About.

The term ‘Native Place’ in India means one’s ancestral home or village. It is a place where an entire family converges during vacations and other occasions to spend time together. For generations, native place has played a pivotal role of a sacred waterhole which kept families together and traditions alive.

The Native Place guesthouse is an attempt to recreate this anatomy of an ancestral home with all the goodness of India’s simple country life. Come and enjoy home-stay at Native Place, and relish tasty home-cooked meals under a tree; explore gardens laden with fruits and vegetables; watch birds and butterflies and wander aimlessly around the lake and hills ... Welcome to home-stay at Native Place.
