Wangdue Phodrang Hotels : Wangdue Eco Lodge

Description

Wangdue Eco Lodge is a pioneering eco-tourism project in Bhutan, launched in March 2015. Situated at an altitude of 1459m in Dhamina village, the lodge overlooks the beautiful Ngashigaykha village, a confluence and the majestic Wangduephodrang  Dzong. On a clear morning, one can see perennially snow-capped Gangchen Tag (6784m) behind the Dzong.

The lodge is built on the concept of Green Architecture. Its rainwater harvesting, solar heating, biogas and waste recycling plants contribute meaningfully in reducing carbon emission.

To create lodge infrastructure, an ancestral home is preserved in its pristine form, with a lounge and bar on the ground floor while owner family continues to live upstairs. Another building with a Dining, Kitchen, conference rooms, and the four cottages has been built in close semblance to traditional styles.

Each Cottage comprises of two suites which is self-contained for a couple or family, with an option of twin or king-sized beds. Along with its large dressing and bathroom space, the bedroom leads onto a large wrap-around balcony with a view of its organic farm, surrounding villages and magnificent Wangduephodrang Dzong.

The Lodge grows and produces its own herbs, vegetables, free-range eggs, milk, cheese, butter & local rice for authentic Bhutanese cuisines and signature dishes. It also serves home baked bread, ground coffee & freshly plucked mint tea.

Wangdue Eco Lodge not only strives to provide impeccable services and unique experience to its esteemed guests instead it also helps local communities with creation of employment opportunities and also its commitment to environment remains on top of the agenda, to create Green Community that ensures low carbon footprint.
