The earth has music for those who listen" wrote William Shakespeare. John Muir quoted “In every walk with nature, one receives far more than they seek”. The hills have a way of putting things into perspective. Beautiful Ooty does is exactly that. Boasting a cool and comforting climate almost all year round, lakes and gardens, parks and peaks, valleys and waterfalls, and simply amazing accommodation options, this quaint town that was once the erstwhile summer getaway of the British Raj is one of the most sought-after tourism destinations in India. Often referred to as the ‘Switzerland of India’, it’s rich splendor and scenic beauty, Shola forests, diverse flora and fauna, jungles and wildlife, make Ooty a must visit destination. Relax over a cup of tea, sit back and gaze at the vastness of its nature, take a ride in our very own UNESCO Heritage Train, or watch the Toda Tribes make unique shawls, there’s much to do in beautiful Ooty. Boat rides to film making destinations, shopping and dreamy acres of gardens, “The hills are alive with the sound of Music”. Lovely isn’t it? You’re gonna need some where to stay! Right in the middle of all the action is place to be!

Welcome to “Church Hill Cottages” – a family run guesthouse by the Lillywhite family. “Helping hands” says the 84 year old mechanic turned Hotelier. “Would like a cup of tea?” says the lady of the house. Her wisdom and kindness molded from years of being a teacher. “We chose this location to build our hotel and our home, because it’s a quiet area, yet perfectly located for convenience”. With shopping and eateries just a few minutes walk, 900 meters to the famous Botanical Gardens, 1.5 km to the Rose Garden, 3.4 km to the Boat House and the Ooty Lake, 7 km to the highest point in the Nilgiris, we’re literally; a stones’ throw away. The nearest airport is Coimbatore Internationl Airport (CJB),85 km from Church Hill Cottages. There’s much to see and do in the Nilgiris.
