The place is very nice and cozy. It is very close to the Aerocity Mohali and super easy to reach. I would recommend this place to the fellow travellers who would like to unwind themselves from the busy City life. The place is safe with guards available 24/7. Icing on the cake is that you will get to see Ducks, Parrots and Dogs. The staff is super friendly and special shout out to Karn and his cook Mr. Dev who serves you delicious Home Cooked meal. Thank you Karn for the wonderful Hospitality.

I highly recommend this place for families who want to take a break from the busy city life. A must go place for pet lovers. Lush green farms and beautifully designed and furnished farmhouse make good value for money. Better than a star hotel if you like serene environment for your stay.

This place is one where you feel welcomed from the moment you enter till the end of your stay ( which you wish doesn’t end ). I fell in love with this tastefully done property. The serenity , proximity to nature and calmness just soothes every cell of the body. The hosts take care of every need in your stay and have beautifully maintained the property. The staff is so courteous and accommodative. Everything here just happens in sync making one feel close to one’s own self. I feel thoroughly rejuvenated and look forward to many more stays here.

Karn's farm is one of those really unique airbnb experiences. We were actually sharing his home with all the animals and dogs. There are no horses though. It was all quite surreal for us city dwellers. Karn is a very interesting host, we had a good time conversing about everything under the sun. We recommend this place for an authentic experience!

Very accurately described by Karn...the place is indeed charming and so is the host. My husband and I were planning to stay for just a night but the love affair with this place was strong enough to keep us here for the much longer. As for Karn, you will jot find a more welcoming and helpful guy. An animal lover in the true sense, you will find dogs, geese goats, buffaloes...everything. This is going to be our permanent weekend getaway.

Karn's place is amazing. Its big and beautiful. He has 5 dogs, a few ducks, 2 goats and a cow and a buffalo. Its a heaven for animal lovers. The place inspite of being next to the highway was very quiet and peaceful. Karn is a great host, helped us with everything we needed. Will definitely visit again in the future.

Fantastic place, especially if you are an animal lover. It’s a serene and peaceful farm with frequent bird calls, great foliage and adorable animals. Karn is a good conversationalist and a really helpful guy. We had a great time at Westonel.

Great place to chill and relax. Tastefully designed, well lit and the furniture is as good as it can get. There is a small lake inside with a makeshift mini-bridge. Also, there are some very friendly and fun to play with dogs. The host Mr. Karn is very helpful and went out of his way to accommodate us. If you get a chance, do spark a conversation with him as he has many interesting things to tell.

Westonel Farm stay is a fantastic place to stay.. especially for animal lovers and people travelling with pets. Karn and his wife are very interesting and beautiful people and they made our stay extra special for us. Most importantly, we were travelling with three dogs and Karn and his entire unit was so supportive and kind to our pets who had a rolicking time running about in the superbly well maintained outdoors and walking in the surrounding fields. We recommend this place to anyone who is looking to enjoy some time in a place of peace and love especially for pet parents.

For lovers of nature and animals; a true blue farm stay a stone throw away from Tri City. One minute you at the airport and the next at a calm beautiful oasis! Exceptionally personal and warm hospitality, highly recommended!

High Quality in Human Experience at the other side of the worldThe location is absolutely awesome and peaceful (no noise!) with a lovely garden and animals, no pressure to check out with no pollution in the air, which is a rarity, especially after traveling through the north of India and sleeping in all sorts of places. The owners are artists who renovated & decorated their house, which means you enter an interesting & artistic environment; these are the gems of this world. The lunch was delicious; they manage to adapt to European desires (no spices, chocolate, etc.). The owners are really wonderful, passionate people who live by heart. which is a rare thing, globally...
