Willow Hill By Nature Resorts Is Located 20 Km From Coonoor
Just a stone’s throw from Ooty’s celebrated Botanical Garden, Willow Hill presents nine exquisitely crafted rooms. Jacaranda, Spathodea, Eucalyptus, Walnut, Cypress, Fir, Tea Tree, Oakwood and Pinewood. Each chamber is a sanctuary.
The fine wooden interiors are decked with contemporary furnishings. There are also select rooms that offer private garden access — a privilege for those seeking solitude amongst blooms. The Bird of Paradise restaurant beckons with its culinary delights, whilst the garden’s glasshouse sets the stage for romantic candlelit dinners. Fancy a proper English afternoon tea? They serve it with a flourish.
Modern luxuries abound within each room: plush king-size beds draped in premium linens, modern en-suite bathrooms stocked with thoughtful amenities, and all the contemporary conveniences one expects. Yet it’s the little touches that captivate! There is a pillow menu, personalised service, and views that steal one’s breath away.
