nice place but no one control other watching there in bad habbits...
A nice place to spend your evening. Banglaw renovation is going on now. So not possible to enter into banglaw. You can spend 2 to 3 Hr total.
Old DFO Bungalow is within the city Of Nilambur at an elevated small hill top surrounding tree including Teak with a skywalk in steel for tourist to enjoy. Renovation work is going on during my visit. Entry fee is applicable for person and car parking fee too at the checkpost. Opens 9am and closed by 5pm. check for weekly Holiday and public holidays.
Bungalow kunnu is famous for the bangalow that was the highlight of the popular Malayalam movie, 'Bhargavi Nilayam'. This D.F.O bangalow is situated 2km away from Chanthakunnu bus-stop in Nilambur, Malappuram. A visitor to Nilambur may find a few hours to spend at this bangalow which was earlier the official residence of British forest officers. Wen Kerala state was formed, it came under the forest department of Nilambur. The forest officers had their residence here. It was also the office of flying squad and wireless operating centre. Later it became a part of Eastern Tourism Corridor and a sky-walk through the new circuit road was constructed at a height of 6 metres and a total length of 100 metres. One can enjoy the serene beauty of the forest endowed with calmness. This region is a photographer's paradise. Those who love photography can click stunning frames in the forest. A lovely place to spend your leisure with your family or friends. It is not safe to trek inside the forest late night. You can see many dilapidated bangalows here. In case you wish to stay here, you can avail the dormitory service of the forest department. The other spots of tourist attractions close by are the Nilambur Kovilakam, Teak Museum, Cannoli plot, Chaliyar Mukku, Adyanpara falls, Kakkadampoyil and Nadukani Churam.

This place is under management of forest department so that some rules should follow. Calm and quite atmosphere . Even they consume entry ticket they are not well maintained.
Remenescence of the Colonial days. Originally the building was the District Forest Officer's Bunglow, now maintained as a tourist attraction by the forest department. Located about 2 km from downtown, on the top of a small hill, surrounded by serene woods. The skywalk provided through this lush green mahogany forest is a refreshing experience. The building displays its past glory by way of balconies with a view, massive teakwood staircase & flooring and belgium glass windows; but one could feel the lack of attention by the authorities to maintain it properly. The walls are shabby and not painted since long.
Historical Bungalow Since 1928.... Nothing is there inside the Bungalow and the entry fee is high (entry, parking, camera fee) but only one thing, we can explore the nature
