A farm getaway close to home.
Head north to Gholvad for a stay among chikoo trees, a guided farm walk and a home-cooked meal.
Save Farm is a 25-acre working chikoo and mango orchard in Gholvad, Dahanu, about 2 hours by road or 1.5 hours by train from Virar and Vasai. Come for a night or two in a farm room, or bring a group of 25 or more from your school, college, housing society or office for a day.
Take a Western Railway train to Gholvad, about 1.5 hours from Virar. The farm is a 5-minute rickshaw ride from the station, and rickshaws are usually available there.
Take NH-48 north past Manor and turn towards Dahanu at Charoti (Kasa Naka). There is parking inside the farm, including for buses of up to 30–35 seats.
Chikoo and mango are the main crops, with coconut, litchi and seasonal vegetables, a farm lake and a collection of over 400 plant species.
A couple room takes up to three people: two adults with a child up to 8, who stays free, or with one extra person. Family rooms sleep four.
Two rural activities are included in a stay. Mat weaving, basket weaving and bamboo craft can be added for longer stays or on request.
Schools, colleges, housing societies and offices can plan a group day visit for 25 or more. A Warli dance or tarpa music performance can be arranged on request, when the performers are available.
From Virar or Vasai, the train is often the easiest way to Gholvad: about an hour and a half on the Western Railway, then a 5-minute rickshaw ride to the farm. Driving takes about 2 hours via NH-48. Check the day’s timetable or road conditions before you set out.
Once here, you walk through a working orchard that the Save family has farmed since 1970. You can see the vermi-compost unit, the bees kept for pollination, fish raised in the canals between chikoo rows and the farm’s rainwater harvesting. Crops are grown without chemical pesticides, using organic fertilisers.
Meals are home-cooked Maharashtrian vegetarian food, included in your stay, with non-vegetarian food available at extra cost. Alcohol and loud music are not allowed on the farm, so evenings stay quiet.
Group day visits start at 25 guests. Overnight rooms suit smaller parties; ask us which option fits the people coming with you.
