Truly speechless at the beauty here! The homestay environment fully meets expectations, it’s been a long time since I’ve seen such a touching place to stay. Stepping in feels like entering Van Gogh’s palette🎨, instantly filling you with healing vibes～
✔️Full French manor atmosphere
✔️Infinity pool blending with mountain scenery
✔️Surrounded by mountains, green views right outside the window

The room decor is full of thoughtful details, with a gentle wabi-sabi style. Every window is a “viewfinder,” framing the seasons and dawns of the mountains. Linen bedding wrapped in the warmth of sunlight, the room is bright and transparent, with soothing green everywhere, perfect for relaxing while lying down～

The homestay is located in town, very convenient for meals: a 5-10 minute drive to town restaurants, or you can pre-order meals from the homestay. The food tastes great and portions are generous, highly recommend the “Yangmei Pork Ribs,” sweet and sour, perfect with rice! Breakfast is buffet style, not as lavish as star-rated hotels, but fresh ingredients and home-style flavors make every bite full of homely warmth～

The homestay’s facilities are also very thoughtful: it has its own bookstore and coffee shop, where the aroma of freshly baked bread mixed with coffee is super healing; outside the coffee shop is the infinity pool, with blue water and vast green lawns, every photo looks like an Instagram masterpiece, making you feel relaxed and refreshed. There is also a small indoor children’s playground, making it easy and comfortable for traveling with kids～
