Nilambur Kovilakoms - Being traditional with a touch of Simplicity.........

Being traditional with a touch of Simplicity.........

Once you pass through crowded Nilambur town, take a turn from the highway and enter the secluded compound through the arched gateway ( accessible for medium sized vehicles only), the calmness and the different architecture strikes you instantly. Amongst the patches of greenery , you would fine houses looking alike...... with absolute silence for company !!

Puthiya Kovilakam at Nilambur presents you with the chance of staying with a very active and energetic Varma family.. the best of hosts you can imagine in an ancient kovilakom typical to North Kerala with its tiled roofs and wooden structures. Kovilakom has 02 rooms for the guests and with its long corridors, open courtyards and ancient utensils takes you a few hundred years back.

Being Traditional" in "Simple" ways, remains the salient feature of this house and it reflects in every aspect right from the ever pleasing wonderful host , to the architecture... and of course the food and the life style.

The near by temple of Vettakorumakan ( Kiratha incarnation of Lord Shiva) is an abode of peace and one can spend many hours silently gazing at the calm and picturesque settings. The murmur of the breeze emanating from the nearby river presents the perfect background score.
The river bank bordered by the rock beds under the shade of trees forms an ideal refreshing spot for mornings and evenings when the sun is not at his peak.

Nilambur is an ideal midway stop if you are driving from Cochin to Ootty or Cochin to Wayanad or vice versa. It boasts of a very rich history and known for its Teak plantations. The famed Teak plantation is only a stones throw away from the Kovilakom.
