10 Gorgeous Boutique Homes In India To Discover This Long Weekend

10 Gorgeous Boutique Homes In India To Discover This Long Weekend

Hands down, the best start to 2018 was knowing that the year has a whopping total of 15 long weekends. For an avid traveller like me, these long weekends are golden tickets to visiting places I haven’t explored before. And with the Good Friday holiday bringing the travel flutter back to my stomach, I can barely contain my excitement of leaving the city behind. This time, though, my plan is to find a quaint small town and relax in a cosy cottage nestled in the woods for Easter.

If your soul is craving clean air, scenic views and scented forests, too, then look no further than this list of fantastic homes you can escape to this upcoming (and much deserved) long weekend while sending Easter wishes to your friends.
