The space
The space
Named for the 200-year-old Banyan tree that stands sentinel at Shivom Organic Farms our farmhouse has a large living area and four large bedrooms, all with en-suite bathrooms and a shaded patio. The grounds feature a pool, tennis and basketball courts, a river deck and a lush green lawn for picnics, parties and evening gatherings.
On a typical day, you'll wake up to birdsong. You'll drink your morning chai on the patio as you watch the Surya go by. And after that, the options are endless - do you fancy a picnic on the lawn or a game of Monopoly? A game of tennis or basketball. Make memories with your kids at the play area. A guided tour of the farm. Me-time at the pool. A special sundowner on the river deck.
Or you can get some work done in our quiet little haven away from the chaos. We've got great wifi and a dedicated workspace. Banyan Tree is perfect if you're looking for a quiet getaway to do some deep work.
