My stay at Dinesh was better than I could have wished for. Dinesh and Deepa are wonderful hosts that made me feel so welcome and their place is simple, but very peaceful. The food was exceptional: the breakfast delish and the Dal Bats were sincerely speaking the best I've had in two months in Nepal.

It's my 3rd time I stay for a longer period at Dinesh House. It feels like having a family. No resort or big hotel can replace the warmth and experience of living with the family. There are rooms for every budget. The dal bhat is one of the best you will have. As well as the pancakes. I recommend definitely the hike with Dinesh. But also the cooking class with Dipa. If you are looking for true Nepali experience then don't hesitate to stay there.

One of the top places we’ve stayed on our 5 month trip, even though it was only one night it left a wonderful impression for us. It is run by very kind and welcoming family, and perfect for after our Vipassana course. They cooked a delicious dinner and took us to a local festival event, teaching us customs. A peaceful hill in Nepal worth visiting if near Pokhara.

If you want to spend time in an exeptional location inmersed in nepali rural family lifestyle then be warmly welcomed here. I really enjoyed my stay with them. They also offer cooking cources, masages, trips and many more. Great location to go to rupa lake, begnas lake and to the nearby hills. I highly recommend this precious guest house!

Overall it was a great stay, but want to note this for others - Far walk to lake, but I still think this was the best place around the lake. It’s remote and in Nepal so nothing really fancy. The only thing that would be nice is if they updated the mattresses. I was only there 2 nights, so it didn’t bother me and again, it’s remote in Nepal. WiFi didn’t work well Incase anyone planned to work.

The hosts were very friendly and the views were great! Food was amazing!!! We had breakfast and dinner.

Dinesh and his family were so lovely and welcoming. The various options for activities were great and it’s apparent how much they care about the guests. The views of the annapurnas and Manaslu were spectacular, and on one evening provided the most magnificent sunset.

Would be nice to be able to refill drinking water rather than using plastic bottles.

Everything was so lovely! The tranquil setting, light airy room and delicious home cooked meals. The bed was very comfortable and the wifi worked well. Beautiful view of the lake and relaxing walk to Majikuna. I did not want to leave!

The Dinesh family was very kind and responded carefully to all our requests. The homemade honey and coffee for breakfast were really delicious. You can enjoy a different side of Nepal in the middle of nature.

N/A — I had a great experience! The place was a bit hard to find, but Dinesh was very proactive sending me all the details I needed to find it :)

I stayed at Dinesh House the night before the start of my Vipassana course at the Dhamma Pokhara Vipassana Center in Leknath. I can highly recommend Dinesh House as the perfect place to prepare for Vipassana since it is so quiet, beautiful, tranquil and serene :) It would also be a wonderful place to re-enter reality after a 10-day Vipassana, for the same reasons! It couldn't be closer to the Vipassana Center; I was able to walk there the next morning from Dinesh House, it was only about a 10-minute walk away! First things first: the views from Dinesh House are absolutely gorgeous!!! You can see Begnas Lake, and on a clear day the Annapurna Mountain Range as well! I couldn't have asked for more beautiful views. Onto the hosting family: Dinesh and his lovely wife, Dipa. They were both SO kind to me during my stay. On my walk to Dinesh House, there was a bit of rain, so he came out to walk me there and brought me an umbrella to keep me dry! I was really happy with my room, the bathroom, and especially the meals: Dipa cooked me a delicious dal bhat dinner the night I arrived, plus a tasty omelette with chapati & coffee the next morning. I highly recommend Dinesh House to travelers looking for beautiful views, tasty food, and friendly company on site — thanks so much Dinesh & Dipa for providing such a wonderful experience!

We had a lovely stay with Dinesh and his sweet family. The room was very clean and just beautiful made. You should definitely try the home made dhal bat as it is one of the best we had in Nepal. It’s a little paradise.

My partner and I had an amazing two night stay in Dinesh’s homestay. The rooms were clean & comfortable with beautiful views and a lush garden. Dinesh made us feel very welcome. Dinesh, his wife ans his mother prepared us delicious food and coffee. We enjoyed every mimute of our peaceful and relaxing stay here. The place was only a twenty minute walk to the lake where there are plenty of bars, restaurants and swimming opportunities. I would recommend to anyone visiting Begnas Lake area.

Dinesh House is the perfect spot for a few days relaxation. The rooms are simple but clean and comfortable, beautiful gardens for outdoor dining, with comfy chairs, swings and a hammock making a great place for quiet reading, bird watching or chatting with other guests. Start the day with a home grown delicious coffee, and enjoy Dipa’s tasty dal bhat tarkari for dinner, with many of the vegetables coming fresh from the garden. Dinesh joins guests for dinner, providing a great opportunity to learn about the local area, customs, environment and his family. It’s a short walk down to the lake where there are several other cafes offering a variety of lunch options. Dinesh also offers a range of guided tours in the local area, so there’s plenty to do if you want, or just to relax and enjoy the surroundings. And many guests (me included) are return visitors - surely the best recommendation.

Perfecte omgeving

There could be some more social spaces - we were there for a few days, one of which there was quite a bit of rain, and there wasn't a covered area to engage other guests. During sunny days, they do have tables outside with big beautiful trees that provide shade though 😉

The food was excellent, the delicious coffee was harvested and roasted on site. The views were beautiful, lots of butterflies and birds, rooms were very clean, all around a wonderful experience. The family running the home for over 20 years does a wonderful job of knowing when to engage, and when to give space. They're very intuitive and focused on making sure you have an authentic experience. My best stay in Nepal so far, easily.
