The house belong to the simple people who take care of all your needs during the stay. We stayed in the cosy bamboo hut which makes you experience the living style of Khasi people. Once we reached there was no light in the village but we were happy to see the solar lights and candle light which took us to the childhood memories. Also, the local food was delicious to enjoy.
