What our customers say

We came for two nights and stayed four. Waking to bed tea and the mountain turning pink outside the window is something I will not forget, and dinner at the long table felt like being part of the family.

The tasting with the tea maker was the highlight of our trip to India. Nothing was hurried, the house is full of character, and the fires every evening made the cold nights a pleasure.

Very quiet and beautiful. Our suite opened onto the verandah and we had breakfast there every morning watching the clouds move in the valley. The food was the best we had in Darjeeling.

Our honeymoon in the River Suite was perfect. The hosts planned a picnic by the river for us and the toy-train day to Ghum, and every small detail was taken care of.

A real working estate, not a hotel pretending to be one. Walking the sections with the pluckers at seven in the morning and then seeing the leaf in the factory gave us a completely new respect for tea.

We travelled with our two children and the Orchid Suite was ideal. The kitchen made them early suppers, they loved the village walk, and we loved the evenings by the fire.
