Flycatcher

Yesterday, it was a woodpecker. Today it is a flycatcher. What will we see next in the neem tree behind the kitchen?

This time Pandi grabbed the camera.

Nature and serenity surrounding area.Every thing you need to treat yourself is here. Nice people around you. What can I say about the food? If any food can make you happy after your mother's food, it this food. Absolutely original home cooking, with no adulterated stuff. Made to your requirement, as per your suggestions. Plenty of seasonal fruits and vegetables. I did not taste any non-vegetarian preparation. But, I am sure they can make fabulous non-vegetarian dishes too.

Good for children and adults. I loved the pool.Dr. Chris, the founder of this place also stays here. He makes sure that every moment of your time is pleasantly spent.

We had a wonderful time @ Cardamom House during our stay on 12th and 13th Feb 2022.The homestay is built amidst a... highland surrounded by lush paddy fields with breath-taking views. The aesthetically pleasing design of the house and the diverse collection of flora were complimenting each other. The foyer leading into a large dining-cum-entertainment room had a spectacular view overlooking the Kamaraj water reserve at the far end. The rooms were large, comfortable and adequately furnished with all the basic needs for a pleasant stay. The fabrics in the room and the surroundings were super clean that we hardly faced any bed bugs or mosquito bites. The swimming pool was crystal clear and very well maintained. The food (Veg & Non-Veg) was great and the staff were well-mannered, polite and courteous. We would like to extend our warm greetings and thanks to Dr Chris and the entire staff for a memorable stay.Note: The route to the house from Madurai via Athoor leaving NH37 is under 10 km but has a hilly terrain with potholes and bumpy roads. Please drive carefully in the dark.read more

Undoubtedly, our best homestay experience so far! This place has all you can ask for in terms of a serene ambiance,... great food, cleanliness, thoughtful amenities (attention to the utmost detail), courteous staff, and the wonderful Chris! This is the perfect getaway to forget the hustle and bustle of urban city life. This place will put your life on 0.5 - .25x (slow it down) and give you space to think and have meaningful conversations with your loved ones. Like all great places, this place too doesn't accept all guests - you need to be respectful of the hosts (the crew there) and other guests!read more

We were looking for a quiet place to spend a night, close to Dindigul.We chanced upon Cardamom House in our internet... search and are glad we did !Our stay at cardamom House was awesome - away from the city hustle and bustle in the midst of nature in the foothills of the Palani Hills, overlooking the Kamaraj reservoir.The staff went out of their way to make us comfortable and take care of our food needs. It felt great not to have a TV in the room and just chill out in the verandah with the family.Would highly recommend this place if you are looking for a quiet home away from home experience.Thanks to Chris, Murugesan, Pandi and team for making our stay memorable.Wishing Chris good heath and many years of active life at Cardamom House !read more

We stayed for a night en route to Kerala and were taken care of by Murugeshan and Samy extremely well. Their service is... extraordinarily commendable! We were celebrating my husband’s birthday, and they brought out a cake and rose garland for him! The meals are freshly made and they will check with you to understand your likes and needs. The food was awesome! The weather is beautiful and pleasant. We took nature walks and enjoyed every minute of our time spend there. Definitely recommend everyone to stay here!read more
