On the outskirts of Pokhara, I found the best hotel of my trip to Nepal so far.

My previous hotel stay at Tiger Mountain had included free transport to and from the lakeside area. So after being driven back to that part of the city, I searched for a taxi to take me to my next hotel, 'The Pavilions Himalayas The Farm.'

I approached a group of taxi driver, who claimed to know where my hotel was, but I wasn't convinced by their body language. Sure enough, we drove for a bit and then I had to phone the hotel for them to give the driver directions.

It was way much farther than the driver thought it was, and the later part of the journey required slow driving on a very bump road, so I offered to pay more than we had originally agreed.

If you visit Nepal during the summer be prepared for downpours. I wasn't. Thankfully, at the entrance to the resort I was greeted by a member of staff who had an umbrella for me.

I earned myself some good karma by spinning the Buddhist wheels as I entered the eco resort.

I was immediately impressed by the hotel. The swimming pool was a very decent size, with incredible views of the countryside. I was even more impressed when I checked into my room, which was actually a detached duplex villa.

Everything about this chalet was perfect. It was spacious, beautiful and luxurious. It even had decent internet, which wasn't something I was expecting, given the rural location.

So many hotels I've stayed in have either been very fancy-looking but not very practical, or vise vera. But this hotel ticked both those boxes. It looked incredibly elegant but was also very practical and comfortable.

After getting settled in I went for a bit of an explore around the local village, bought some snacks and drinks from the little shops that people operate out of their homes, then got back to the resort just as the sun was coming out to enjoy a nice swim in their luxurious pool.

I booked my hotel through an agent as it was the same price as booking direct but included a free dinner on the first night. So I enjoyed a delicious mushroom salad and Nepali thali beside the pool, made with many ingredients grown in the resort.

I've stayed in some nice hotels in Pokhara so far, but this has definitely been my favourite. I would have booked for longer than just 3 days if I knew how much I'd enjoy staying there.
