Yangsum Farm

With an idyllic location, surrounded by fields and edge-to-edge mountain ranges, Yangsum Farm is a real find. Owner-run by Thendup Tashi and Pema, this is a working farm: The resident rooster and watchdog geese ensure that everyone is up at the crack of dawn to welcome the early morning rays and contemplate another relaxing day. You'll spend your time soaking in views, or getting fat on Sikkimese cuisine. (Growing everything from mandarin, plums, pears, and peaches to spinach, radish, cauliflower, and cardamom, this is one place you won't be going hungry.) Burn it all off with long, lovely walks around the countryside, coming across monasteries, ancient lepcha houses, and fog-filled forests (not to mention a leech or two). Of the four rooms, the heritage and the mud cottage are the best -- spacious with curtains fashioned out of silks, thangkas on walls, and tiny balconies overlooking the fields with the range in the backdrop.
