The backyard is our vegetable garden. We have a regularly maintained garden growing that we can use to cook for our guests. All your food will come from our local produce and stores. If you are interested, you can ask to take seeds / plant cuttings of vegetables that we grow. The front yard of the property has the traditional arecanut and coconut trees and feels like your regular rural farm. You can test your badminton skills on a clay court. As you would expect, we have cattle and geese in the property. Our cattle provide milk for consumption. The geese spend their time in the neighboring lake and visit the home on rare occasions. They, however, stroll around in the property – generally in a line – making for a tranquilizing visual. Of course, no farm is complete without our friendly dogs. We have our mild-mannered Kangana, who would accompany you for walks and her son Gunda, whose full-time job is to guard the property.

The area is in the heart of the Western Ghats and is surrounded by hills and winding roads. You will find nature at its best here. There are walking paths, rural roads for cycling and some local trek routes that we can recommend.
