LymondHouse

Ooty's timeless charm, held within a gracious British colonial bungalow.

The house

A distinguished example of British colonial architecture, Lymond House keeps its original woodwork, deep verandas and established gardens.

Days here are shaped by the light: breakfast under the pergola, an afternoon with a book by the fire, dinner at a long table with the hills going blue outside.
