Tiny boats of the villagers move around all the time; a painter’s paradise for innovative paintings and sketches. Villagers may provide dingy rides for the guests on request. The interiors of the house are thoughtfully done by the owner himself who is a retired Merchant Navy Captain with eye soothing lights that match the quiet surroundings & serene atmosphere.
