The Pamba Heritage
Villa -a most perfect blend of the old world charm and modern amenities.
Each day that you spend in this 100 year old
wooden mansion situated on the bank of the holy river Pamba, you will
feel the serenity, peace and joy, which has been long lost to the
frenetic pace of the times that we live in. This is a golden opportunity
to experience closeness with Nature.
The Pamba Heritage villa is a 109 year old
wooden mansion which has been handed over to the succeeding generations
by the great ancestors of the famous Kanjooparambil family. This
Heritage Villa is situated on the banks of the holy river Pamba. Hence
the name The Pamba Heritage Villa. The Pamba River is the third longest
river in the South Indian state of Kerala and the longest river in the
erstwhile princely state of Travancore. The Pamba Heritage Villa is the
ancestral home of the famous Kanjooparambil family. The portion of the
house where the guests stay was originally the Ara and the Nilavara
which were used to store paddy and other grains in olden days. It has
now been converted into beautiful, spacious and ventilated bedrooms with
attached bathrooms, having all modern amenities.
