home to
yourself.
A farmstay where silence isn’t empty — it’s full of birdsong, warm chai, and the sound of rain on laterite.
Chiplun, Maharashtra
A farmstay where silence isn’t empty — it’s full of birdsong, warm chai, and the sound of rain on laterite.
Tucked into five acres of Konkan hillside, the retreat sits where forest canopy gives way to paddy fields and river. No neighbours, no traffic, no signal — by design.
Every structure follows the contour of the land. Laterite stone, reclaimed teak, terracotta tile — sourced within fifty kilometres. Architecture that disappears so the landscape can speak.
“We created a space where silence isn’t empty. It’s full of life — allowing you to finally hear yourself think.”
Yogesh Mainkar, Founder
Breakfast arrives between 8 and 11. Chai is left at your door at first light. The menu is written each morning by the cook and the garden together — Konkani recipes older than any cookbook.
Walk the morning trail through forest canopy. Sit with a book on the veranda. Join the harvest. Or do absolutely nothing — that’s the point.
