Reviews of Fewa View Cottage Yoga Retreat Pokhara

Family members running the place are wonderful people! Super kind, nice, and helpful.. The location is great, it's a short hike up the hill and it's accessible by bike, though you can see the whole lake and see the jungle nearby and the fields. The rooms are clean and the meditation room is open for guests, it was so relaxing and nice being there

Nothing

Hot water in the bathroom

No view from house. It's just like four wall. And owner on arrival to room they interchanged the room ,they given my booked room to others. So Don't book online. When you travel , it's better to book offline to other homestay where you like

Amazing view overlooking the lake. The family who run the property are so welcoming, lovely and will do anything to help.

I had one of the bigger rooms that came with a shared terrace with a beautiful view. Peaceful location and great and helpful host family. Very fun and friendly people! You can also order food here. Great value for money.

The location is a bit far from town and the road is currently under construction - which is great, if you are looking for something a bit remote. Otherwise you can hike down to the main road via a scenic shortcut and take a bus or InDrive to town for very little money. The fare back is bigger in the evening and the scooter taxi drivers aren't always happy about the long bad road in the dark (and cars currently have to make a long detour to even get there). If you'd like to save some money and are alright with a nice little evening hike, you can just get a drive to where the smaller road starts and walk from there.

Just bliss in beauty

There’s no words to describe the happiness I felt in that place; the views of the lake and mountains are magical, so it’s the connection with the lovely family who takes care of this beautiful home. You will be lucky if you get to stay there! They cook the best Nepali food with fresh and organic vegetables from the garden and everything is delicious.

The time i had to leave

It’s a beautifully located place, far away from the city buzz. Perfect place if you want to escape and stare at the lake for a long time. It’s an adventurous way to get there, very bumpy road. The hosts are lovely!

Can’t rely on hot water :) and the walls are thin so take some earplugs if you are sensitive to noise.

Good view. Friendly staff.

Terrible access road. Cheap owners.

Great location to get away for a few days. 30 mins walk down the hill from nearest cafes and restaurants. 1 hour walking from Pokhara (or 30 min walk and 10 min bus). Friendly family. Easy to walk up into the mountains. Great views. Friendly hosts. It's more a place to get away from it all and relax.

Beds are hard and it is basic and no frills. Great for a retreat or to get away from it all, but don't expect luxury.

The cottage is located in the Sedi village about 5kms from Hallan chowk. It has a great view of Fewa lake and quite far away from the crowded Lakeside hotels and restaurants

The access to the hotel isn't great. It isn't a hotel for family or anyone doing solo if they don't have a vehicle capable of off roading as the road (street 9/18) is broken and still getting properly flattened

Beautiful location in nature. Quiet. Yoga space, sound healing and other holistic practices available on request. Family members who run the Homestay were so kind and hospitable, genuine and kind souls. Offered breakfast every morning included in price of room. We took an apartment space so we could cook. The road up can be tricky, so be aware as we rented a scooter and a motorbike would have been better.

The fan was so loud

Beautiful area which provides you calm and peacefull space. Family are amazing people very helpful and amazing cooks as well!! Very recomend for another kind of experience.

The views from here are superb over the lake. It is in a peaceful, rural location away from the tourist area and if you want to get away the tourist trap and feel a more authentic Nepalese experience, this is for you. The place might not be The Hilton, but the owners are kind, helpful and sweet.

If you value convenience over authenticity, this is not for you. It is a bus ride from lakeside, and then a 20-30 minute walk up a steep, rocky and dusty track. And if you return after dark, you better have a decent torch with you if you're walking. If however you're desperate to escape the fakery of the touristic lakeside, want peace and quiet, want a stunning view over the lake and being greeted by a kind and welcoming family, you should certainly consider staying here.

This homestay was very special. We felt welcomed by the host family from the moment we arrived. Also food was delicious, with homegrown organic vegetables. We had an apartment with stunning views of the lake and hills. The owner, Bimal is licenced mountain guide, he arranged both permits for as in advance , sent us confirmations to email and he guided us to ABC and back. I highly recommend this beautiful, peaceful retreat and all the services.

lovely family run place

nothing

It's a quite place and you feel like to live in family

The location is amazing, very tranquil quality with gorgeous views of the lake. If you are an independent traveller and want somewhere to hang out in Pokhara, away from the hustle and bustle of Lakeside this is it. Its easy to catch a local bus into Lakeside also. The family are lovely and you can join in with a yoga session before breakfast if you like.

There isn't a restaurant as such. The family are happy to cook food for you, but the timing will depend on them. Mind you my room had a kitchen, so it's possible to do your own.
