    No private transport possible. The place is in the middle of nowhere in Lovedale so travel to and fro is literally absent unless you book a 10k Traveller or something.

    The hospitality and the view.

    Though the stay had its positives, getting there was tough. It was about 4 km from the main road on a very narrow path, making it especially hard at night, and turning the car around was difficult too.

    The owner's cooperation, the availability of kitchen facilities for morning tea, and the beautiful outside view all contributed to a very pleasant experience.

    The photos showed in booking.com did not represent the place we stayed. I came with a different imagination to find out a different place to stay. Place where we stayed was not clean, too sandy. Not enough utensils or cleaned utensils. We were charged for good and service tax but it was not worth paying. However we managed with the tiny area or places for all 6 of us.

    The entrance ramp hump is too huge which impacts vehicle to enter the property premises and parking on the road side needs parking assistance (family or friends) due to narrow rd size

    The property owner Ms Vaisala is a nice warm welcoming lady.

    The stay was overall fine. However, since the host was elderly and managing things alone without any staff, we had to request basics like towels, handwash, soap, and plates multiple times. There weren’t any provisions for tea or coffee either. The kitchen is available, but it wasn’t clear whether it’s fully equipped. So I’d suggest going prepared—carry your essentials, plan to cook your own meals, or check if Swiggy delivers in the area. Otherwise, the nearest city with food options is about 2 km away.

    The location was lovely, and staying together as a family in one big space with 9 beds across three rooms was a real plus! The host was very friendly and easy to talk to—she speaks Tamil, Kannada, Hindi, and English, which made communication smooth and comfortable.

    Anyone booking this property please read this review if you dont want to ruin your vacation. This property is owned by an old lady in her 70s. It's very evident that she has no clue on technology use. And plz for heaven sake don't go with the photographs posted online. She has 6 portions (so called cottages) in this place. And has posted pictures probably of the newest. I went by the pictures and booked this stay and called this lady for confirmation. She seemed clueless and said she will get back to me. After a while she called and said she has received the booking update. She again called after a hour and asked for advance payment. I paid her 1.5k advance without hesitation. But this lady was very cunning and never revealed any of her plans. Only upon arrival (we visited on a long weekend in April-summer vacation) she showed us the portion that she planned to accommodate us. As somebody else mentioned in their comment it was a 'garage'. Oldest rooms of her house was given to us. I am sure this lady received bookings from multiple sites and didn't know to block ones that were confirmed by other sites. And shamelessly she asked me for the remaining money. I can't believe I paid 5k for the dirty rooms of her own house. I could literally walk to her bedroom from my portion. I mean to say zero privacy. I could have definitely gone for a better option if I was informed in advance about the actual place she planned to accommodate us. Considering factors like her age (must be 75 plus) and the peak season - non-availability of rooms/wastage of time in hunting a better option on the actual day of vacation, we decided to adjust. But I will never suggest this place to anyone. Parking facility is bad. There were 4 cars on the narrow parking area. We had to leave for sightseeing at 6 am on Sunday morning. We had no option but to disturb an young couple that early in the morning just to remove their car so that we could take our car outside.

    Few more negatives: Roads are narrow but decent location. Not a single shop nearby. We wanted some toiletries as nothing was provided despite charging 5k for her haunted house (best part is that this granny told us some old stories and mentioned that she has 9 children who stay in ooty, but none stay with her in this haunted house). Bachelor's may somehow adjust, but definitely not for couples, couples with kids or elderly people. If she can't host guests she should simply enjoy retirement as she has enough for her living. Please don't ruin our precious vacations with your dream projects like this.

    Liked everything

    The location and surrounding. It was right at the edge of a hill and the amma caretaker will treat you like her own children provide you with utensils induction cooker ingredients hot water and camp fire at an extra cost... But be ready to walk 2 to 3 stories up and down everyday for commuting.
