On the high ranges, Ashley Bungalow will not only etch but truly realize your finest dream of a summer bungalow. Escape from the heat and pollution to the cool salubrious environment of the High Ranges. Ashley Bungalow built in 1868 by the Baker family is the oldest surviving planters bungalow in Peermedu. It exemplifies the exquisite carpentry of the British Rai. The orignal ambience and decor has been carefully preserved to reflect the life style of the early British planter. Share in the laid back and graceful life style of the Munroe's and Richardsons. You will hear the strain of music in the moonlight and the sound of the hoof on the flagstones. This cozy remote getaway is located 2 Km. from Kuttikanam amidst the plantations of the renowned AVG group of companies.

This sylvan sanctuary is situated at 4000ft. above sea level among the tea plantations where heaven and earth merge. Free from the stressful city sound bytes in this nostalgic abode is the unmixed tradition of the Raj era. The famous Periyar Tigar reserve is just an hour drive away.

Ashley gives your eyes a fascinating and hypnotizing feast of scenic beauty of tea and cardamom plantations landscaped in misty green along the silvery clouds. You can have a relaxing massage at the nearby Ayurvedic rejuvenation centre.

Ideal for trekking, with natural water falls
A cascading water fall with a natural bathing pool called "Madamma Kulam" (Madam's Pool) was a favourite bathing spot for Ashley's proprietress. The air is fresh, serene and fragrant where you can learn to become more aware of the beauty of nature.
Its Cool Cozy and Warm.

Live the Ashley Legacy
Come, live and be part of a legacy. Curling up simply under your warm wraps, and dreaming the clip-clops of a lone horse echoing down the memory lane and waking up over a mug of garden fresh steaming tea a joy to make you come back to Ashley again, again and again.
Ashley is Home - a home away from home.
