Farmstay in Kannur District

"This is the most clean, comfortable and welcoming stay I've had in my 7 week journey through India. The room was beautifully decorated with solid wooden furniture. It was light, airy and spacious. The bed was so comfortable, and the white linen soft and clean. We slept so well. The staff listened to us and gave us so much advice during our one night stay. The food was incredible too. Traditional Keralan food - with plenty of choices. We also appreciated the bar. Our only criticism would be the loud Western music which was played during our meal. We prefer Indian music when in India, but that's just us - and only a minor point. We are so pleased we stayed and would have loved to have stayed longer. lots of also appri"

"More privacy, unnecessary knocking on door or phone calls to the room"

"The property itself is very unique, very peaceful and the staff very helpful "

"Room (loft) was very spacious with view. It’s modern, clean, and comfortable. I carried a power adapter but found that they already have receptacles that will accept American, European, and UK plugs. They also have USB outlets. We had a nice balcony but couldn’t use it due to rain. We only spent one night but it was worthwhile. "

"So close to nature and its surreal "

"Over a number of years we have stayed at lots of different hotels in India ranging from 2 star to 5 star and the Oshin Hotel in Kalpetta was the best for us. The standards of hygiene were excellent (no bugs in sight), all areas of the hotel were spotlessly clean and whatever we asked for e.g. iron and ironing board, extra coat hangers, more towels etc, were produced in moments. What makes this hotel extra special are the staff, every single one of them whether it was a housemaid, reception staff, restaurant staff or manager went out of their way to help and were always cheerful and friendly. There is an onsite restaurant and coffee shop, just a couple of things to be aware of 1. The menu is predominantly Indian (well you are in India) however there are one or two European dishes available and 2 .The hotel is alcohol free but the mocktails were delicious and we never noticed the absence of booze. We didn’t use the on site swimming pool or gymnasium but they never appeared crowded. Outside of the hotel it’s about a five minute walk to an ATM and auto rickshaws. Alternatively, if you need a taxi the hotel will arrange this for you. We had a wonderful stay and have given the Oshin Hotel a five star rating - it deserved nothing less. "

"Stay was good, exceptional service by restaurant staff, they made something off menu when requested, also everything was tasty. One thing they can improve is the welcoming part when guests arrive.. also please note the road to property around 500 metres is small and narrow, hardly a suv pass through.. otherwise all fine"

"The rooms are fine, but the view from the property is amazing."

"Food at the restaurant is really good."
