The generously sized rooms are designed to be peaceful sanctuaries after a day of exploring, complete with plush mattresses, high thread count linens and natural wood panelling infused with essential oils. Bathrooms come with large soaking tubs and rain showers, but for some extra pampering you can always head to the spa for a traditional massage or hot stone bath. The resort has a hall for self-guided yoga and meditation.

Ashi, the matriarch of the family, runs the kitchen where hearty regional dishes are crafted out of farm-sourced local cheese, seasonal fruits and vegetables, lean meat and freshwater fish. Some highlights include the buckwheat pancakes slathered in hand-gathered Bumthang honey and the fibre-rich noodles of the Jakar Valley.
