Although Little Forest has only recently opened its rooms, our heart and experience come from more than 20 years of caring for guests. The person who lovingly looks after our guests is Aunt Orn, our family member, who has spent decades welcoming visitors with genuine warmth, attention, and care — just like hosting friends in her own home. Here, you are not looked after by staff, but by family. And it’s something our guests truly feel from the moment they arrive.

Eco Clay Cabins & Rural Chiang Mai Experience Welcome to Little Forest Chiang Mai — a quiet, owner-run retreat where life slows down and nature feels close again. Stay in our hand-built clay cabins, thoughtfully designed for comfort and sustainability, surrounded by a lush permaculture garden. Each day begins gently: wake up to birdsong, and share a seasonal garden-to-table breakfast. Our everyday stay invites you to be part of the rhythm of rural life. Join a daily hands-on workshop led by local artisans and friends — Thai cooking, herbal medicine, traditional massage, woodcarving, or permaculture living. Afternoons are unhurried. Rest in a hammock, play with our cats, borrow a bicycle, or wander through the village and nearby fields. As the sun sets, we gather again for a warm, family-style dinner — sharing food, stories, and simple moments together.All of these experiences — accommodation, garden-to-table breakfast, hands-on workshops, and family-style dinner — are thoughtfully included in the room rate you’ve been quoted. No hidden costs, just simple living, shared moments, and genuine value. Little Forest is not just a place to stay. It’s a place to connect, to learn, and to feel at home. Welcome to your home in Thailand. Simple. Natural. Eco-friendly. 🌱

Just outside Little Forest, guests can enjoy peaceful rice fields and longan orchards — perfect for walking, cycling, or a relaxed stroll. There are several unique local cafés nearby, each with its own character, and Baan Tawai, Chiang Mai’s well-known woodcraft village, is just a short drive away. A stay at Little Forest offers a quiet rural setting, close to nature, local culture, and simple everyday life — away from the crowds.
