“A stunning lodge, both traditional and indulgent, on the edge of a village below Drukyel Dzong. The rooms are solid, wood-clad and incredibly beautiful in their simplicity- with large windows, wood burning stoves and excellent bathrooms. The food, like the rooms, doesn't mess around. Wonderful.”

"Hidden among pine trees in Balakha village, half an hour from Paro’s international airport, with mountain streams running through the property and views of Jhomolhari."
