Murti Homestay

Murti Homestay offers a peaceful escape in the green heart of the Dooars, close to the Bhattay Suspension Bridge in Kumai Khasmahal. Surrounded by forested hills, riverbeds, and tea gardens, it’s the kind of place where mornings begin with birdsong and mist drifting over the valley. Guests stay in a friendly, family-run environment that combines simple comfort with local charm. Reliable electricity and good mobile network coverage make it easy to stay connected, while the in-house kitchen serves homely regional meals—perfect after a day of exploring. The hosts can prepare freshly cooked Bengali and local hill-style dishes, often using seasonal vegetables and ingredients from nearby markets, giving travelers an authentic taste of everyday life in this part of North Bengal. One of the biggest advantages of staying here is reachability. Roads are in good condition and the property is easy for taxis and jeeps to access, so you can focus on travel experiences instead of logistics. Once you arrive, you’re well-placed for short drives and day trips across the region. Nature lovers can explore Rocky Island, known for its boulder-strewn riverbanks, picnic spots, and opportunities for gentle hikes along the river. Jhalong, set along the banks of the Jaldhaka River, offers a beautiful riverside setting with views of Bhutan’s hills in the distance and a relaxed, small-town feel. For sweeping panoramic views, Laliguras View Point rewards you with dramatic vistas of valleys, forests, and rolling tea gardens—ideal for photographers and those who simply want to sit and take in the landscape. Even if you don’t venture far, the immediate surroundings of the homestay invite slow walks, riverside moments, and stargazing on clear nights. It’s a welcoming base for couples, families, and small groups looking for fresh air, quiet evenings, and an unhurried pace of life in the Dooars.
