Had been to Yercaud for 2 days.
Fist day the cyclone called "thane" hit us and we just had to stay indoors.
Stay:
Sophy's resort, View point cottage (Behind 1st petrol bunk).
Took three basic rooms. Tariff: Rs. 820/room.
Pros:
-Friendly service
-Great Tea
-Nice location(loved the view point set up nearby)
Cons:
- Power cut for the entire two days. They have backup only for a CFL on each of the rooms
- Initially they told power would return in 2 hours etc. Then we went out enquired and realized if it rains, in Yercuad power can go off for a week even
- No water through taps. One guy got us water bucket after bucket(Including hot water).
- Bathrooms are too small(tiny)
- Rooms were not too clean
They need to get some backup done rest all is ok.
Eat:
3/4 of meals we had at Saravana bhavan opened recently. Stunned by their service and taste.
Best:
1. Paneer 65
2. Noodles
3. Veg pulav
4. Pongal
5. Ghee roast
Each and every item has quality. Coffee also was great! Do have a meal here
One more eat out: Malar(Inside servoroy hotel). Neat place you can have a peaceful meal. Ours was a budget trip this time, didn't eat anywhere else.
Places to see:
1. Kuliyur falls - We didn't see due to rains, must be a nice place
2. Ladies seat,gents seat - Can be skipped. Gents seat is better, ladies seat is full of Monkeys!
3. Pakoda point - Spend some time here, awesome point
4. Shervoroy temple - Very nice place, scenic
5. Shri Chakra Maha Meru temple - Beautiful temple, - Must see
6. Lake
We didn't have time for anything else, we returned. But loved the place would go back again when I get a chance.
