HOW IT ALL BEGAN ?
20 years ago when everybody would be racing towards the cities
or beaches, Godfrey Lawrence did the reverse. Today, his regular
guests vouch for the place and are grateful to him for creating
a paradise in Goa for de-stressing. This probably
is the only resort in Goa which does not encourage TINY
TOTS upto the age of 7 years for the benefit of the guests,
who crave for the peace & quiet. Godfrey says,''Its hard for
his pocket, but its a principle that cannot waver. Today many come
for the principle that is maintained.''
The farm sector helps the kitchen with some of the vegetables,
meat products and has its regular patronage for mangoes, kokum,
jambul, cahew and its nuts, besides, coconuts, bananas, papayas,
custard-apples and pineapples, etc.
The Food !! That being Godfrey's strong point,
made him venture into a far getaway. A Chef by hobby, comes from
a family who were in food business. The Goan and Portuguese cuisine
in its almost organic preparations is something to cherish about.
You can even get some tips for easy cooking.
The Accomodation !! This 25 acre property has only
12 ethnic cottages, blending quaintly into the lush green landscape.
The extra large beds, comfortable mattresses, extra pillows and
the rustic furniture. Traditions meets modernity in the attached,
almost open-air bathrooms. The spring water with excellent pressure
is very soothing.
Its a lovely place to unwind. Read a book, walk around the farm,
trek around the countryside or steep mountains, one can even go
fishing or take a boat and lookout for langurs. During low tides
try your skills at catching fishes or shell-fish. Its a treat excellent
for the mind.
Enjoy your stress-free holiday in Goa! Its simply a Monsoon
Safari designed for you at a price you will never want to believe!
