The cottages at Spice Village are inspired from the local dwellings and created from the locally available designs and materials. Elephant grass abundantly available at the Periyar Tiger Reserve is used as the roofing for these wooden cottages and it’s an interesting experience to observe the local craftsmen when they re-thatch the cottages. The Private Garden Villas have a cozy little living area and a private garden in front of the cottage.

The Spice Garden Cottages come with a small little living area and a spacious bedroom with an attached bathroom. The Elephant Grass which has been used to thatch the roof keeps the temperature within the cottage, very comfortable all year round

The bar is named after Mr. A.W. Woods, our forest ranger, whose house it used to be.
