Homestead 

Ngapuh Homestead

Ngapuh Homestead sits on Bidayuh Dayak land by the river with the slopes of the Bungo Range Rainforest Reserve rising behind. This is a place for ecotourism and natural building where the forest is both neighbour and teacher. All year we host gatherings with guests and visiting architects, designers and entrepreneurs who come to share skills and ideas that inspire cultural exchange.

Here modern life meets traditional living. At the heart is our Community Lodge, opened in 2023, a space built and shaped by many hands. This is where we welcome guests and hold craft workshops that carry forward Bidayuh knowledge and traditions from farming and foraging to cooking and handmade craft.

Beside the lodge stands Red River Farmhouse, home to Lelem, a Bidayuh permaculturist, and his wife Lottie, a British architect, together they care for the homestead and farm.

Ngapuh Homestead is not just a place to stay. It is a living community. A place to cook, plant, forage, design and build together. When you visit you become part of the community supporting Kampung Rejoi Nyegol.

Come join us. Stay. Learn. Create.

Community Lodge

Our Community Lodge has 2 guest rooms and a central space where the community can rest and work. Each room sleeps up to 4 people on single mattresses arranged on the floor so we can host up to 8 guests in total. Each room has its own private toilet and shower.

We are off grid in the rainforest and only reachable by boat. There are no shops nearby so please bring all the essentials you will need for your stay.

Guests are welcome to use the outdoor kitchenette which has a sink, hob, basic pots and utensils along with a BBQ area. It is ideal for boiling water, making tea or preparing light snacks.
