Hi friends!
I have setup my farm ‘MAHUA FARMS’ to those of us who would like to have a break in nature.
Our ideal guests are nature lovers, bird-watchers and simply people who are looking for a ‘time-out’ from the stress of everyday life. Add to the list those who treasure and appreciate the understated luxury of a quiet, peaceful place. With our own four acres of chemical-free surroundings, greenery and quiet, Mahua is an absolute pleasure for the senses.
This is how you get there from Mumbai.
