Needed a short break and Nilgiri Cottage was just the ticket.Adequate sleeping areas for winter (heated with electric blankets) or summer as verandahs are enclosed bedrooms when weather is hot. Kitchen was functional and well equipped.Place was cosy and fitted like a glove to our routine. We visited in winter so room and lounge heating covered those bases. Next time we'll bring some fire wood for heating.For astronomy, the skies were clear and views were 360 degrees. Also very quiet.We used Nilgiri as a home base for exploring and day trips.We'll be back.
