Vazhoor

Vazhoor is set amongst thousands of acres of rubber trees planted by the British on the slopes of the Cardamom Hills, and there are some lovely views over the misty Western Ghats. The land around Vazhoor is incredibly fertile, full of cocoa, pepper, coffee, pineapple, papaya and banana plantations, dotted with handsome, whitewashed plantation houses with tiled roofs. It makes a perfect base for visiting the Aranmula Cultural Centre, on the banks of the River Pamba, to see Kathakali (classical Keralan dance) or take courses on Indian astrology or natural medicine. It is near Kottayam, Kerala's main Syrian Christian centre, which has two 16th century churches.

Client Testimonials

Everything you did for us whilst we were away was hugely appreciated, and Ampersand has been exemplary in every way. I'll always recommend you!
- Mr Richard Stoughton, Sri Lanka
We have just returned back from a wonderful trip. Thank you very much for organising everything. The transfer was excellent – for once they had perfect car seats. The villa was lovely, just what we needed and the hotel had helpfully put us as far away as possible from everyone else. The breakfast buffet was the best I have ever seen – and I am slightly obsessive over breakfast!! There was an incredible choice, something for everyone and so beautifully presented. A real highlight of the trip. Thank you again for sorting everything - and at such short notice!
- Redmayne family, Phuket
Getting to Amanpulo from Manila was very simple and the beach was the most beautiful I’d ever been on; pristine white sand, not a single piece of rubbish in sight. You get your own solar powered golf buggy to drive around resort (and a butler at request). The views from the Hillside Casita were spectacular!
- Mr Wyburd, Philippines
