The Meadow View Inn is a lovely little place set apart from the road which runs down to the Periyar wildlife sanctuary entrance from the main town. The main attraction must be the unique view over the fields - we saw more animal life from our sweet balcony window than the boat in the park itself. The rooms are pretty... More

Spending a couple of weeks in india, this was obviously the best surprise we had. We booked 3 nights, and decided to spend a fourth. The hotel / homestay is just remarkable, with a wonderful view from our room (all room i think) on the forest / jungle. Easy to get in the city, but just far enough not to... More

Great location, away from the main road and overlooking the Periwar Reserve. We couldn't beleve our luck in getting such a good place to stay. Our three sided verander overlooked a meadow surounded by jungle on three sides. From our swing seats we saw wild boar, barking deer (rutting!), bison, a mongoose, kingfishers and numerous waders. This was more than... More

Came to Meadow view on a recommendation from a friend and was not disappointed! Spotted the sign off the main road a few hundred yards from the entrance to the wildlife park and was welcomed into a well kept front garden/cafe area by the owner Sateesh. The room was basic but lovely, clean and equipped with a mosquito net. Had... More

I wanted to like Meadow View. The courtyard is lovely and the view from the rooms over the meadow is quite nice. The hosts were extremely helpful and happy to organise excursions and tours. My problems started when I lay down to sleep. Within five minutes my eyes were watering, I started sneezing and generally displaying all the symptoms of... More

What an experience! And what a house, that place is incredible. If you're looking for a different place to stay but still comfortable and cosy, there you go. Located a hundred meters far from the road and directly facing the jungle this place is the ultimate Keralan experience. Rooms are all very well furnished, and with incredible views on the... More

The homestay is located on the edge of a meadow bordering Periyar Tiger Reserve. We didn't see any tigers or elephants there. But sitting on our... More
