The stay at the cottage was really pleasant. The moment you walk up the narrow driveway, the scenery changes immediately. You feel suddenly among the jungle. The rooms are clean, neat and well-maintained. The washrooms are spacious. And the ambience... If you happen to wake up a little early in the morning (I suggest you should), thick fog which streaks of golden sunlight will welcome you right at the balcony. In the evening, you can enjoy the bonfire. The food is really nice and is one of the major highlights of this resort. The host, Mr. Martin, is very welcoming and will personally look over your dining and breakfasts. Overall, very good. However, if you want to be amid the jungle and enjoy theb serene weekend, you probably give it a miss.

We stayed with our 3 years old twin boys here in December 2016. Overall it was a nice experience to spend 2 days in green mount cottage-Waynad. Location is inside kalpetta town but away from all the noise of main road. We got ground floor room and was satisfactory clean. Breakfast is complimentary and it was excellent! Authentic Kerala cuisine-Idli,sambar and Chutany. We enjoyed Filter coffee too !! They don’t provide Lunch/Dinner but there are few good hotels near homestay. Excellent Host! He treated us like his family and gave good guidance of tourist places in Waynad. We asked from where we can get Waynad to Mysore bus? He just told us don’t worry and opt government bus …I will drop you early in the morning to the bus stop and he did as promised!! Very Very Good host !!

Visited Green Mount Cottage during New Year's 2018 and quite approve of it. The landlord is very humble and nice, serving authentic local breakfasts for a truly Kerala experience.
The place has a beautiful green compound overlooking a lot of greenery and is located right next to the Kalpetta bus stand. Keep in mind that the place is some distance away from Wayanad but offers for much economical residential options. You can always hire a vehicle, something the landlord offered to do for me.
The rooms are pretty big and there are extra mattresses available, so don't overbook. Talking over phone before booking should work.
The cleanliness of the room, though, left me a little wanting. The bedsheets and the blankets need to be cleaner. I think that's where the cottage can improve. There was some construction going on when I went, which meant it wasn't as peaceful as it should have been, but that should be one-off, so don't worry too much about it.
Give it a try. I'll recommend it. Had a nice time.
NOTE Me
Green mount cottage is OYO HOME, situated in kalpetta. Location is very silent area but narrow road difficult for two cars same time. This OYO HOME stay maintained good and owner Mr. Martin very good person,great behaviour and helping mentality. Room is moderate spacious with 5×6 feet bed and also extra bed provided 3×6 , but extra bed have no cot, need to sleep down. Room have small dining table for 4 and 2 other chairs. Cleanliness is average ie,2/5 so I rated this home stay 3/5. Bathroom have fouls smell. No mixer in bathroom. Hot water was available in bathroom. Some things itching on bed very difficult to sleep. Dust are in room difficult for people with respiratory problems. No good view or other natural importance here.

We already stayed this property during 2008. It was very clean and neat. He provided complimentary breakfast and night dinner cost basis. Very tasty foods they provided unlimited. We stayed for 2 nights in Green mount cottage. We were 5 of them and booked 2 rooms and allotted upstair. This cottage is run by Mr.Martin and his wife. Mr.Martin owner of this property was very nice and gentleman and moved friendly. They provided complimentary breakfast every day. Complementary breakfast was awesome every day unlimited. (Kadala curry, appam, puttu.....). This place is also closer to kalpetta main road and hence we can visit any nearby hotel or bakery for any food needs in evening or night. Bur this time Oct 26th to 28th 2019, we upset for this property. My son and daughter in law have very upset and unlike this property due to the following reasons: Cost wise it is slightly high compared to other best hotel and cottage They provided used pillow cover and bed sheets. It is dirty and bad smell. Pillow cover and bed sheets are not clean. The bedding and mattress need to be improved and can be more clean and neat We saw Leech (Attai poochi) inside the room and bath room during our entire staying. They not provided drinking water. Next day we asked and he gave two bottles of water. Third day he was not gave. Toiletry items only soap given. No wall clock, it is very difficult to know night and early mornings time. No staff provided to maintain, clean cottage and room. Staircases was not clean every day and no light in staircase. Night time it is very difficult to step down and up. We complained balcony light not function and tap water leak in bathroom. But he did not rectify till we checkout. They have not provided light in the main entrance of the cottage. It is dark during night. Proper maintenance made in this property, it is one of the best property to stay in Wayanad.

It’s awesome cottage, you can tell like home. I never saw such a large bathroom in cottages. Well maintained and very cleaned. Food is available based on the request. Food is yummy you can get Tamilnadu and Kerala style food. Just one minute walk from Kalpeta New bus stand, easy to reach the place. It’s in the Center of the town. It has parking facility too

Situated in the Wayanad district of Kerala, Green Mount Cottage is an exotic residential property offering excellent facilities to its visitors. The most distinct feature about this cottage is that they organise a severe quality check within their cottage to ensure top-quality services are being provided to their customers.
This famous Kerala cottage is built in the heart of Kalpetta area so it is accessible from all major tourist attractions of the city. They also provide homemade meals on special demands of the visitors which makes it truly a value-for-money accommodation.
