OUR 5 HIDDEN GEMS
I've chosen some of our favourite hidden gems that are close to the villa or within easy driving distance - I hope you enjoy them too! OUR LOCAL VILLAGE WALK One of the highlights of many of our guests' stays is to take a walk through our local village with our staff, to see village life and the inside of the traditional residential compounds. From there it's a lovely walk into the beautiful rice fields in the immediate area. GOA GARBA Goa Garba, believed to have been built in the 1100's, means "cave in the belly of the earth". It's a very tranquil walk from the road to the hermitage and it is a nice calm place to spend some time exploring. You are unlikely to see anyone else there. More adventurous guests walk, or run, from the villa. SECRET CAVE TEMPLE & WATERFALL David and I did a bit of exploring one day and happened upon a beautiful little temple hidden in a cave with an underground river. Right next to it (but closer to the road), is a beautiful waterfall. You can park just opposite the laundry - it's worth a visit. PEJENG TRADITIONAL MARKET This smallish food market is frequented by all the Pejeng locals who shop here daily for vegetables, fruit and meat. There is a selection of fruit and vegetables that are foreign to most international visitors, and it's very interesting to see what's on offer. GIANYAR NIGHT MARKET This is a wonderful "live like a local" experience as most of the shoppers are locals and it is priced accordingly. Although there is an indoor market in the day, it is at night - particularly on weekends - when the large market comes alive with different street food, vendors and general milling around and socialising.
