Your villa at Takdah hilltop

Takdah Villa is perched on one of the highest points of Takdah and offers a fabulous panoramic view of the valleys, hills, mountains and meandering rivers from room. On a clear day, you can catch a glimpse of the Teesta Valley from your room. The best thing about staying in this villa homestay is enjoying the “bird’s eye view” of the rising sun through the glass wall of your room.

You can say that the Takdah Villa home stay rooms are “traditionally modern” with fireplace and all other modern amenities needed to make your stay comfortable.

Two sisters, a brother and an elderly father welcomes you to stay at Takdah Villa. We stay at the ground floor and look after you and manage the kitchen and dining room. My family prepares the food for all our guests and my father tells stories about the people, culture, forests and our Takdah. We would arrange for the evening barbecues, pine forest walks and even for cultural programs if you wish.

A real gem hidden in nature of Takdah Cantonment. Bandana, Pradeep and Bhumika are three siblings along with their retired father started this awesome place post Covid time and with their sincerity, warmth, emotion and professionalism they made it a home for strangers going thete to enjoy the natural beauty of Takdah. The ever-smiling siblings make you their best pal in a moment with their warmth and coziness. Bandana, the elder one, is a pro in cooking homemade food. A homemaker herself loves to pour her heart into cooking food for anyone visiting their place. Pradeep, an amazing storyteller would quietly share the history of Takdah Cantonment with a shy smile on his face. Bhumika, the youngest of three, is the go to Momo person for you there. She is a known person in her village, a chirpy homemaker and yet having the strongest character amongst the siblings. It is worth staying there for the amazing view of sunrise from your bed itself, the scrumptious food they offer at a meager rate, the absolutely awesome hosts they are and a neat and clean room they offer at a reasonable price, if you are visiting Takdah Cantonment. Also, the active fireplace in the room on a chilly night seemed to be straight out of pages of a romantic book. We genuinely felt like leaving a part of our heart there while coming back home. It is definitely worth every penny you spend staying at Takdah villa and more.

Staying at Takdah Villa Home Stay felt less like a stay and more like coming home. From the moment we arrived, Pradeep Da, Bandana Di, and Bhumika Di welcomed us with such warmth and genuine care that they no longer felt like hosts—they felt like family. Pradeep Da is incredibly polite, always available, and ever ready to help with a smile. Bandana Di’s food deserves a special mention—every meal was cooked with love and tasted absolutely amazing. And the snacks prepared by Bhumika Di were simply delicious, perfect companions for long conversations and cold evenings. The homestay itself is magical. The fireplace adds a cozy charm, and the wall-to-wall windows are a dream. Waking up in bed and watching the sunrise over the endless hill ranges right in front of your eyes is an experience beyond words. This place touched our hearts. We came here as guests, but we’re leaving with memories, warmth, and people we now truly consider our own. An amazing experience with even more amazing people. Highly recommended for anyone seeking peace, comfort, and heartfelt hospitality. 🌄❤️ We arrived as travelers. We leave with full hearts, quiet memories, and a family found in the hills. Takdah Villa is not just an experience— it’s a feeling you’ll want to return to. ❤️🌄 For more video review follow us on Instagram : @Rides_N_Memories

One of the best homestay experiences till now. Truly overwhelmed by the hospitality. Thanks Bhumika di and team for making us feel like own family. Spacious rooms with amazing view, fireplace, delicious food, barbecue chicken and bonfire, mesmerizing sunrise view from the room itself, overall it was such an experience that can not be described in words. Lot of places to explore nearby like Takdah monastery, orchid garden, peshok tea garden etc. Will be back soon for sure in Takdah villa ❤️
