Reviews
We got so connected with Beryl that we all had tears in our eyes while leaving the place.I think the home itself is very amazing but the presence of Beryl being at the place adds an unfathomable charm to it.
P.S.- During our stay we taught Beryl how to make Lassi(an Indian Beverage) so if you are an Indian (or someone who loves Indian food), make sure to try her Mango/Strawberry Lassi😅😂.
