ELLESMERA

Ellesmera is nestled atop the highest area of Kodaikanal (2330 meters ABSL). The compound covers an area of 1.5 acres. It is tucked away at a dead-end bordered on one side by the forest and the Kodaikanal Solar Observatory's private forest on the other; despite this glorious seclusion, it is just 3.5 km from the lake, and it has great views of the surrounding hills and the plains beyond. Ellesmera is a home stay in a large 4 bedroom house, and 3 rooms are currently being let out as a Bed & Breakfast. Come experience the increasingly rare Kodaikanal of yesteryear... At Ellesmera, we grow a changing variety of our own vegetables and herbs. Vegetables include broccoli, carrot, cauliflower, brussels sprout, corn, pea, and butter bean. Some of the herbs we grow are basil, chamomile, parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme.
