Mayuram
Eco Lodge is situated on a 350 acre farm right at the foot of the
Western Ghats, which form a magnificent backdrop to the property. The
land adjoins the Kalakkad - Mundanthurai Tiger Reserve; our conservation
and restoration programmes have greatly improved the quality of the
habitat, attracting a great variety of fauna, especially from the
reserve adjacent. The Eco-Lodge is a building with strongly local
architectural character; a bit rustic, but airy and spacious.
The jheels (ponds)
surrounding the estate, the savannah parkland of the farm and the
forests around it has ensured a breathtaking variety of avifauna. Indeed
this place makes a perfect getaway for birding or a trekking holiday
The best time to visit us
is between October and March when the rains have cooled the plains, the
nights pleasant and the days comfortable once again. So come for that
exclusive retreat to Countryside Unlimited at Mayuram
Accommodation
The architecture of the foothills
adjoining Shenkottah is a curious mixture of the vernacular styles of
both Kerala and Tamil Nadu, strongly overlaid with the influences of
British colonial architecture. The buildings have the steeply pitched
tile-roofs of Kerala, carried on the thick white-washed masonry walls of
Tamil Nadu, the whole embellished with mouldings, cornices and column
capitals of colonial origin. The lodge at Govindapperi reflects the
prevailing regional architectural style in its form and detail. The
buildings of the region are essentially inward looking in nature,
clustered close together as they usually are. Our farm-house, however,
opens out into its setting, creating a harmonious continuation of the
outdoors into the indoors. Open transition spaces and courtyards create
a seamless fusion of shelter and nature, creating a perfect unity with
the tranquil setting.
