Once you reach Kalimpong the cab will drive you down to the Doon valley Bidhyang through the Reli River . There are twelve cottages from where you can choose.If you already booked one of them than you will be received by the respective staff of the cottage. The cottages or resorts are located on the banks of the river Reli river and gives you the best view mountain tops , green surroundings. The resort is bordered with mountains and lush greenery on all sides and has a waterfall just about 5 minutes where you can enjoy a bath!!! If you are lucky enough to witness the rainfall, the clouds coming down from the over the mountain will give you a surprise and the darker light with the sounds of river calls of crickets will make your journey worthy.

The temperature is pleasant .In the month of May days are pleasant and comfortable and nights are cool and beautiful, you are suggested to keep wind cheater or a shawl if you feel cold . Rainfall further reduces the temperature but to a comfortable level. In winter months, it is quite cold. You will be served simply but fresh and tasty foods by the staffs of the cottage and the people from the hills are really polite and amicable nature . the good thing about them is that they are always cheerful and helpful. One should learn from them how to greet the guests and how to be happy and cheerful always . The cottages have both double bedded and four bedded clean and warm rooms along with veranda which has few chairs and tables from where visitors can experience magnificent view .

The restaurant is just 2 minutes walk from the room but the walk is even enjoyable in the cool and peaceful environment. Apart from Dong you can also visit several other places ,Delo, Lava Rishyap, Durpin etc if you manage time and budget, however its not too costly to visit these places are nearby and can be covered in a day trip. The hanging bridge joining the two ends of the Reli river is also outstanding.
