Calme et sérénité à Kottayam
Pros:

Cadre exceptionnel le long d’une rivière pour un séjour reposant après des semaines de voyages. La maison vieille de 3 siècles a été rénovée mais a été conservée dans son esprit. Cuisine vieillotte.
Chambre/ lit à baldaquin et sdb très confortables et propres . Frigo et bouilloire à disposition .

La gentillesse de toute la famille est à souligner. Les repas veggie de Saraswathy sont excellents.
Tout cela au son des oiseaux.

Proximité de la ville si besoin.
Gare 🚉 à 20’ de Tuktuk

Paradise does exist and....it is here
Pros:

I could write pages to describe this woderful MANA but.....it really goes beyond saying.
The general strike in India forced us to stay one extra day in this beautiful environment with its great hospitality and excellent meals.Our recommendation: never come here for just one day.You need more.Many thanks to the unions!
We went now to the famous Kumaranalloor Temple with its great energy as well.To never forget!
Many thanks for al the great memories!!

A beautiful riverside homestay!
Pros:

A beautiful property in a quiet location by the river! The property is 100’s of years old but very well maintained and comfortable. It’s a separate house to the owners so you have plenty of your own space. The owners are both extremely kind, they offered us tea and dinner and organised a car for us the next morning to the ferry terminal. Would really recommend staying here :)
