Testimonials from Visitors of Previous Years

When our bus ( courtesy Mukti ) reached our hotel at Raidighi smiling faces greeted us, we were guided to our rooms and and we were pleasantly surprised to find that the staying arrangements planned were far far beyond our expectations. Getting refreshed within an hour or so we were now feeling a bit hungry . We were shipped in groups to a nearby farm house where incidentally one old age home was also located . It was here where arrangement had been made for our food for our total stay and the experience what we gained here will be remembered for years. Delicious Bengali gourmet served by young ladies who sincerely want you to eat and you can expect the amount we ate.. it was the same story on all days.
