Farmweekends

The Farm House

The Farm House is located at a vantage point in the farm offering a panoramic view of the lake and hillocks all around.

The farm house is built in traditional South Indian style architecture with grand stone pillars, a spacious veranda and an open to sky sitting room and is furnished with antique furniture and fixtures to give it the “olde worlde” charm.

Welcoming the guests is an antique jhoola in the drawing room with an open to sky courtyard at the background. The planters chair, the wooden gable from a Chettinad home, the mud–plastered walls and terracotta flooring takes one back in time.

To one side of the Drawing room is the cozy little bar counter while on the other side is the Dining Hall with a Royal Dining Table. The ante room of the Dining Hall with a traditional Diwan is ideal for after–dinner chatting.

The modern kitchen with all latest cooking equipment forms an extension of the Dining Hall and offers an open invitation to put the chef in you to test if you are in a mood for it.

The two air conditioned bedrooms, the first one elegantly furnished in cane and the second one in traditional Kerala Style including a Four poster bed, offers comfortable accommodation. The wooden–floored Children’s Room doubles up as a Dormitory should there be need to sleep extra persons. Both the bed rooms and the dormitory have modern attached bath with round the clock hot and cold water.

While indoors, the Children’s Room will keep the children and the grown–ups equally occupied with the various activities and entertainments it offers.

The various indoor games include Chess, Carom, Playing cards and various Board games in addition to interactive computer games. For relaxed entertainment, the room offers DTH TV with over 120 channels and World Space radio with over 40 channels and a Music system with DVD Player. Internet connection and a good collection of Travel and Nature related books in the Library Section also form a part of this room.

The Pavilion overlooking the swimming pool on one side and the lake on the other side is an ideal venue for family get–togethers. During evening the place converts itself into a discotheque letting you shake a leg with your dear ones.

The terrace with a scenic view all around is an ideal venue for bird–watching in the morning hours or to spend a quiet evening absorbing the tranquil beauty of nature in its purest form.

A holiday at Farm Weekends provides you with the rare opportunity to live in harmony with nature and spend quality time with your family and just be yourself.
