AT PEACE IN WAYANAD


Wayanad in Kerala is possibly the best spot in the South if you want to get back in touch with Nature. Even a weekend stay in the verdant coffee estates, nestled amidst the hills, is adequate time to bring back a sense of sanity to a wornout city dweller.
The Tranquil Resort near Kalpetta would be my recommendation for the offbeat traveller.
The hospitality of the hosts Victor and Jini Dey add that personal touch that truly makes this a home away from home.


The journey to Wayanad is just as good since you pass through the Mudumalai forests and through rich fields .This one caught my attention in particular...a veritable carpet of gold.

Wayanad and its raw beauty ... a curtain of mist just uncovering a breathtaking mountain scene on our way to Edakkal .The caves at Edakkal were prehistoric dwellings and have interesting carvings depicting life in those times .



The poolside at Tranquil and the tree house beside it. The tree house was my favourite place ; reading a book, sipping coffee and doing some thinking or writing . Everthing you do here should ideally be with yourself..In Quiet.



Our cottage at Tranquil was as quaint and peaceful as the surroundings. The eye for detail is evident .Everthing has a role and place out here ..nothing less nothing more ...Just Right !
Kudos to the host and hostess !
