A long private driveway leads you to this 2 BHK ground-floor, #1200 sq. ft. apartment set amidst coconut groves and lush paddy fields of a large privately-owned farm, Tranquille, around 12 km from Pondicherry town. It is surrounded on three sides by the 7 sq. km (#2000 acre) Ossudu Lake, a protected bird sanctuary, and is formed as a private peninsula. The apartment has a long verandah in front with a stunning view of the lake, which keeps the farm naturally cool throughout the year.

The apartment has a bedroom with A/C (the bed can sleep 2 people) with an attached bathroom with hot water facility, a smaller bedroom with a single bed and an attached toilet, a well-equipped kitchenette and a sitting area. It is elegantly fitted out in traditional antique furniture. We can provide an additional floor mattress for an extra person.
