Xingping Our Inn: Stay at countryside in Xingping

Middle in March, my wife and I went to Xingping, a small town after 3 days in Yangshuo. We chose Our Inn, a small guesthoust at countryside, which is in a village named Dahebei. It's not easy to find and we were wrong to think it easy, and didn't print out the adress. Fortunately, we got a card of Our Inn from a restaunrant. After we cross the river from the xingping pier, a woman was waiting for us at the village pier and helped with our luggage. The trail to Our Inn was very muddy after rainning. We followed the woman, after 5 minutes, we arrived.
We were a bit hungry, after check-in, we had juice and toast from them. The orange juice was perfect, fresh and sweet. The girl at the Our Inn told us the orange was just from the vlliage. The local people make life by planting fruit. No wonder we saw many orchards on the way.
Our room was on 3F, wood floor and wood bed, desk, picture frame, mirror frame, every thing is wood. My wife like wood stuff. The view from the back window is ok, but out of the room is wonderful. The room is nice and very clean. TV is Chinese, no English channel.
A small laundry room is at the corner in the garden, it is free and do it yourselfe. The green and clean garden faces to the karst mountains and 2 mimutes walk to the Li River.
Thw owner Shirly speak good English. She is very friendly and helps us with tours.
We stayed 3 nights at Our Inn. It was good experience to walk in the village, see people working at field, old man walk with buffalo back home in late afternoon.
