Park Mansion - Home Stay in Keezhvaipur - Pathanamthitta, India

That food was a trip in itself! Thank you Mr Thomas for the lovely meals you served us at your Homestay. The food was authentic and absolutely delicious. You were very generous with your portions as well. The only reason we didn't actually stay there was that we were a crew of 12 people and it could house 8. We surely would've if we were fewer people as the rooms looked very spacious and clean. During our visits there we had a chance to soak in the wonderful ambience at this 100 year old home belonging to Mr Thomas's family, every little detail from vintage furniture to the exotic garden preserved and maintained beautifully. Fully recommend this place if you are looking for a nourishing homely stay amidst nature and some history.

Went there as a part of movie project. Fantastic place I've heard from the owner that the property was really thriving and buzzing before covid with all fruit garden and livestock. They are planning to relive the old prestige. Clean place and good rooms. Wonderful hospitality. A cozy place where you can spend couple of days away from the stressful and monotonous city life.

It was such a great place! The place was enshrined in naturalistic luxury and homely aura. It was like staying in a home away from home! The rooms were indeed comfortable but my favourite part was the incredible number of birds including turkey,hens and geese and animals like dogs and guinea pigs! Can't wait for my next stay at this heaven on earth!

This is a quiet and scenic homestay made special by its host Mr Thomas who has travelled the world over the years and is great company. Very comfortable spacious rooms and they serve good food with variety if given time. Its located in a small, but well connected town away from the noise of the city. What i enjoyed the most was sitting in the portico for during the sunset and listening to the sounds of nature.. Something I want to do again soon.

This was a home away from home. Quiet, yet not lonesome because of the thoughtful and caring gestures of the hosts from seeing that every part of the town and the surroundings are explored to the yummmm perfectly made meals. The vast beds with their specially made mattresses ensured that we slept well. The surrounding garden throws up many a surprise to non-Malyalees including cinnamon, rambutan and fig trees. The two-day trip remains a cherished memory. Thank you Ajay, Sherin, Eileen and Toffee, the puppy.

My family and I visited this 100 year old colonial homestay on a hillock with enchanting views. The rooms are spacious, some with wooden floors and every bit is meticulously preserved. It is a great place for a family holiday or get together. Children can play on the lawns or watch farm animals in the fresh clean air away from the bustle of the city. Spend a night here and wake up to bird song!

Just back from this paradise on earth and can't wait to go back. This heritage home has more tales to tell you than you can dream of... this beautifully maintained homestay is indeed a homestay away from the hustle and bustle of the city...yet not far from the city...the verdant ambiance with its exotic plants and fruits and fragrance linger in one's psyche long after one leaves the place...and the lingering taste of homecooked food served hot and fresh is anyone 's dream...Reny ...Mr. Thomas is the ultimate name in courteous hospitality making you feel like family.... Thanks Reny for your affectionate warmth and cordiality... Let the Barrister's homestay continue to give back especially the town dwellers the nostalgic good old days of genuine sincerity and love of God's own country.

We had an excellent experience with amazing home made food.. Had a great time with Mr Thomas ,the owner and manager of Barrister Homestay.He made sure we all are well taken care of right from the time we arrived and throughout our stay. Thank you so much.. Thank you so much.
