Thulaga Da Basnet Joshi Homestay

Thulaga Da Basnet Joshi Homestay is a family-run stay in Sunkunda, a rural village in the hills of Bagmati Province. The name carries the warmth of a household that has opened its home to guests: "Thulaga Da" references an elder figure, and the Basnet Joshi family name places this in a Chhetri household tradition. The setting is a quiet hill village with open landscapes directly accessible from the property, suited to travellers who want unhurried rural time rather than a curated itinerary.The Deluxe Room sleeps two guests at NPR 1,650 per night with WiFi, parking, and a geyser included. Meals are home-cooked and locally sourced, following the seasonal rhythms of the household kitchen. The hosts are described as hands-on and willing to help guests navigate the area, which matters more in a lesser-known village location where context from a local is the most useful form of orientation.Sunkunda sits within the broader hill belt north of Kathmandu, a region characterised by terraced farmland, forested ridges, and the kind of wide valley views that are harder to find from the valley floor. For travellers looking for a genuine hill village stay close to Kathmandu without the more trafficked destinations around Nagarkot or Dhulikhel, this type of location offers comparable scenery with fewer visitors and a more personal stay.
