Smile seems to be the focus of everything we do at Kurialacherry House! It is a traditional Family house situated in an Island name as Manapra on the Keralan Backwaters. Venerable Thomas Kurialacherry (January 14, 1873 – February 6, 1925) was a member of the Syro-Malabar Catholic Church, and was the first bishop, of what would become the Archdiocese of Changanassery. Now a couple of rooms converted from a superb antique granary, complete with original wood architecture and fixtures intact, retaining their original grandeur with river facing verandas., Kurialacherry Homestay stands calm and serene on the bank of the river Pampa, laced with coconut trees on either side. With its exotic river front location, green paddy fields at the backyard, rooms featuring traditional Kerala architecture and modern facilities. With the delightful mood of a family atmosphere and delicious homemade food, Kurialacherry Homestay is an ideal retreat into the soothing lap of nature and a prefect getaway from the din and bustle of everyday life.
