Valley Homestay

Nestled in the mountains beside Gulong Gorge Scenic Area in Qingyuan’s Qingxin District, this light-luxury retreat offers a 5-minute walk to the gorge’s main gate, blending seclusion with nature—think morning bird chirps and golden sunset views over the valley. Local farms within a 10-minute walk serve authentic Qingyuan chicken hotpot and mountain-stream fish, pairing rustic flavors with scenic beauty. The homestay balances minimalist design with comfort: themed rooms range from cave-style with raw stone walls to Japanese tatami spaces and tech-savvy suites with smart lighting, all featuring 60-thread-count cotton bedding and memory foam pillows. Outdoor gardens with bougainvillea-lined paths and string lights host fire-side tea or barbecues (advance notice needed), while the lobby offers a tea room, chess area, and projection for group activities. Services include free parking, 24/7 front desk, hairdryers for post-rafting gear, and special arrangements for birthdays/proposals. Book ahead during rafting season (June–August) for discounted tickets; mosquito repellent is provided. With mountain views and thoughtful details, it’s the ideal “just-right” escape for the perfect short getaway.
