It's the best time of the year to experience staying atop a small hill in the stone house with green surroundings blessed with fruits, veges, purest water from the well, sounds of birds, insects, walkways & cycling paths, living close to nature & not too far from the city known for the number of good restaurants, shops, theatres, churches, temples, Ayurveda centres, Naturopathy proximity to the backwaters & boating plus some of the hill stations that can be covered in a day's trip & back. Situated on a hill-top in Kottayam, our Fairytale home makes for a comfortable stay option during a trip to Kerala. It is close to a number of tourist attractions and away from the crowd, noise and pollution, allowing our guests to enjoy a quiet and relaxed holiday. This listing fits in the perfect 2. You can let your imaginations go wild into a fairy tale. Enjoy and experience the time of your life. Our place is suitable whether you are on a Holiday, Honeymoon, Business trip, Medical/ Dental/ Ayurveda treatment, Pre/ Post wedding stays, long term or short term, Pre/ Post wedding shoots or even for Film/ Ad shoots. Whatever be your reason for the break, our home built in stone atop a small hill is a great place to be in. It comfortably fits 8, centrally located with proximity to backwaters and plantation sector of the high ranges. It is close to a number of tourist attractions yet seemingly distant from all the hustle and bustle of the city, allowing our guests to spend a quiet and relaxed vacation. Our stone mansion has three spacious, well-kept rooms including a family room available for our guests. Two of the three bedrooms are air-conditioned. *There is an extra room with two single beds. * A small kitchen with some essentials. * A Washing Machine. * An Iron. The Asterisk marked, above mentioned 4 additional facilities are available to you only on request during your stay at an extra minimal per night depending on your requirement/s. Since these requirements vary from one to another, we haven't included the charges herein but you may pay the extra on arrival only if you need to avail those. .The uniqueness of our listing is the fact that you experience an 'out of the world charm' that comes naturally to you soon as you enter The Shelter. Birds and butterflies and a driveway filled with tiny colorful flowers. It is nature all around. You will also get to buy some pure and natural stuff from our little shop, Fairytale Treasures that stands in the same premise, holding the best of our daily requisites like pure and natural spices straight from the estates, raw honey from The Shelter, Homemade products such as Jams, Squashes, Pickles & Wines as per the season and availability at the time, cute cook 'n' serves in earthenware & other utilities at very affordable prices. Our guests have a separate entry to each of the rooms that they have booked. All the rooms are on another level of the stone house as per the natural landscape of the land.

Jacob would be the happiest to tour you around these, explaining in detail or as you need to know. We are very much there for you at the property.
