Nilgiris Farm Stays — Tea, Gardens & Vegetable Farms
The Nilgiris — Ooty, Coonoor and Kotagiri — are Tamil Nadu's 2,000-m 'blue mountains', where colonial tea estates meet India's largest vegetable-growing farms (carrots, cabbage, potatoes) about 90 km from Coimbatore. Nilgiris farm stays span tea-bungalow classics to working vegetable farms with the heritage toy train between them.
