Lchang Nang Retreat

Lchang Nang Retreat is a chance to reset, a secluded escape on the roof of the world, overlooking the tranquil Nubra River.

Spend hours meditating with monks at Samstanling Monastery or find your flow with sunset yoga on the Sumur dunes. Couples can cycle the mountain roads by day, and by night, dine alone with a five-course meal or enjoy a movie outdoors under a blanket. Learn the tricks of Ladakhi cuisine and feast on barbecued snacks by the bonfire. Stay in one of 17 homely cottages, with their modern minimal designs but warm and insulating traditional architecture, and stargaze on your private patio every night.

What we love

A beautiful, peaceful getaway in the Himalayas far away from the noise of urban life
All 17 cottages are bright and spacious, with their own private patio areas
Find inner peace with sunset yoga by the river and mindfulness sessions with local monks
There are endless hiking routes to explore, and you can take a cycling trip along the highest drivable mountain road in the world
From a five-course dinner for two, to handmade Khambir bread and butter tea, to snacks by the bonfire, the food here is always exciting and embodies the best of the region

Difficult to get to compared to other resorts in the region, being over 3 hours from the airport, but the remoteness is part of the charm

The hotel does not offer rafting experiences like some others in the region do, but we think there are more than enough hiking and biking routes to satisfy the avid adventurer

Being so remote, there are no restaurants nearby, but we think the food experiences at the hotel are varied and exciting enough that you wouldn’t want to go anywhere else

Families are welcome and the family cottages villas have two bedrooms separated by double doors, and king beds that can be separated into twins, with the option to add a third bed. Children can also enjoy rock painting and scavenger hunts with the hotel staff.

The villas are built using traditional architectural methods with locally available resources. The retreat is solar powered, they channel glacier water into the irrigation, and plastic uses are kept to a minimum.

Set in the Nubra Valley in Teggar Village, overlooking the banks of the Nubra River, a 3-hour drive from Kushok Bakula Rimpochee Airport in Leh. An easy base for exploring this remote corner of the Himalayas.

What our travellers say

We went to Sri Lanka as a three-generation family of three. The superb trip was organised by Samanthie and the team and it's difficult to see how it could have been bettered.

Red Dot organised the most wonderful 3-week holiday for us. Samanthie built a trip around the amazing sights we had requested visiting, together with her own suggestions and a wide mix of hotels, which gave us the flavours of both traditional Sri Lanka and the sleek, stylish contemporary version of the country. Our Driver made the whole experience incredibly special for us.

I can’t thank Cherylle and the Red Dot team enough for their meticulous planning of our family holiday to India travelling through Rajasthan over Christmas. As a family of all adults, every suggestion from daily activities to hotel choices was simply perfect. We travelled through Delhi, Ranthambore (an unforgettable tiger safari!), Jaipur and Agra and I truly feel we experienced the very best of each destination while moving at a relaxed, well thought out pace

My partner arranged a holiday trip at fairly short notice to Sri Lanka with Red Dot on a recommendation, Samanthie was so patient & helpful with her suggested itinerary which we followed with some minor amendments. On arrival at Colombo we met Manjula our chauffeur/guide who was absolutely brilliant!

Dulmini and the Red Dot Team arranged a fantastic trip for us around Assam and North East India. Faultless service. I cannot recommend them more highly.

Wonderful company. Our holiday in Sri Lanka was perfect. Local knowledge made all the difference

We looked up, and communicated with umpteen tour operators. Though Red Dot seemed to have offices in Sri Lanka and the UK, they seemed to have the best reviews. We were fortunate enough to correspond with Cherylle, who not only assured us of the safety of our friend, but created a personalised, and flexible, itinerary which we could not have done ourselves.

A 14-day tour with Red Dot Tours was the perfect antidote to the bleak UK winter. After a glowing recommendation from a friend, we contacted Red Dot Tours and were not disappointed. Our consultant, Lahiru, curated a seamless itinerary. Throughout the planning phase, Lahiru was incredibly responsive; the final itinerary—delivered via a user-friendly 'Guest Portal'—was impressively detailed, covering every hotel stay and excursion.
