Peaks & Valleys Homestay – Rishop
This wooden cottage is situated in quiet village Rishop, around 30 kms from Kalipmpong. It is cuddled in the foothills of Tiffin Dara in the Neora Valley National Park and the entire mountain range starting from Kanchenjungha to Nathula can be seen from here.
There are 7 rooms available for work from home 3 classic rooms at ground floor in one building and 4 superior rooms at ground floor in separate building. Wake up to lovely views of snowcapped Kanchenjunga and end your day under gorgeous star studded sky. The lights visible from the lit up town of Kalimpong below and the sparkling stars shining above make for a perfect romantic setting, infusing more beauty into the night. If you can fix your dates matching a full moon night you will be lucky to witness the moonlit snow-capped Kanchenjunga along with the bright stars. Altogether this awesome place gives you a mixed beauty sight of mountains, forest; chirping birds, clear day and the night sky.
