Offbeat Ooty? Welcome to Kotagiri. Set at 6,400 ft in the Nilgiris district of Tamil Nadu, Kotagiri offers cool weather, clean mountain air, & sweeping views of the Western Ghats, minus the tourist chaos!

It’s one of South India’s oldest hill stations & was a popular summer retreat during British times, but it still feels untouched & relaxed.

The town is surrounded by rolling hills & vast tea estates, offering clean air, open spaces, & plenty of great photo spots.

Our stay is nestled in the middle of a 2-acre tea estate. Take spontaneous tea walks, enjoy homely food, & truly unwind in the calm.

For sunset, we ride to Kodanad View Point — where rolling tea gardens open up to endless hills and valleys. A golden-hour view you won’t forget.
