* There are 8 wooden houses at 1500B per night. These are nice!!! They come with a lounge area and separate bedroom / bathroom. These would work well for families, and would sleep 4 (with 2 in the ‘lounge’ area on extra beds.
* There are 11 standard rooms at 600B per night. They come with fridge, ensuite, tv etc.
* The website also has a ‘tent area’, but I didn’t ask them about this yet.
* Please let me know your booking requirements – first come, first served!!!
If we fill the Maneenaksen, we will overflow to the Phu Proud resort (around 2km away)

I won’t contact them until I know if we need them, but they seem to have around 9 rooms. I have a further option if that fills up.
Pasang (and Lamphun) is known for it’s temples, so you might want to spend some time catching up on Buddhist culture. The town also has a local cotton weaving industry… – apparently!
Directions: Take the Superhighway south in the direction of Lamphun. Go over the flyover at the junction with Big C Lamphun and turn right at the next traffic light (around 21km from the outer ring road). Cross the railway junction and turn left following signs to Pasang (Highway #116). The road is dead straight for a while until it bends to the right. After the corner, follow hash signs RIGHT from the 2nd set of traffic lights.
If you are travelling from the canal road area, it may be better for you to use the new extension to the canal road bypassing Hang Dong.

Run(s): The outstation will have a regular CSH3 outstation run, and for the braver, a longer run. Both runs are A->B and will start at 3pm. Please be at the resort by 2:30 to allow time for hash cash & to travel to the start of the runs.
