[2024 She County Stay] Travel Guide for Xinan Hermitage Ancient House Hotel (Updated Sep)
In Huangshan, I stayed in the dreamlike Huizhou~
This time visiting the ancient city of Huizhou, I was truly amazed!
Walking along the stone-paved roads of the ancient city, exploring the alleys, a sense of destiny overwhelmed me~
Needed to stay a night in the ancient city.
After a long selection, I chose a homestay that caught my eye at first glance.
Located on Doushan Street in the ancient city of Huizhou, surrounded by delicious food~ It's great for strolling around~
It is transformed from three Huizhou-style residences, with a unified interior style, and each has its unique features~
The biggest surprise was staying in a courtyard room this time. I've always been curious about the second floor of Huizhou residences, and I got to experience it this time~
Although it is a Huizhou-style residence, the interior is fully modernized, with comfortable beds, bright and exquisite decor, and spacious and comfortable rooms combined with the wooden structure of the old house, exuding tranquility and harmony everywhere~
The room thoughtfully provided a hand-drawn city walk map of Shexian County and local fragrant pears and apples🍎. The details are really great!!
Oh, by the way, the room also has a super large bathtub🛁. On a quiet night, leisurely soaking in the bath is so pleasant~
In the morning, greeted by the sunlight in the lingering woody aroma, stretching lazily to get up and savoring a delicate Huizhou-style breakfast🥣
The homestay aunt warmly greeted every guest like family. The wontons she made herself were delicious, paired with a cup of black tea, isn't it wonderful? The fresh meat zongzi was also extremely tasty~
The homestay offers unique intangible cultural heritage experiences and health and wellness activities~
If you have time, you can calm down and experience it, it should be quite special~~
It is worth mentioning that the Huizhou-style afternoon tea is also very good. A sip of green tea seems to wash away all the fatigue~
The small courtyard naturally makes people calm down!
Here, one forgets all worries and leaves with deep, beautiful memories~

I finally found the homestay hidden in the ancient town of Huizhou
The reason why the homestay is charming is that it is not just a place to rest during the journey, but also a space with stories, soul, and resonance with people. Taking the children to the ancient city of Huizhou to understand the past and present of Huizhou, I unexpectedly discovered this treasure homestay hidden in the alley.

As its name suggests, the homestay is hidden from the world, mixed in the alleys of Doushan Street in the ancient city. The overall living environment of the homestay is very peaceful. It is a Huizhou-style homestay featuring intangible cultural heritage experiences and health preservation.
The homestay is equipped with a courtyard, tea room, conference room, restaurant, etc., and has a total of 11 rooms with different styles.
A family of three chose the family room. The room has solid wood floors, an independent tea room, a clothes rack area, and a refrigerator. The overall space is relatively large, and the bathroom has a bathtub and is separated from wet and dry areas.
The homestay offers welcome fruits and the afternoon tea provided is Huizhou specialty pastries. My favorite is the homestay's breakfast, the buns are actually handmade by the aunt.
