Built a decade ago by restoring on a centaury old home at mundackal estate over a hundred acres of multi crop plantation. The architecture is a version
of kerala style of homes seen across the state modernized by good usage of wall space by using large bay windows, inward cut verandahs and large glass coverage letting in fresh air and light indoors.
We drive from east to enter into the green and placid surroundings where a warm welcome awaits from Jose George and Daisy Jose who make us special at this plantation home stay nestling in the midland of westernghats adjoining the foothills of munnar. The medium pitched tile roofs are gabled at all faces, which artfully blend the traditional kerala architecture. The well spread layout of the bungalow and fine granite masonry is complimented with simple wooden pillars along the eastern side of the porch and southern side of the verandah, the wood paneled ceilings of the porch and the verandahs add grandeur to the home. The gracious verandahs facing the south and the cool corners tucked in them are ideal for you to relax at any time of the day with nothing but freshness all around you.
