Shanta Ghar A Rustic Guesthouse

Stay with welcoming and friendly family well off the beaten track. Our host arranged a safari in Chitwan for the day and we saw rhinos, elephants and many other wild animals and saw parts of Chitwan far away from the main tourist area. It wasn't very clear how to get there ... but it wasn't that hard. We left the Tourist bus at the first stop in Bharatpur (not the main stop - just ask the conductor for advice) and walked a short distance to the main bus terminal. After asking around a couple of times, we found the local bus to Madi and let the conductor know where we were staying. Then just sat until we were dropped off right outside the Guesthouse. The alternative option (and the one we wished we had taken) was to take a taxi/tuk-tuk to the Guesthouse - there is plenty of choice. This would be far quicker (the bus took 2+hours and the tuk-tuk would have been just over an hour).

The bed was very hard and there is not a lot to do if you are not going on a safari.

Lovely rural location within the boundary of the Chitwan National park.

Quite far away from where the bus leaves for Kathmandu

Tout, le calme, la famille, la simplicite. Le chien, le chat, leur amour et respect pour l'environnement et les animaux. Le petit dejeuner et diner. La moustiquaire et la chambre familiale, la vue, le balcon. Wifi excellente, meilleure qu'a Katmandou. Et douche tres chaudes, plus chaude que partout ailleurs! La distance ne devrait pas decourager. Tout a fait acceptable. Le bus s'arrete a la porte! De Bharaptur et Pokhara direct! On fait partie de la famille en tres peu de temps. Je devais rester 5 jours je suis restee 7.

Matelas tres dur, mais c'est la norme en Asie.

Es war alles Bestens: Die Umgebung, das wunderschöne alte Haus, die Herzlichkeit der Familie. Wir haben uns sehr Willkommen gefühlt. Die Jeepsafarie war super!

If you’re looking for an authentic homestay, in the middle of rural Nepal where you can relax and enjoy Nepalese culture and food, then this is the perfect place. The family is kind and helpful, the food was absolutely delicious and the surroundings are beautiful. The rooms are spacious though not super luxurious (which is to be expected being this far from commercial touristic places to be fair). They also arranged a jungle safari for us! We loved our stay here!

Si vous cherchez de l'authenticité venez dans cette guest. Le site et l'ambiance de cette campagne sont magiques L'accueil et la bienveillance de la famille, Les sourires et les repas typiques et délicieux

La relation avec la Famille, très cool !

Hygiène un peu bof --- Pas de Climatisation

Family were very accomodating making sure we had everything we needed and more! It’s in a great location very relaxing surrounded by rice fields in a small village.

If you want to experience local, rural Nepal then this place is perfect! The family you stay with are all amazing, and make the experience even more memorable! The wife cooks the best traditional Nepal food too! Mr Rama has a jeep and took us on a jungle safari and to a waterfall as well! Mr Rama is the kindest man and also provided me with lots of information on their religion and traditions! I was a solo female traveller and I highly recommend this place!
