We really enjoyed our stay at Kuttickattil Gardens Homestay. Ajith and his family were fabulous hosts and the food was delicious! It was especially nice to have access to a small kitchen and fridge, as well as a washing machine. They also provided drinking water for refilling our water bottles.

The Mana-Heritage stay - Chengazhimattam Mana, hotel in Kottayam

The Mana-Heritage stay - Chengazhimattam Mana offers accommodations in Kottayam, 1.2 miles from Kottayam Train Station and 5.7 miles from Ettumanoor Mahadeva Temple.

Most beautifully located on the banks of the river, the simple 2 bedroom, quaint cottage transported me back to the past. The sound of the river flowing by, the chirping of the birds and the crickets was very refreshing. The hostess was very accommodating, the breakfast simple but tasty. There was a pleasant walk by the riverside. It was fairly close to the main road. They were able to arrange good transport at short notice.

    Seriously an excellent homestay experience. You're in gorgeous jungle farmland, with amazingly friendly and helpful hosts, and the rooms are very comfortable. I can't recommend enough. There is a pool, a river right outside with boats and kayaks in the right season. Birds and other friendly critters about. Remote enough but also food delivery is available and they cook amazing free breakfast everyday. Excellent dinners are provided daily if desired for a very reasonable price. You should stay here!

    Very beautiful and quiet scenery, because the homestay is in the middle of the nature. Ajith and his family are the sweetest and most generous people and helped us with all our questions. One morning we did canoeing which was very nice in the surroundings of the homestay. The evening dinners and breakfast were cooked by Ajiths mother which were very tasty. Because we liked the atmosphere at the place so much we booked an additional night.
