Set amidst the dramatic tea valleys in Munnar is a beautiful and unique cottage - construction of cottage is with eco friendly materials without disturbing the natural terrain of the land. The rooms at Greenspaces are earthy colored, with well-crafted wooden floors and ceilings
This land, where I have created this lovely cottage, is also home to a very interesting and accommodating flora and fauna and yes, I have deprived them of a bit of their territory and a lot of their privacy to create Greenspaces for you. I have taken great care not to disturb them. The insects and birds still dwell around. I have known them from the day I arrived here to create this dwelling. In fact, they are contributing their bit to make this place homely and welcoming. I have created custom designed handmade paper lampshades in the rooms in the cottage and oil paintings on the walls have been painted by me.
There are rare wild birds with colourful plumage that sing sonorously, all around the resort premises. Bird watchers can spend hours watching the winged surprises all around them. Malabar whistling Thrush, Gray and White-browned wagtail, Red whisked bulbul, Koel, Woodpecker, Parrots, Long Tailed Shrikes, Hornbills etc., are frequently sighted around geenspaces. A great way to enjoy the landscape is to take a walk through the famed tea gardens of Munnar or along the evergreen trees under the shade of which the cardamom is cultivated.
