Our staff of 4 male and 1 female from the local villages, who take care of house hold, farming, cooking, and taking care of our guests.
  A quintessential offbeat getaway to unwind yourself" with around 1000 feet stretch of river all to yourself!
  Rustic theme is throughout the architecture; rooms made of rubble, mud and wood. Roofed outdoor kitchen and dining with stone, wood and bamboo interiors. A gazebo overlooking the tingling river is such a satisfying spot to chill out day and night where time doesn't seem to exist when you are lulled by the soothing voices of nature, the tingling lashes of the river, and melodious chirping of the birds. Besides these there are other chillout spots like a rustic patio with a rising bamboo backdrop, where you can have your chai or drinks. Hammock and bamboo chairs for your lazy late night chats...and more.
  You can do a lot of things to make your day full of joy here, like, morning walk beside the river, walk through the village to get the taste of local living, go up to the mountain to have a beautiful view of the valley, sit and chill in Gajeebo to enjoy Sunrise and Sunset, take bath in the natural river ponds.
  
  The main attraction of our site is a beautiful and adventurous 30 min. walk through the jungle and nature to an unknown Waterfall.
  Our open Garden Kitchen which is the heart of our property where rare birds perch up to give you company while you relish your meal. Experimenting with food and communicating with our guests is the main theme for us and Self cooking is further a new fun here, if you like, with the music you want. We have yummy veg and non veg ( Separate ) meals available at the property along with grill and barbecue.
  In this huge piece of land we have only 5 rooms with a capacity of Max. 22 people. Already started creating campground ( almost finished) and another small stone cottages ( will be finished in the next 6 months.
  We are in between the valley so the temperature is very comfortable and charming through out the year ..Not so Warm in peak Summer and Not so Chilled in Peak Winters.
