Highly recommended stay in the middle of the woods in Ooty for all those adventure enthusiasts. We not only got to spend some wonderful time in the stay but also enjoyed the amazing sightseeing experience in the woods. We were assisted by an amazing english speaking tour guide who gave a detailed explanation of all the places we visited. It is indeed a great touring experience.
