Rooms
Our two bamboo cottages have been designed utilising traditional design principles with a modern aesthetic. Bamboo as a building material is a strong, as well as a sustainable option. It can be harvested within three to five years of planting, and has a high compressive strength which can resist lateral forces.
Each cottage is a single unit on bamboo stilts, and has been built using bamboo and timber sourced from the property itself. The walls were built using the "ikra" technique - knitted bamboo structure plastered with mud.
The Myrtle Cottage
A bright, spacious cottage sustainably built using bamboo from our own grove, the Myrtle Cottage is named after the tall Myrtle trees (locally known as Lampatey) in its vicinity. It is a single unit with two beds, a spacious seating area, attached bathroom, and a large balcony. It has a little courtyard with guava, pear and lemon trees, and a gorgeous view of the forest and the surrounding hills of Namchi from its spacious balcony.
The Birch Cottage
A cozy, sustainable built cottage surrounded by the lush green forest, the Birch Cottage is named after the Himalayan Birch trees found in abundance in the forest. It is a single unit with two beds, an attached bathroom, and a large balcony. The cottage has a long courtyard where we have planted orange trees. From its spacious balcony, one can see the gorgeous birch, myrtle, and schima trees surrounding the cottage, and a cardamom plantation further below.
The Eden Residence
The Eden Residence houses a kitchen, a communal dining space, and two bedrooms. The path leading to the house is lined with beautiful flower beds, pine trees, tiger grass, and two avocado trees that are laden with fruit towards the end of the year.
All of our cottages and rooms have attached bathrooms fitted with geysers for hot water supply, and are equipped with toiletries. Each room is also equipped with a room heater, fan, and a hot water kettle. The rooms also have a small seating area with a coffee table. Extra beds, writing tables and chairs can be provided.
