House is a Neemrana group
enterprise located at 5 mins walkable distance from the famous
"Bungalows on the Beach" 15 km north of Karikal
(Union Territory of Pondicherry)
at Tranquebar (Tamilnadu,
India).
Tranquebar
is a small sea side village on the outskirts of Karikal (Part of union
territory of Pondicherry), known for
its Shani temple.
Tharangambadi,
'dancing waves' in Tamil, was once a small village on the Coromandel coast
in south-east India. In 1620, a Danish admiral, ambassador of the King
of Denmark, arrived here to study pepper trade options. The Dances
christened the village 'Tranquebar' and erected a distinctive Danish Fort, 'Dansborg'.
In the 1690s many Danes bought houses in the area and gradually a small
Danish township took shape, with a Tamil colony beyond.
The
Nayak House is a honeymooners idyllic cottage with a private
sea attached. Guests can live in any of these but are free to
dine at the Bungalow on the Beach or at the Tamil Nadu Hotel
that offer traditional Tamil cuisine.
Nayak
House is an example of indigenous Tamil architecture with its
red tiled roofs and courtyards surrounding, offering 3 guest
rooms designed with traditional feel.
