Earthen home in Vagamon

Mountain Villa - Stone Cottage

A restored stone cottage at 3,300 ft in Vagamon, Kerala. Off-grid eco retreat on five acres of forest — solar and wind powered, farm-to-table meals by Chef Anoop, no television, and real quiet. The cottage was once a labour shed on a working estate. Original stone walls, comfortable interiors, a verandah overlooking the valley. Not a resort. No pool, no spa. What there is: hornbill song at dawn, bonfires under the Milky Way, and the feeling of being completely off the map.
