The house is located at Baganpara, off the Bolpur-Suri main road and is easily accessible via local transport. The Viswabharati campus is also pretty close and easily accessible via local transport (which can be arranged on prior request). We have an open kitchen where you can cook as per your own sweet will as you do at home and we won't charge you anything for that :) We do not serve full meals at this point as in Shantiniketan,it's best to roam around and have lunch or dinners at the lovely restaurants around. However, we have an ever-smiling couple who would wake you up with a hot cup of tea for a perfect start to the day and follow it up with a nice little breakfast. There are 3 types of rooms available for your stay that can accommodate a maximum of 6-7 guests. The rooms are spacious so that you don't feel cramped. One of them has an attached bath and the others have access to the common baths. The most attractive part of the stay might well be the balcony and the vast open roof which are so perfect for those long conversations that you probably might lose track of the time; that's what has happened to us over the the years :)
We love music, we love Tagore (silly, but that was THE reason we thought of building this house at Shantiniketan, a good 30 years back), and we would love to have people who share this passion. However, as a gesture of peaceful co-existence to the neighbours, we politely request guests not to indulge in playing loud music which might seem out of place and not of good taste with the surroundings and we're sure they understand. If this sounds like home to you, we're sure it'll feel like home too, once you are here.
The neighbourhood is a very peaceful area with no noise at all. It is within half a km from the Bolpur Suri main road. There's a Toto stand in front of the house so you can expect to get a conveyance pretty easily. A small shop by the stand sells vegetables and basic stuffs just in case you love to cook your own food in our kitchen. And then there's the entire Baganpara ground, unobstructed view from the roof, that makes it so windy that the evenings are always so pleasant, even in the hottest of summers.
