No Internet & No TV ”

Property is nice and outside city limits. But if you wants to work after day outing then there is no internet. JIOFI provided by owner didn't work after multiple attempts. JIO & other networks are slow. No data sometime. After day out, you may wants to catchup some news or kids wanna enjoy TV but bad news is TV didn't work. After multiple calls to owner we gave up and hence no TV.

So we stayed here during monsoon and my God!! The weather was so chilly and perfect! The view of tea estate is great and you cannot get this view in expensive places, like even club Mahindra. We saw the clouds toching the hills in front of us and bisons grazing there. The place is very beautiful, green and cozy. You can click lot of good photos here. At night there will be campfire and home-cooked food for breakfast and dinner. You can ask for tea anytime you want. They have 2 doggos, Stephie and Bruni, who are extremely well behaved and I had a blast with them! Would 100% visit this place again

The resort is located in the midst of green valley, you will have a great view from ur room. All the staffs including manager Mr. Vivek, Supervisor Mr. Sheik and owner, will be soo kind and helpful to hear your needs completely even at odd hours. The resort is located out of the main town, hence it will have great weather and free from noise, you will also get to see bison sightings from your room.

The Staff are friendly and kind. The owner is a cheerful person to meet. The location is very close to the bus stop. If you have light-weight baggage, can walk to the location or may need to hire a auto. The staff can make food if requested early. The location has good view. There are pets to play with if you are pet-friendly person. The wifi is an issue when it rains and remote working shall be challenging. To unwind and relax, this is always the place to go to.
