For mountain lovers like us, popular Hill stations like Darjeeling and Gangtok hold a special place in our hearts. Many of us were introduced to the mountains for the very first time during a summer holiday in Darjeeling. Although we still love these crowd-pleasers, we seek some time away from the crowd and the hustle-bustle as we grow older. This is where Offbeat Kurseong Homestay at Upper Sittong becomes the new favorite of tired millennials. It is a quaint little hamlet, tucked safely in the lap of nature. Filled with beautiful orange orchards and pine trees, Sittong is a place where you’ll see rhododendrons at every corner of the mountain trails. A small, sleepy hamlet where you can collect enough oxygen to endure another long session of workload.
