As a bunch of friends living in a city, we were looking for a change of pace. “Grassroots” proved to be the epitome of a responsible traveller’s getaway – and what I mean by this is that it isn't what I would call a mainstream “resort”, it evidently thrives on it's natural surroundings, not in spite of it. Given that... More

It is indeed too bad that you had to have an experience like you did, that too of all the places in a property like 'Grassroots'. I keep reading reviews on trip advisor regularly and after this wonderful trip, I couldn't resist writing my first review. We had visited Grassroots with our friends last july, and our experience was so... More

Setting the Context : We went as a group of three couples between May 3 and 5 and all of us have kids between the ages of 2 and 7. We chose the place based on the excellent reviews on Tripadvisor....

Having decided to take a day off on our anniversary, I thought of all the romantic places to go to.But none appealed. I remembered that Rachel (Owner) had invited me to come and take a look at the place. We went through the usual pictures and stuff and decided to book. Rachel gave us an awesome deal.

My wife and I spent a longish weekend at Grassroots. One of the days spent there marked our second wedding anniversary. Firstly, landing in Calicut and the drive up to Grassroots was very pleasant. And then, at the back of the your mind, you are thinking "this IS a tent, this is what I signed up for. But God, let... More

Nestled amongst the hills and tea estates of Wayanad is Grassroots. Defining it within the confines of a 'resort' or 'hotel' would be limiting - rather it should be called an experience - and a beautifully memorable one at that! We stayed at Grassroots Wayanad for 5 days during April end (2013). Everything about the property oozes elegance and rustic... More

We spent a day at Grassroots with friends after our wedding in February. The resort was stunning and oozes charm. We could not have felt more welcome. The vibes of Nora Jones floating out across the patio when we arrived set the scene. We were treated to beers and local drinks, as well as tea & cakes by our wonderful... More

Set on a three acre slope of coffee, areca nut and pepper, Grassroots overlooks the tea plantations planted during the colonial era.
