Our home is in the beautiful hilltop village of Changu Narayan. We are just one hour from Kathmandu and 30 minutes from Bhaktapur.
You get great views from our house over the village and Kathmandu Valley, and there are no cars in the village, so you'll get a peaceful night's sleep!
We live on the ground floor of our house, so our guests have their private space on the first and second floor. They also have a private balcony and rooftop area.
We have wifi in the house, and provide breakfast everyday. Guests will receive typical Nepalese fare -- chapati, masala tea and eggs for breakfast, for lunch and dinner we offer daal bhaat.
There are many beautiful hikes and temples in this area, and we are happy to help our guests find day-trips to suit them. Our village is beautiful, and has the oldest temple in Nepal.
There are regular buses to Kathmandu and Bhaktapur (one every 30 mins), so you can use our homestay as a base while you are exploring the local area.
We welcome you heartily, and look forward to sharing Nepalese culture with you!

About the Area
We are five minutes walk from the center of Changu Narayan. The buses to Bhaktapur and Kathmandu are also a few minutes away by walking.
Our local neighborhood is extremely quiet and tranquil. You will be able to see farmers working, and the only noises you will hear are from ducks and goats! At night, the stars are very visible, perfect for stargazing.
