'Thekkanat Parayil’, nestles in a very green and unspoilt corner of rural Kerala. Set in the middle of a working farm, it is a house of openness and light, serenaded by birds, shaded by ancient trees and lulled by gentle breeze from the backwaters. The house has four large airy bedrooms for guests - including a wheel chair friendly one. The rooms need no air-conditioning. The bathrooms attached to the bedrooms offer both cold and warm water options. Rooms: 4 bed rooms with attached bathrooms, family archives, library, 40 acre farm, village walks, canoeing, country boat rides, village fishing, indoor/outdoor games, old churches and temples.
