What an awesome place to stay! Little cottages dotted among the grounds, with cool outdoor bathrooms (hot water intermittent, but that's part of the charm). The restaurant serves home-cooked food with many of the ingredients grown on the premises. This was such fun! You're in the wilds (or at least the gardens) so bring a torch and some insect-repellent for the evenings, and expect a certain amount of noise from the calling of the geckos and other animals and birds.

I stayed here one night as part of an Intrepid group exploring Java. The rooms are on the basic side, but ok. The grounds are wonderful and many spaces are given over to growing herbs and vegetables. The ethos behind the place is excellent too. The staff were very helpful indeed and the food they provided for us buffet style was plentiful and delicious. After dinner, one of the staff explained the history of the Lodge and how to make the Sultan's 'Secret Tea'. If you decide to stay there, do take the time to explore the local village and enjoy the amazing views over the rice fields and marvel at the intricate water management system. Altogether, a good experience.

This place was a little bit of heaven. To ones side there were mountains and the other the volcano. It was lush with vegetation and wildlife. The staff couldn't do enough for you. Everyone was so lovely. Whilst there we visited the local village where we were treated like royalty. The children and elders have captured a little bit of my heart. I loved them all and miss them. I would love to return one day to see them all again.
