Slow down. The river already has.

A riverside cottage, a private pool and an acre of green, forty minutes from Athirappilly falls.

Where the river sets the pace

Listen

Birdsong before the alarm. Rain moving across the trees. The quiet of the Chalakudy river at the bottom of the garden.

Murai is a two-bedroom cottage in an acre of lawns and trees by the river. There’s nothing to rush for: a pool to swim in, a deck to watch the evening from, and days that stretch as long as you want.
