Munnar, the abode of environmental purity is situated
at the confluence of three mountain streams - Mudrapuzha, Nallathani and
Kundala in the Western Ghats. Sitting high on the observatory hill at
1600m above sea level, this charming retreat is set amidst a cardamom
estate surrounded by tea clad hills and dramatic rainforest where you
can unwind and fill your lungs with pure mountain air. |
| Cottages: Six exquisite rooms owing their names to
the vegetation around (Cardamom, Coffee and Vanilla ). The cottages are
large having an area of 600 square feet each. Even the king sized beds,
the huge bathroom and heavy furniture leave enough space to swing a few
hats. The huge window frames do justice to the picture perfect mountains
beyond. |
