Who can relate, folks! Wanting to find a weekend getaway that's "a retreat amidst the hustle yet free from worldly noise," this homestay in Ningbo instantly stole my heart~ The "Simple" courtyard is anything but simple.
A private villa with its own yard, just 300+ per person—this price💰 is truly hard to resist~
🏡 Floral Villa Luxe·Simple Homestay (Cicheng Ancient Town Branch)
Gatherings|Pet-friendly|The owner is as kind as she is beautiful😚
Approx. 50m southwest of Banpu Village Bus Stop, Cicheng Town, Jiangbei District, Ningbo
🌿【Relaxing in Nature】Renting the entire villa feels amazing! At night, we set up a projector, wrapped ourselves in blankets with my bestie to watch old movies, even forgot to turn on the AC (natural breeze is truly the best!).
🍲【Savoring Nature’s Warmth】Special shoutout to breakfast! A table full of food for 10: freshly ground soy milk so fragrant it’s irresistible, crispy fried dough sticks, and steaming osmanthus rice cakes…
🎉【Endless Fun】During the day, I dragged my friends hiking in the back mountains—fog drifting over bamboo tips like milk, every photo looking cinematic. At dusk, we set up a tent in the yard to catch crayfish—even a clumsy person like me caught three!
✨【Nearby Hidden Gems】
▪️Banpu Village: Cobblestone paths and old houses, the graffiti wall at the village entrance is a must-see! Wearing a white dress makes photos look like you’ve time-traveled to the '80s. There’s also a quaint teahouse at the village end—sip tea and zone out all afternoon~
▪️Cicheng Ancient Town: Completely avoids crowds! Walk cobblestone streets, see restored ancient government office scenes, and kids learning to make rice cakes—the air even smells of rice~ (Psst: The ancient ginkgo tree in the backyard is breathtaking in autumn!)
▪️Hemudu Ruins Museum: Free! Guides explain everything from rice farming to stilt houses—you’ll leave as a "primitive culture" expert! Behind the museum, see an actual archaeological site—it’s like unearthing 7,000-year-old pottery yourself!
▪️Liangzhu Scenic Area: Stroll riverside paths by day, watch black-canopied boats glide under stone bridges. At night, visit the Liangzhu Museum to learn the "Butterfly Lovers" tale—the rooftop bungee jump had my legs shaking (I quietly passed by😂).
