A family-hosted forest village stay in Thakurdwara, Bardia, Nepal. 3 rooms sleeping up to 8 guests, from NPR 1,500 per night. Forest View accommodation available to book.

The Tharu kitchen is one of the least documented culinary traditions in Nepal — built around the produce of the forest and river, with techniques for smoke-preservation, wild herb extraction, and fermentation that developed in isolation from the hill communities above. This family stay is entirely centred on that culinary experience.
