I personally wouldn't recommend going to the Bungalow. Whilst it was beautiful, there were three-or-so, small rooms open to the public and not much of interest to us. If you are into this type of thing - do your research - then perhaps you will enjoy it. The train ride, however, was amazing, and our guide was lovely. We had a great day and were not disappointed.
