1. Weekend Escape: Recharge by the pond

Imagine stepping onto our dew-kissed lawn as the first light of dawn paints the sky in pastel hues. You join a gentle yoga flow beside the still waters of our pond, inhaling the earthy scent—then reward yourself with a lavish Bengali thali served where every bite tastes like home.

2. The Flavours of Bengal: Culinary Tours

Between tastings of Kosha Mangsho’s rich spices and Chingri Malaikari’s creamy sweetness, you’ll discover the stories behind each dish—and leave hungry only for more.

3. Pond-Side Picnics: Romance by the Water

Envision a low wooden table set on the grassy banks, fringed with woven mats and flickering lanterns. A wicker basket opens to reveal hot Luchi-Alur Dom, hand-rolled Sandesh, and chilled mocktails, all meant to be shared under a canopy of rustling bamboo leaves. It’s the kind of lakeside date where time slows, and every stolen glance feels like poetry.

4. Festival at the Farmhouse:

As autumn nears, our rustic pandal rises against the sky for Durga Puja—candles flicker around clay idols, evening arti chants join the wind, and communal plates of bhog bring families—and strangers—together in festive joy.

5. Pet-Friendly Stays: Your Pooch’s Dream Day

Hear the excited barks as your furry friend bounds across our shaded lawns, tail wagging at every garden corner. Later, treat them to “Pawsta” in miniature bowls at our restaurant, then let them splash in their private pet pool while you sip a cool sherbet. Between weekly Bark & Brunch socials and guided leash-free play sessions, your pooch might decide they never want to leave.

6. Monsoon Magic: Cozy in the Rain

Experience the gentle drumming of rain on thatched roofs as you curl up in our teakwood lounge with a steaming bowl of Khichuri and a dollop of Payesh. Challenge companions to a round of carrom or chess by lantern light, then wander out in gumboots to watch the pond’s surface ripple with every drop. Here, the monsoon isn’t gloomy—it’s an invitation to slow down and savor warmth.

7. Off-Season Secrets: Peace & Savings

Between June and August, Palli Bangla takes on a hushed beauty—morning mist veils our bamboo groves, and secret hammocks sway in quiet corners. Guests this season enjoy exclusive room rates and discover hidden viewpoints perfect for catching sunrise colors unseen by high-season crowds. It’s the insider’s chance to claim your own slice of serenity.

8. Farm-to-Table: Fresh & Local Produce

Step through our vegetable garden gates to meet the farmers who coax mustard greens and lady’s finger from Bengal’s red soil. Taste the difference in chutneys made from sun-ripened mangoes plucked just hours before, and pumpkin curries simmered in age-old earthen pots. Each menu shift celebrates the harvest, so every meal feels like a direct connection to the land.

9. Freedom Feast: Independence Day (15th August)

At dawn, the lawn hums with excitement as the tricolour rises to the strains of our live band. Kids craft miniature flags and parade around blooming bougainvillea at 10 AM, then families gather for a fusion lunch—tender Kosha Mangsho, vibrant Tricolor Pulao, and silky Misti Doi (just ₹499/pp). As evening falls, local artistes breathe life into patriotic classics, reminding us why freedom tastes as sweet as celebration.
