The riverside ridges at Sayan, Kedewatan and Payangan hold the largest estates and the deepest valley views, a short drive from the centre; Jalan Bisma and Penestanan put the smaller houses within reach of the Ubud palace, temple dance performances and the Campuhan ridge walk on foot.
The dry season from April to October is the settled window, with July, August and the Christmas period the busiest; the wet months from November to March bring afternoon downpours, greener terraces and far more space.
