Situated on the hills of kodaikanal, around 8 kms from the city centre/Lake, our place provides guests with breathtaking views of the valley, tranquility and the perfect hill station experience of living in a cozy wooden cottage. The cottage has a very rustic feel surrounded by mountains and mist during most times making it the ultimate destination for a getaway from the hustle and bustle of daily mundane life. Guests have full access to the entire cottage along with the outdoor spaces. There is a living room on the upper level for you to lounge in. Amenities include cable/Smart TV, a small ping pong table, a dartboard, carrom board, chess, playing cards etc to keep yourselves entertained during your stay. The dining room is at the ground level and is provided with a dry kitchenette. It comprises of an induction stove, microwave, coffee maker, bread toaster, RO water along with the minimal utensils, eating plates and cutlery like spoons and forks. We have also provided a refrigerator to store your dairy products or beverages. Please note that this kitchen is not meant for heavy duty cooking. There is a wet kitchen provided outside the cottage in case you wish to hire our cook to prepare all or a portion of your meals during your stay. This service will be at an additional cost and is not meant for guest usage. There are 3 cozy bedrooms with attached bathrooms, one in the ground level and 2 in the upper level. They are slightly tight on space but very well appointed. Apart from this, we also have provided a room and bathroom for the driver/helper in case they travel with you. The outdoor space comprise a garden where you can relax and enjoy nature at its finest while sipping on some hot tea or coffee. Pets are welcome but certain strict rules are applicable to maintain the cleanliness of the property. Please check out point no 3 in the house rules section for further clarity. You could also rent our BBQ grill equipment with charcoal at INR 600 per cook. Our cooks will help with the marination of veggies and meats and heating up of the charcoal. We also have portable heaters for the rooms which can be rented out at a nominal cost of 350 bucks per heater per day in case you need it on a mandatory basis. However, it is recommended to run these machines for time periods of 2 hrs with a break of 1 hr since these things tend to heat up fast and can cause a possible fire in our wooden cottage. Also, in case of power outage, plugging these machines to the inverter points (not recommended) will result in a total blackout as these things take way too much power. In this case, the rules for the overrunning of the DG will apply. Kindly check the note below for details. Note: The entire property has an inverter power back up for lights, fans and some plug points. Apart from this we have recently installed a diesel generator to take care of longer power outages which is common in the hills. Kindly note that we will only run this to ensure the inverter is not out of juice and also ensure your hot water is not affected especially at the time of checking out. In case you wish to run this for longer it will be on a chargeable basis. This price is variable due to the fluctuating fuel prices in our country. Guests have access to the entire cottage I am based out of Chennai and have a caretaker to take care of the guests. But I love socialising and would be glad to help out or interact with guests booking this place. The cottage is located in a gated community and is very secure and is about 7-8 mins from the 5 star GRT great trails resort and 12 mins from Sterling resorts. The kodai lake/ city centre is about 20 mins by car. Kindly follow the road from Sterling resort (valley) to GRT great trails. Our property is just another 5-7 mins drive from GRT in Jacaranda layout, Attuvampatti. In case you are not travelling in your own vehicle, we can organise airport/train station pick up and drop at an additional cost. The nearest airport is Madurai and nearest train station is Kodai Road. Apart from having a peaceful time in our cottage, we can also organise tours and treks in and around kodai and bring out the adventurous side in you. We would definitely encourage our guests to explore the various options provided by our team for a very fulfilling experience.
