Recommended by a friend, very worth it! !
Thanks to the staff A Yuan and A Mei for their considerate service.
Although I only stayed here for one night, I also experienced various activities.
Let’s talk about the advantages:
1. There is a pick-up and drop-off service, so you don’t have to worry about carrying your luggage. We stayed in Lijiang Old Town the night before, and a dedicated butler came to pick us up at the B&B.
There are quite a lot of mountain roads on the way to Taohuawu, and it is far away from the city. If you drive by yourself, it will test your driving skills.
After we arrived, it was not time to check in, so Ah Mei suggested taking us to the Cliff Cafe to have a look. The scene of sunshine at noon is different from the sunshine of Jinshan in the morning.
Only hotel guests can come here, so there are not many people, and the view is very wide, slightly blocked by trees.
2. Boating and horse riding activities are very interesting.
For boating, two people can use a boat with a paddle board. When playing on this lake that is not particularly big, you will wear a life jacket. If you don't know how to row, there will be staff to guide you.
If you are riding a horse, two people can ride together. The staff here are very patient and will help take photos. After taking the photo, get on the horse and two people can go one behind the other. If you have not ridden a horse before, you can take it for a walk first. If you feel there is no problem, the master will take it and run with it, which is quite an experience. The horses here are very comfortable and have good food, so their coats are much brighter and stronger than those seen in other parks and ancient towns.
3. We stayed in the Starry Sky Room, a small wooden cabin, which really felt like a paradise. Very, very quiet, with the occasional squawk of geese.
There is a small terrace in front of the house with a camping table and chairs. It is very comfortable to sit outside when the sun is shining.
The room is also very spacious, with a Marshall stereo, refrigerator, TV, and toiletries which are also very good.
There is Coke, Fanta, Sprite, and salt soda Red Bull in the refrigerator, which you can drink for free.
The toilet is automatic, the bathroom has a lot of water, the bath is very comfortable, and the heating is great. If there is electric heating in the whole house, you can tell the housekeeper whether the temperature needs to be raised or lowered.
4. In the morning, you can be picked up and dropped off at the Cliff Cafe to see the Rizhao Jinshan Mountain. We were ready at 6:30. If we don’t set off before 6:50, we just caught our eye.
The experience was really good. There were only seven people in the coffee shop, and there was no feeling of crowding at all. If you are a hotel guest, you can order a drink for free, and the barista is also very interesting.
The road from the room to the Cliff Coffee House was built by Taohuawu itself, including the coffee house, so the internal services are really rich.
It’s still very cold in the morning when the sun shines on Jinshan Mountain. There is an oven inside the coffee shop to warm your hands.
Next to it is the Gudu House where Wang Hedi lived before filming the variety show. It is actually a small wooden house. If you are a fan, you can go and check it out.
5. You can see the stars in front of the terrace of your room at night. If you bring a camera, you can take photos with a longer exposure. We took great photos. There are two telescopes in the lobby where we can watch them with everyone and let the staff pick us up.
In fact, if you walk from your room to the lobby, it only takes less than 10 minutes. It may be a bit uphill and you need to walk. If you don’t want to leave, you can ask the staff to take care of the pick-up and drop-off. Next, there will be hiking projects at the B&B, which I am looking forward to.
Some tips:
1. When we checked in, one side of the starry sky ceiling curtain was broken, so we could only open one side. If both sides were opened, the effect would definitely be better.
2. You can’t order takeout here, and breakfast is included in your accommodation. We need to eat lunch and dinner here, yak hotpot. The two of us ate half of it and left a lot. The portions are large, the beef is indeed delicious, and the stir-fry dishes taste quite average. If you stay for a long time, you may get tired of eating. You can consider some cost-effective set meals.
3. You can set up a small supermarket or something like that, which is more convenient for buying some daily necessities.
