Forest Inn


Next to the Dadia Info Centre, this welcoming guesthouse is tucked into greenery, with a chorus of frogs to sing you to sleep. Rooms are not rustic, as you might expect, but rather sleek and new. It's the best lodging for miles around, and not actually very remote, so easy to sightsee from here if you're travelling by car.
