Cozy village ambience.

Approach road is very narrow.

Peaceful in the midst of nature. Good location for meditation and tranquility. Good food and excellent host.

Road leading to the place can be confusing so call ahead for directions.

Garden in house restaurant mikoto .Binita who is the host Bidhya younger sister is a cook par excellent. I will back here soon. Since they are opening yoga and natuopathy.

Nothing

Despite having high expectations, from having read other reviews, my stay at Tenam Gardens still managed to far exceed my expectations. I cannot fault anything about the place. From the communication with Bidhya from the moment I booked, the perfectly clean and spacious room, the beautiful grounds on which the homestay is located, the food in the onsite restaurant, to the most important part, the wonderful hosts of the whole family, everything about this place is exceptional. Some homestays are little more than a guesthouse under a different name, but at Tenam Gardens you have the beauty of the privacy of your own spacious personal area, combined with a true experience of staying with a local family. I actually stayed longer than I had planned because it is such a warm and welcoming environment. Besides what I have already mentioned I should also mention a few other things. If you are a lover of plants, especially flowers then you are in for a treat when you see the gardens. If you are a lover of animals then you are also in for a treat when you meet the numerous pets of the family. If you are in need of information about the local area then you can't ask for better hosts. I came to this part of Kalimpong with a specific goal of learning some information about the local Dr Graham's Homes, and I could not have picked a better family to stay with to help me along that path. Tenam Gardens is a peaceful, quiet, welcoming retreat for those who want to be away from the hustle and bustle of central Kalmpong. It has taken my seventh trip to India to visit Kalimpong, and while this homestay might be a little away from the main part of town, I would happily return here on my next visit to India. In fact I can't imagine I would want to stay anywhere else.
