Farmstay:
In True Essence.
The stay at Prakriti Nilayam offers a true-blue experience of waking up to the sound of bird calls and the smell of farms.
Experiences
The charm of Prakriti Nilayam lies not just in its comfort but in the lifestyle it offers. The pristine air, open skies, and peaceful walks by the village lake will leave a strong memory. Engage in the rhythms of farm life—watch seeds grow into meals, enjoy moonlit dinners, and play badminton or volleyball with local youth. For those drawn to spirituality and culture, the nearby temples and customisable tours to nearby sacred cities provide depth and discovery.
And yes, there's Wi-Fi—but you might just forget to use it.
Cosy Rooms
We have 3 rooms with a maximum capacity of accommodating 9 people. This is a perfect getaway for a family or a group of friends, or couples who truly appreciate sustainable home-style living.
All rooms have air-conditioning and are primarily run on solar power. These rooms offer an ideal blend of privacy and comfort while not closing down opportunities to interact with fellow residents.
In addition to the rooms, we have plenty of common areas for relaxing with family and friends and a spacious balcony to overlook lush wheat fields on the ground and a star-filled sky above.
In-House Dining
भोजन मे भात होए, घी से मुलाकात होए,
दहीं बुरों साथ होए, दार अरहर की।
और कछु साग होए, चटनी की लाग होए,
फूली फूली रोटियाँ, परोसी जाएँ घर की।
- कवि गोपालप्रसाद व्यास
True to the essence of this poem, we serve healthy Indian food fresh from our in-house kitchen.
The food cooked by our in-house chef is vegetarian, with options for Satvic and Jain-friendly dishes. For those looking for Non-vegetarian options, we can arrange it from outside.
Farm Experience
Understanding how farming works in theory and experiencing it in practice are both out of reach for the majority of our urban populace. However, at Prakriti Nilayam, Farmstay is true to its essence. Meet those who grow your food and understand what it takes.
See for yourself how sustainable rural farming works and, better still, participate in it. From feeding and milking the cows to harvesting papayas, from tilling the land to thrashing the grain; see it, do it, feel it, experience it. True farmstay!
Cultural Exploration
The land of Uttar Pradesh is filled with places of cultural, religious and spiritual significance, and Pratapgarh is no exception. While staying at Prakriti Nilayam, visit places of great cultural significance, including the two Shakti Peeths, viz. Belha Devi and Barahi Devi Dham. A unique temple dedicated to Kisan Devta (Farmer God) is also nearby and affords an opportunity to connect with and appreciate the “Annadatas”.
Spiritual Travel
Located strategically between three of the most significant spiritual and devotional places in India, means that you can visit all of them without having to stay in the chaotic atmosphere of those popular places. Experience serene mornings at Prakriti Nilayam and take a day trip to either Kashi, Ayodhya or Prayagraj.
We have the option of curating hassle-free day trips to all these spiritual locations, including travel and stay if needed.
Youth Engagement
There is a youth development and training centre that is run in a part of Prakriti Nilayam’s premises. Youth from nearby villages come to learn computer science and other skills that can help them in career development.
This presents an opportunity for residents to interact with the youth and also share their life lessons to inspire them. Such exchanges are beneficial for both sides, especially for urban children who can understand the kind of life trajectory that rural youth may have.
