Windermere Estate

Located on Observatory Hill, at an altitude of 1,600m a short distance from the hill-town of Munnar, Windermere is a peaceful place to relax and enjoy the cooler climate and more relaxed atmosphere of the Western Ghats. Surrounded by a 60 acre cardamom plantation, Windermere Estate is a family-run business with a very friendly and laid back atmosphere. Accommodation is in rustic cottages, most of which enjoy fabulous views of the steep sided tea estates and the cardamom hill. The hotel can arrange tours of the cardamom plantations which are rich with flora and fauna and can organise longer treks in the hills of the Western Ghats.

Highlights

  • Incredible views over the Western Ghats.
  • Friendly, laid back atmosphere.
