Unwind and relax at Rumah Richard - a true gem in the beautiful Bali rice fields

The way towards Rumah Richard already gives an idea of how special your stay there will be.

You drive through a small, beautiful village literally into the rice fields. The two cottages look directly onto the fields and Mount Agung and Mount Batur.

It will be a very special experience for you to stay in a wooden house - and when you sit on your veranda in the morning and watch the sun rise, you will be able to really feel Bali deep inside you.

The space

Rumah Richard consists of two wooden cottages to the left and right of the private pool and garden. Each cottage has a beautiful veranda overlooking the rice fields and the mountains, where you can meet and also have your meals.

A separate little house at the end of the garden houses the kitchen. You can enjoy your days by the pool or look forward to go on all kinds of excursions.

We provide a small welcome pack of coffee, tea, sugar, and creamer to help you until your first purchase at the supermarket.

For those eager to explore the local area, Rumah Richard is ideally located. The surrounding village of Lodtunduh is renowned for its artistic heritage and tranquil atmosphere, offering visitors a glimpse into traditional Balinese life. Guests can visit nearby art galleries and workshops, participate in cultural ceremonies, or simply enjoy a leisurely stroll through the rice paddies and rural landscapes.

Situated alongside the rice fields, it also offers an ideal setting for a leisurely morning walk where you can engage with locals and rice farmers while enjoying picturesque volcano views.

Just a short drive away, the bustling town of Ubud awaits with its array of attractions, including the Ubud Monkey Forest, Ubud Palace, and vibrant Ubud Market, just to name a few. The area is also known for its wellness offerings, with numerous yoga studios, spas, and holistic centers available for relaxation and rejuvenation.

Rumah Richard is centrally located for all kinds of excursions - Ubud is only about 10 to 15 minutes away by scooter, the east coast (e.g. Sanur) about half an hour, and the west coast (e.g. Seminyak) about 45 minutes, depending on Bali traffic, of course.

Please note, we are located in Lodtunduh, outside Ubud with all its hustle and bustle, so you will definitely need either a scooter or a car.

Guest access

Rumah Richard is a private property with its own lockable entrance. The two cottages, both fully lockable, are exclusively at your disposal, along with the kitchen, garden, and private pool. Nothing is shared with other guests, ensuring complete privacy during your stay.

THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT: The regular check-in time is from 2 pm to 10 pm. We also have a safe lock for the key for late arrivals and in case of delays, but we MUST know your approximate arrival time so that we can prepare everything accordingly.


*****


Little offerings for the gods are brought to Rumah Richard every morning, as is traditional in Bali. Please allow the ladies to enter - it is important for maintaining the very positive atmosphere of the place.

*****


Our pool attendant, Kadek, visits twice a week - it is essential to provide him access to maintain the pool's beauty.

*****


Two friendly cats, Susi and Nelly, live next door and may visit Rumah Richard. They’re curious and sweet, often stopping by to explore or say hello.

Their playful presence adds charm, but if you'd prefer they stay outside, please keep the doors closed.

They’re harmless and typically return home soon after visiting.

You will definitely need a scooter or a car. We are happy to assist you with a reservation.

A large parking area for scooters and/or a car is available in front of the house.
