Ngapuh Homestead is home to a working farmhouse and a welcoming community lodge, which is a nonprofit initiative, a grassroots effort to enrich life in Kampung Nyegol through thoughtful tourism and workshops.
Jerome (Lelem), a Bidayuh permaculturist, and Charlotte (Lottie), a British trained architect, live and work year round on site at their self built Red River Farmhouse. Together they grow food, raise animals and lead design projects that celebrate local craft.
Life here is grounded in care for the land and a commitment to supporting the Bidayuh community. Visitors are invited not simply as guests, but as active participants in a shared experience that supports and uplifts the community.
Join us. Stay. Learn. Create.
