Shanta Ghar A Rustic Guesthouse

Shanta Ghar is far away from the busier gateways to Chitwan national park in the district of Madi. Surrounded by paddy fields, simple wooden buildings, traditional agriculture and the hills covered with jungle on either side. I stayed in the beautiful traditional wooden building with so much character, huge rooms, and very simple amenities. They also have more modern style rooms with attached bathroom. Even though the family live in the building next door I slept so well, at night just blissful peace and quiet so hard to find these days. Hari and Deppa are perfect hosts, such kind, honest and generous people, I loved their company. They also have the most gorgeous well behaved and smart dog and his best friend another sweet dog from another home that hangs out all the time there. I could see just how kind Hari is by how he treated these dogs! The view all around the property is golden and green, the feeling peaceful and authentic. I was lucky to share a safari with two other girls staying at Shanta Ghar and we saw many Rhinos, Elephants, Crocodiles and interesting birds and had a super day, Hari never stopped looking to find another interesting thing to show us-he puts 100% into his safaris. Danuvad Shanta Ghar and hope to see you soon in September :-) Cat

Nothing bad just a couple of suggestions: a fruit option for breakfast would be good and a bicycle to rent would be great

it's a gorgeous homestead. we shared breakfast and dinner with the family and it felt truly like old friends chatting. the animals on the property are amazing! it is pretty remote- in that it's not close to anything (except the border) but we had our own bike so that wasn't an issue. It might be nicer to experience in winter as june heat was unbearable. they also offer safaris and seemed very knowledgeable about it.

Calm, quiet and far from the bitten track. The family is the nicest people I've met. The owner has an extensive knowledge about not only Chitwan but also the Himalaya mountains. The safari they organize is a once-in-a-lifetime experience, during which you can eat delicious meals in a jungle watching wildlife and cruise in a jeep spotting rhinos and elephants! They truly put so much care in everything the guests experience. If you want a unique moment away from all the touristy noise, this is a fantastic place! Sincerely recommend!

Assolutamente TUTTO! Una delle esperienze più autentiche della mia vita!!! Porterò per sempre nel cuore questa splendida famiglia e questo luogo magico dove la vita scorre ad un ritmo lento ed in sintonia con la natura! Il proprietario è un uomo eccezionale, disponibile ed dal cuore grande! Sua moglie una donna dalla dolcezza infinita ed una cuoca incredibile!!! Ed il loro cane davvero cordiale!! Spero di tornare ancora! Grazie per l’ospitalità !!!

Every thing about our stay was more than we anticipated. The family was welcoming to us from time we arrived and we felt comfortable immediately.

We didn’t want to leave so we. have not yet.

Красивый старый дом

Хоумстей по цене хорошего отеля. Мой худший опыт за 3 раза в Непале. Неискренние хозяева. Чтобы поесть там только 2 опции: далбат или пережаренный омлет. Даже чая не нальют. Всё заточено на то, чтобы увезти тебя на частный сафари втридорого, где тебя покормят опять холодным далбатом. Разочарование

we loved being in a true village environment and going for walk early morning through the rice fields with the owners dog.

not the owners fault but it was very hot early may.

family is very sweet. the place is beautiful<3

Lovely family, location and house.

The cost was higher than our budget. Especially for the safari trip… very much higher than we had expected.

L'assoluta unicità dell'esperienza. Una casa in legno, in mezzo alle risaie, lontana dal mondo. Unica. Ma il valore aggiunto è la famiglia che ti ospita. Hari, il capofamiglia è una persona straordinaria, con cui ho cenato insieme al figlio, parlando della vita in nepal e della sua straordinaria esperienza. È una persona gentile, simpatica e molto onesta. È stato un incontro eccezionale. E una esperienza davvero unica. Ho fatto, insieme ad Hari, un safari eccezionale, 11 ore in mezzo alla foresta, è stato una guida eccezionale e mi ha spiegato un sacco di cose sulla vita della foresta. E lui ha una vista incredibile e sono riuscito a vedere un sacco di animali. È stata una esperienza davvero unica. Quello che pagate non è un albergo, è una esperienza di vita. Grazie Hari a te e alla tua bellissima famiglia. Spero un giorno di poter tornare a trovarti. Un abbraccio
