Life onthe river

Every picture here was taken at the property — the rooms, the water and the grounds as they are.

  • The same River Breeze room from the other side, showing the television, the electric kettle on the console and the full-length mirror on the wardrobe.
  • A River Breeze room: a wide bed against a wooden headboard, a red sofa and low table by the window, a split air conditioner and a recessed cove light, with a glass door onto the balcony.
  • Two paddlers in orange life jackets in an orange and yellow two-seater sit-on-top kayak on the flat blue-green water of the Kumbla estuary, one paddle raised mid-stroke, with a low sandy shoreline and bare driftwood behind them.
  • The swimming pool, with a wide tiled deck around it, coconut palms overhead and the room block along one side.
  • A wedding mandap on the grounds: a white and silver filigree pavilion under coconut palms, banked with red roses, a cream sofa on the stage and a white carpet running up the steps to it.

    stay

  • A River Breeze balcony under a slatted canopy: artificial grass, two white lattice chairs and a low wooden table, looking down over the pool and the grounds to the river.

    stay

  • A Coconut Groove cottage room: a double bed with a slatted wooden headboard, a tall fluted wardrobe with a mirror, two chairs and a marble floor.

    stay

  • The fan-cooled Coconut Groove cottage: a double bed with a curved wooden headboard, a ceiling fan, a wardrobe with a mirror, and a glass door through to the bathroom.

    stay

  • The swimming pool, with a wide tiled deck around it, coconut palms overhead and the room block along one side.

    grounds

  • A paved walk through the grounds under a canopy of trees, with grass set in a chequered pattern between the tiles, gravel on either side, a bench and a bird feeder on the right, and the river showing beyond a low wall.

    grounds

  • The whole property seen from the middle of the estuary: a long coursed laterite bank wall, mangroves and coconut palms above it, and the buildings set back among the trees under an open blue sky.

    grounds

  • The property seen from the estuary: a coursed laterite block wall holding the bank, and a tiled roof among the coconut palms behind it.

    grounds

  • Kayaks on the backwater at Arikady in morning sun: a paddler in a blue shirt and orange life jacket in a lime kayak, a second kayak further along the bank, a third bow entering the frame, and sunlit trees reflected in the still green water.

    grounds

  • Looking forward from a kayak on the backwater at Arikady: the yellow bow and the paddler's feet in the foreground, still water opening ahead between wooded banks, with the trees mirrored on the surface under a clear morning sky.

    grounds

  • Two paddlers in orange life jackets in an orange and yellow two-seater sit-on-top kayak on the flat blue-green water of the Kumbla estuary, one paddle raised mid-stroke, with a low sandy shoreline and bare driftwood behind them.

    grounds

  • The Kumbla estuary from the water: green tidal water, a low line of mangroves and coconut palms along the far bank.

    grounds

  • A wedding mandap on the grounds: a white and silver filigree pavilion under coconut palms, banked with red roses, a cream sofa on the stage and a white carpet running up the steps to it.

    weddings

  • The lawn set for a wedding reception: white peaked canopies with tables and covered chairs beneath them, a flower arch of pink and white roses over a printed aisle runner on the grass, and string lights hung through the coconut palms.

    weddings

  • The entrance walk dressed for a wedding at night: a lit steel arch hung with pink and white flowers and two chandeliers, string lights strung through the palms, printed welcome boards along one side, and the brick paver walk lit warm underfoot.

    Guests seated at tables during a function — shows scale in a way empty ground never will.

  • Photograph pending

    The permanently covered areas, empty and lit, so a buyer can see what stays dry in the rain.

  • Photograph pending

    The stage with sound rigged, so a buyer can see what is actually provided.

  • Photograph pending

    The parking with cars in it. Empty ground proves nothing to a father of the bride.

  • Photograph pending

    The full seven acres from the air, or from the far corner — the one shot that shows the size.

  • Photograph pending

    The fan-cooled Coconut Groove cottage, and a cottage exterior seen from the grove.

The whole property seen from the middle of the estuary: a long coursed laterite bank wall, mangroves and coconut palms above it, and the buildings set back among the trees under an open blue sky.

A return to calm

Slow days.
Quiet water.

Seven acres on the Kumbla estuary, with the river on one side and the coconut grove on the other.
