My Cottage is a 5-star serviced apartment property set 38.2 kilometres from the Old City centre and 41.1 kilometres from Chiang Mai International Airport, up toward the hills near Mae Kampong village. It holds a 9.3 out of 10 review score across 62 reviews. Uncle Kham figures a score this consistently high, this far from the city, means guests are booking a genuine mountain retreat, not a convenient stopover.
Getting to My Cottage
Both the Old City and the airport sit a proper drive away — 38.2 and 41.1 kilometres respectively — so this is a destination in its own right rather than a base for daily errands. Closer to the property, Mon Teen Tok Camping Resort is 1.21 kilometres away, Saiton Resort 1.57 kilometres, and Mae Kampong Village 1.75 kilometres.
Rooms & What to Expect
Four room types are on file. Signature A (60 square metres, two queen beds) and the Family Room (90 square metres, two single beds plus two queen beds) are both confirmed with a view toward the river. Two further Duplex Waterfall View room variants round out the range — one paired with an additional in-room bathing feature — both built around the same waterfall outlook that gives the pair their name.
Amenities & Facilities
Free Wi-Fi runs through the property, a breakfast-included room plan is available, blackout curtains help with sleeping in after a mountain day, and an airport transfer service covers the long trip up from Chiang Mai International. Check-in runs from 14:30, and check-out is by 11:00 — both later than the standard city-hotel pattern, which makes more sense once the distance up into the hills is factored into an arrival or departure day. Guests planning a same-day flight connection should build real travel time into either end of the stay.
What's Nearby — Temples, Markets & Local Life
Mon Teen Tok Camping Resort sits 1.21 kilometres from the property, Saiton Resort 1.57 kilometres away, and Mae Kampong Village — the traditional hillside village the area is known for — 1.75 kilometres. Mae Kampong Waterfall is 2.55 kilometres out, and Doi Monlan mountain 4.84 kilometres. Down in the city proper, Chiang Mai Night Bazaar is 36.94 kilometres away, Art in Paradise 3D Art Museum 37.3 kilometres, Tha Phae Gate 37.56 kilometres, Wat Chedi Luang 38.28 kilometres, and Wua Lai Walking Street 38.34 kilometres. Anyone staying here should plan the city as a full day trip, not an afternoon errand.
Dining
Specific on-site dining isn't confirmed for this property — guests should plan meals around what the surrounding Mae Kampong area offers, part of the appeal of a stay built around the mountain setting rather than a hotel restaurant.
Other Hotels Nearby
Three other properties sit within the same stretch of hills. La Lanna is just 0.2 kilometres away, a 4-star option at 8.6/10. Morning Star Glamping, 0.6 kilometres out, is also 5-star, at 9/10. Cliffver, also 0.6 kilometres away, is 4-star at 8.4/10.
Guest Reviews
Across 62 reviews, My Cottage holds a 9.3 out of 10 average, with every category well clear of the city norm: cleanliness 9.7/10 (city average 8.9), facilities 9.6/10 (city average 8.8), location 9.4/10 (city average 8.1), staff service 9.7/10 (city average 9), and value for money 9.4/10 (city average 8.4). Uncle Kham reads scores this uniformly high as a strong signal that the mountain-retreat pitch actually delivers on arrival.
Good to Know
Rates have started as low as 2,834 THB a night. Check-in is from 14:30, and check-out is by 11:00 — both later and earlier than the usual city-hotel pattern, worth planning around for a long drive up or down the mountain.
My Cottage is built around its Mae Kampong hillside setting, with river- and waterfall-view rooms and a genuine sense of remove from Chiang Mai's usual pace. For travellers planning a dedicated mountain escape rather than a city base, it's a distinctive, consistently well-reviewed choice.

Smart Neighborhood Radar around My Cottage
Top curated landmarks, heritage temples, artisan cafes, and activities with GPS walking guides.
Mae Kampong Village
A beautifully preserved Karen and Mien hill tribe village at 1,300 metres in the mountains east of Chiang Mai, famous for its miang (fermented tea leaf) production. The village is threaded by a cool stream with a small waterfall, and the entire community runs a highly regarded homestay programme. One of the most authentic and scenic village experiences accessible from Chiang Mai.
San Kamphaeng Hot Springs
A geological marvel 34 km east of Chiang Mai where natural hot springs reach near-boiling temperatures of up to 98°C. The main geyser erupts to 1 metre height. Visitors relax in therapeutic warm mineral pools (cooled to 37–40°C), cook eggs in the boiling springs, receive traditional Thai massages, and enjoy the outdoor spa with mineral mud baths.
Wat Doi Saket
A graceful temple complex atop a small hill east of Chiang Mai, dominated by a gleaming white chedi with an unusual octagonal base. The 200-step naga stairway ascent is rewarded with expansive views over the Ping River valley. The main viharn contains exceptional Lanna-era murals depicting Jataka stories and scenes of ancient Chiang Mai — some of the finest in the region.
San Kamphaeng Handicraft Village
The main road through San Kamphaeng town is flanked by over 100 specialist craft workshops producing Chiang Mai's signature artisan goods: celadon glazed pottery, hand-woven silk and cotton, lacquerware, teak furniture, and hand-painted fans. Most workshops welcome visitors to watch the full production process and purchase directly from the artisans at significantly lower prices than city shops.
Bo Sang Umbrella Village
The 'Umbrella Village' 9 km east of Chiang Mai has crafted hand-painted paper umbrellas for over 150 years. Entire families work in open-fronted workshops — splitting bamboo, stretching sa (mulberry bark) paper, and painting intricate floral and geometric patterns by hand using natural pigments. Every January, the Bo Sang Umbrella Festival attracts visitors from across Asia.
Promenada Resort Mall
The most architecturally distinctive mall in Chiang Mai, designed as a Mediterranean resort village with open piazzas, fountains, and a rooftop terrace overlooking the Ping River floodplain. Houses international brands, an IMAX cinema, a rooftop ice skating rink (open Nov–Jan), and Rimping Supermarket — the best premium grocery store in northern Thailand for imported and organic products.
KM8 Silverware & Lacquerware Workshops
Located on the San Kamphaeng craft highway at kilometre 8, this cluster of traditional workshops produces hand-hammered silverware and intricate lacquered bamboo containers using techniques unchanged for centuries. Open workshops allow visitors to watch silversmiths at work with mallets and stamps, and to purchase jewellery, decorative bowls, and betel nut boxes at workshop prices.
Chiang Mai Science Museum
An interactive science centre designed for curious minds of all ages, covering seismology (Northern Thailand sits on active fault lines), geology, biology, physics, and traditional Thai medicine. Hands-on exhibits encourage experimentation, and the planetarium dome runs regular astronomy shows in Thai and English. Popular for school trips and family days out.
Bua Tong Sticky Waterfalls
Unlike any waterfall on Earth — Bua Tong's travertine limestone deposits create a surface so grippy with calcium carbonate that visitors can walk directly up and down the cascades without slipping. Three tiers of falls surrounded by dense jungle in Chet Si national forest, with natural swimming pools at each level. Truly one of Thailand's most unusual natural attractions.
