Windermere Retreats: A Legacy of Nature, Heritage & Hospitality Tucked away in the heart of Kerala’s Western Ghats, Windermere Retreats is a collection of two boutique hideaways that celebrate the harmony of nature, heritage, and refined hospitality. Set against the backdrop of a UNESCO World Heritage site, our retreats offer a sanctuary where time slows down, and every moment is steeped in serenity. At Windermere Estate, Munnar, a 90-year-old working plantation unfolds into an intimate 18-room retreat, where mist-laden tea hills and the scent of cardamom set the stage for an authentic plantation experience. At Windermere River House, Neriamangalam, a stately five-room colonial bungalow stands gracefully on the banks of the Periyar River, offering a tranquil riverside escape embraced by ancient teak forests. Rooted in simplicity yet infused with understated luxury, Windermere Retreats invites travellers to reconnect—with nature, with heritage, and with themselves.
