Red Ochre Kolkata 2 bedroom entire ground floor.

Red Ochre was built by my parents, in which they, my sister & I lived many happy years. It's been a home where family, friends & neighbours dropped in at all hours, knowing they'd find a ready welcome. However, time passes, people pass and things change. And I wanted my home to move into another phase. I hope my guests will love my home as much as I do, even without the nostalgia that I associate with it. I welcome everybody from all communities, gender, or sexual orientation. The space In Red Ochre, you will get the entire ground floor of a 2 storied house to yourself. There is no live in caretaker.

If you wish to visit heritage historical sites of Calcutta, I can provide you with tips for walking tours, river cruises and day long travel. There are some reliable tourist guides, who will curate a tour catering to your specific requirements. While Calcutta is known for its affordable street food, it is also a place where you have affordable fine dining. The restaurants in Park Street are well known of course, but in recent years, many small cafes and restaurants have popped up in South Calcutta. Jodhpur Park is no exception.
