Why we love Coorg in the monsoon

Waterfalls everywhere, the estate in full green and nobody else on the roads.
Most people avoid the Western Ghats in the rains. That is exactly why you should go.
The sound of it
Rain on a tiled roof is the best sleep aid ever invented. Mistwood Cottage has a fireplace and a deep verandah, so you can watch the downpour with a book and a hot cup of coffee.
What to pack
A good rain jacket, leech socks for the estate walks, and something warm for the evenings. Your host has umbrellas.
