Phuncheling Farmstay is a warm and very traditional Bhutanese home where three generations live under one roof. The family’s hospitality is heartfelt and authentic, and the food is truly exceptional. Dawa, the talented and enterprising son-in-law of the house, is both chef and entertainer—so much so that guests have fondly nicknamed him the “Jamie Oliver of Trashiyangtse” for his famous chili–aubergine salad.
The farmstay is beautifully located, offering sweeping views of the surrounding valley and mountains. From here, you can enjoy several nearby excursions, including a visit to Rigsum Gonpa, one of eastern Bhutan’s most important spiritual sites.
A stay at Phuncheling Farmstay promises delicious food, genuine family warmth, and a memorable glimpse into everyday life in rural Bhutan.
