Haamro Ghar Holiday Home, Mirik

Haamro Ghar means ‘Our Home’ in our language. We’re a family-run homestay in the heart of Mirik. We’ve always had friends and families who surprise us with visits; hosting guests is thus a part of our hospitable culture. When they aren’t visiting us, we make the rooms available for you! We have been living in Mirik since 1997 & our home not only represents us & our stories, but it is also our way of sharing stories & having a good laugh with people from different backgrounds from far & wide. With a small kitchenette for self-cooking, our cozy guesthouse is ideal for small families, women travelers, solo travelers, couples & budget travelers for either a short stay or a long vacation. Our home is a perfect way for travellers and families to unwind and relax, or work on the go, whilst feeling like a home away from home. Two rooms- One Queen sized bed and one single bedroom with cable TV, two toilets and a bathroom, a work/study table and chair, and a kitchenette. With a separate private entrance, we ensure complete privacy to you during your stay. We believe every guest deserves a break (even from home) to stay at a place that is not home, but comfortable like one’s own home. We include basic utensils, gas, electricity and water supply for your comfortable stay. While we encourage you to try a hand at cooking some local dishes sourcing the local vegetables and ingredients from the market nearby, you can also bring in food from the plenty of restaurants around the home, all within walking distance. Just 5mins from the lakeside & 2mins from the Bokar Monastery, our home is conveniently located to all sights and is a nice place to relax amidst Nature. The facility is on the second floor, so please be aware that there are steps/stairs. You are more than welcome to come up to our terrace to view the beautiful Himalayas and lakeside, relax in the sun or dry your clothes. Use the verandah/balcony only for smoking please. We love meeting and exchanging conversations with people but we also respect your need for privacy. During your stay, you are more than welcome to join us in any of our family activities/experiences. We live right upstairs, so you can come up for a chat over tea or to ask anything right away. Our home is just 5mins away from the lakeside and Bokar Monastery and 2mins from the main road. Friendly locality with restaurants, grocery stores, pharmacy and sightseeing spots nearby. Close to the private and local taxi stands. Mirik is a quaint place for Nature lovers. Hosts a pretty lake with boating and horse riding facilities. Hike around the local villages and take a stroll to the Monastery. Stay back to volunteer for the village, teach, learn, meditate or simply relax. The neighbourhood tends to sleep early too, so we request that guests do not create noise or play loud music post 10pm. Most hiking and sightseeing places are easily accessible by foot. We are 2 hours away from Darjeeling, Kurseong, Siliguri, and the NJP railway station and Bagdogra airport. The taxi stand is just 5mins away. Mirik is just an hour away from Maneybhanjyang, the starting point of Sandakphu/Singalila National Park, popular amongst backpackers and adventure enthusiasts.
