Offering clean mattresses in newly decorated rooms in the upstairs storey of the family house, this homestay is set within a lovely garden with a spreading grape vine. There is a hot-water bathroom with Western-style loo and guests can use the tea-bed to relax in the garden. It's southeast of the obvious TV transmitter.
