We remain small and exclusive, so that our guests can enjoy the property in its natural surroundings, get personal attention and have a memorable holiday.

There are a variety of activities you can enjoy during your stay, and the peace and tranquility of the farm and the jungle will help you to relax and unwind. The Kothavalas invite you to share their distinctive home and enjoy a unique experience.

    "Excellent stay"

    It was really good. We felt our time flew away very quickly. One day is not enough to feel the place and their hospitality. Our kids loved the stay and didn't want to go home.

    Good hospitality. Great food. Smiling faces. Great place to stay with family, especially kids.

    "Pleasant Niche"

    As a keen naturalist, I am constantly exploring places to stay with appropriate wildlife ethos/atmosphere. I enjoyed my stay here for the access it provides to their wonderful, wildlife rich 42 acre property and accommodations in rustic accommodations, widely spread in this space. The owners are very friendly and hospitable, as are the staff. Thank you for the great time and I hope to visit again soon.
