Munnar

LoginSave

Set in thick forest 20km southwest of Munnar, this remote-feeling place lies on 150 hectares of spice plantation and farmland (not tea plantations). There are two restaurants, a private cottage and eight bright, simple rooms with kettles (four of which have verandahs), as well as separate farm-view rooms. The peace here is Zen but some find it isolated; call for pick-ups.
