Set within rolling tea gardens, Chamomile Hills is a home that feels deeply rooted in its surroundings. Built in a traditional South Indian style, it features open verandahs, a central courtyard, and classic elements like Chettinad tiles that add warmth and character. Spread across 1.5 acres, the space offers uninterrupted views of the valley and an easy connection to the outdoors. Life here unfolds at a slower pace. Guests can spend their time exploring the estate, enjoying indoor games, or simply unwinding with a view. Evenings are best spent around a bonfire or on the terrace as the hills cool down.
