For the rest of your life

Village Trip

A fascinating three hour trip that includes a walk through the tranquil surroundings of a typical Hindu village that is hardly touched by modern life. In an area famous for its political awareness, we can enjoy the time-honoured rhythms of agricultural life and witness: the collection of salt-water muscles from the backwaters; the farming of extensive vegetable fields owned by the village co-operative using traditional methods; the extraordinary gymnastic display of harvesting areca nuts (used in paan) from the tall palm trees. You can visit three ancient temples and there will also be a chance to take a ferry ride on the river and savour some fresh toddy!

"On the unexplored northern part of the Malabar coast and flanked by a freshwater lagoon is this near-perfect heaven of peace and pampering. The cottages are designed and built along the traditional fisherman's thatched huts but each on with enough comforts to keep a five-star groupie enthralled."
