GUEST REVIEWS

The Zanskar Courtyard is a beautiful and comfortable homestay built by Sonam Dawa in 2020-2022. It is located in the village of Shagar Yokma, some 15km northwest of Padum in the valley of the Stod River. It is an ideal base for many day hikes and longer treks, as well as for visiting Buddhist gompas, in particular the Sani gompa (with its pre-Tibetan Buddhist statues) and the rarely visited, but spectacular Zongkhul gompa. Next to the homestay, a small cheese factory, also created by Sonam Dawa, produces a very tasty cheese made with the milk of dzomo, a female hybrid of yak and cattle raised above 3600m.

Zanskar Courtyard is such an amazing place to stay. Sonam Dawa and his wife and their dog Pintu are such sweet people. They made us so comfortable at their stay. They cooked such amazing organic food. In such a remote place like Zanskar they provided us with the best of facilities. They were pet-friendly. They were like family. They make some amazing cheese as well. If you plan on Zanskar do go here and stay. I promise they will take care of you so well.
