DETAILED DESCRIPTION

Carriage House Suite

The carriage house bedrooms are enormous because the building maintained its high ceilings from when it used to be horse stables, prior to the current owners buying the property. Enjoy the comfortable privacy this separate building offers.

The master bedroom features a grand king-size bed and a loft with two additional single beds. Ideal for a family of four.

Carriage House Bedroom

The smaller bedroom in the Carriage House is the newest, built during the most recent renovations of the property.

Main House - Loft Bedrooms

The two bedrooms at the back of the house used to be single-storey rooms with bunk beds, which children loved to sleep in so they could see the room from a different angle. To pay homage to the rooms’ history, these bedrooms have been converted into loft bedrooms, with a study area below and a king-size mattress on top.

Main House - Front Bedrooms

Relax in one of the two large bedrooms at the front of the Main House, light streaming through their many windows. The Parsi cupboards in these rooms were a gift from a brother-in-law.

Living Room

The comfortable seating in the living room is surrounded by windows, providing a nearly uninterrupted view of the green splendour outside. The roof of this room was once made of galvanised tin, and during renovations it was covered with pine wood to provide a warmer, more homely feel to the space.

Dining Room

A solid wall used to divide the dining room and TV lounge, but the decision was made during renovations to remove part of it, opening up the house. The pictures of wildlife on the wall reflect the family’s love for animals, which has been passed down through generations.

TV Lounge

Sit down to watch a match or a movie in the grand, open TV lounge, presided over by a massive python skin. On the wall behind the sofa hang markers of the house’s history, framed for preservation.

Find the deed of the house from 1918, when the English doctor bought it from the Princess of Lovedale Marian Evelyn (for only Rs. 200), a picture of the St. Stephen’s Church in Ooty from 1830 and original print advertisements of Afghan Snow, the legendary beauty cream brand, which the homeowners’ family founded and still make to this day.

Carriage House Lounge

The small lounge of the Carriage House between the bedrooms is a comfortable hangout space to sit in and watch the scenery outside unfold.

Garden & Deck

Relax in the deck’s lounge chairs and soak in the view of the hills, stretching before you like a painting. There are many comfortable seating areas in the garden, in case you want to snack and play board games around a table, enjoy a cup of tea set against the hillside vista or gather around a BBQ or bonfire on a cold day.

Take a seat on the cast-iron benches to admire the Nilgiris landscape from the small teahouse at the edge of the garden.
