In 1935,
Raibahadur Kanaklal Barua, a prominent citizen of Assam
who served as a member of the Viceroy's Executive
Council, built a lodge in the popular neo-colonial style
of the times. The architect was his son, Tapan Lal Barua,
but it was after his daughter - Rosa - that the
WelcomHeritage Rosaville lodge was named.
The lodge
remains within the family and retains all the flavour of
a family home but Rosa now lives in Mumbai and the doors
of the lodge were opened to visitors. |

Accommodation
WelcomHeritage Rosaville
Lodge was a home, but a prestigious home of an
illustrious man. The nostalgia of a grander past,
when a cup of evening tea retained all the flavour
of a ceremony rather than an ordinary ritual
lingers still in the décor, be it the furniture
from the colonial times or the family memorabilia
in the hallways.
