The Farm

A real Cambodian
family farm.

Mr. Chay Chet built five bungalows on his rice farm in 2015 and started welcoming guests. Sothy has farmed this land since 1991. The rice variety is Phka Rumduol, the Cambodian jasmine that has won World's Best Rice five times.

Guests plant or harvest depending on the season, walk the bunds with the farmers, sit down for a family lunch, and sleep beside the paddy. It is a working farm, not a resort.

If you want quiet, real food, and a short drive to Angkor Wat, this is a good place to stay.
