Spice Village – A CGH Earth Hotel
Eden found in Thekkady
Spice Village is a wonderful eco-friendly property.
One of the hotel’s unique aspects is its close proximity to the Periyar Tiger Reserve where you can embark on all sorts of naturalist-led activities including forest walks, bamboo river rafting and even night trekking. The park is home to 120 bird species, Malabar giant tree squirrels and elephants. It's also worth visiting the Interpretation Centre which is filled with exhibits on the local flora and fauna of the region. After taking a spice plantation tour, learn the skills of how to use them with a cookery lesson with the chef or try a treatment in the Ayurvedic centre or cool off in the chemical-free swimming pool.
Why we love Spice Village – A CGH Earth Hotel
-
You are surrounded by nature and will be woken by birdsong
-
The organic farm grows plenty of vegetables and spices and instead of sugar they use jaggery in meals
-
They support the local community and have trained ex-poachers into naturalist guides
-
In the evening, head to the old-fashioned bar and challenge the Activity Coordinator for a game of billiards on the 100-year-old table
Facilities
Organic and ethically sourced dishes are served in the resort's two main restaurants. Dishes include spiced quail and cardamom chicken curry and a huge range of thalis, a signature regional dish. After dinner, visit the bar where the 100-year old billiards table is the central feature.
Tamarind Restaurant
The main restaurant offering local and regional dishes.
50 Mile Diet Restaurant
Local and seasonal dishes with ingredients sourced no more than 50 miles from the resort.
Wood House Bar
Serving drinks, light snacks and a game of billiards on a vintage table.
To reduce their carbon footprint, the dishes served at the restaurant are part of ‘The 50 Mile Diet’ with ingredients sourced within 50 miles of the resort and from the hotel’s own organic garden.
Rebalance your body and mind with a treatment at the Ayurveda centre.
Explore spice plantations by e-bike, go trekking in Periyar Tiger Reserve, make notebooks in the Handmade Paper Making Centre and learn how to use spices with a cooking lesson with the chef.
As with other CGH Earth accommodation, Spice Village uses solar energy, has stopped the use of single-use plastics and makes gift products from recycled paper. Continuing the hotel’s philosophy of using renewable products wherever possible, you’ll find coir mats on the stone floor and furniture made from recycled wood.
