Meet your host family
At Malhar Homestay, hospitality is truly a family affair. Each member brings their own warmth, talents, and values to create a space that feels like your home beneath the clouds.
-
Suresh Kumar – The father, a businessman, whose wisdom and grounded nature shape the homestay’s welcoming spirit.
-
Leena P – The mother, a dedicated government teacher, whose kindness and care make every guest feel cherished.
-
Dr. Sruthi Suresh – The daughter, Assistant Professor of Community Medicine at Government Medical College, Nilgiris, and a gifted composer, writer, and singer. Her blend of compassion and creativity infuses the Malhar experience with depth, warmth, and artistry.
-
Sravan Suresh – The son, a clinical psychologist and passionate musician, equally gifted as a composer, writer, and singer. He brings harmony, insight, and emotional balance, creating a space that resonates with peace, comfort, and artistic expression.
Together, we are the Malhar host family – blending care, creativity, and culture to welcome every guest not just as visitors, but as part of our extended family.

"Malhar is designed as a seamless extension of its landscape — contemporary in spirit, yet deeply mindful of nature. Every line, material, and opening is chosen to invite light, wind, and green into daily living. The design celebrates simplicity, sustainability, and comfort, where spaces breathe freely and connect people with the outdoors.
Rather than imposing on the land, Malhar flows with it — using natural ventilation, minimal intervention, and thoughtful detailing to create a home that feels modern, warm, and timeless. To me, it is a space where architecture quietly steps back, allowing nature to take center stage."
