Company info

Hi, I'm Dr. Nishad, a Consultant in Internal Medicine and Diabetology with a passion for nature, farming, and sustainable living. Outside my medical practice, I manage an organic farm where we grow rice using natural methods—without any chemicals or pesticides. Hosting at Nellu is my way of sharing this slow, mindful lifestyle with guests who want a break from the noise and a taste of real village life. I enjoy spending time outdoors, working with the soil, watching birds, and creating spaces that promote wellness and calm. I believe in food as medicine, holistic health, and preserving local biodiversity—and Nellu reflects all of that in its eco-friendly design, traditional materials, and peaceful setting. At Nellu, you’re more than just a guest. You’re welcome like family. Whether it’s sipping fresh black coffee on the deck, walking through the paddy fields, or talking about wellness and healing—I'm here to make your stay relaxed, personal, and memorable.
