cooks with you.

Spend your afternoon to meet Kriya (Rosie’s daughter), a bamboo designer who passionately designs organic and sustainable home accents with bamboo.

Enjoy a visit of an organic bamboo workshop that adopts a “Material Driven Design” methodology. Witness fresh bamboo ware crafted in front of you and interact with the designer and her artisans to know more their craft and the organic processes behind it.
