Situated at an altitude of 4150 feet, this heritage bungalow is more than 100 years old and offers magnificent views on all sides.

The stay is equipped with 4 rooms with polished wooden floors and moulded ceiling, each with an attached bathroom. The stay itself is the tea planter's bungalow which has been restored to fully reflect its colonial-era heritage.

The estate is a 600-acre expanse of land with forests, mountain slopes, streams, waterfalls and tea fields which guests are more than welcome to explore. Guests can go hiking on the tea slopes and interactions with tea pluckers and understand how tea is plucked and sorted.
