    If you’re staying near Thattekad, the Maram Resort Mamalakandam is a convenient budget option just over 14 km away. For a cheap hop to Bhoothathankettu Dam, catch the local bus from the village bus stand fares are a few rupees and the route stops right at the dam entrance. From the same stand you can board a shared auto to Hill Palace Museum; the ride takes about 20 minutes and costs under ₹50.
