The Nilgiris' best kept secret awaits you in
the heart of Ooty
SINCE 1827
Welcome to Kelso House
Welcome to Kelso: An heritage family home in the Nilgiris for those who long for the lost art of travelling to explore, and grow. One of the first ever settlements there, the 200-year old Kelso House is as old as the storied mountain-town of Ooty itself. Home to not just Ooty's history but also to the warmest of its hospitality, Kelso House is a local icon of unconditional love.
THE FAMILY
Our heart is where
the home is. An ancient family home, now open to you.
Home to our family for generations, Kelso House imbibed in us the gift of seeing a blessing in every guest. Our warm hospitality's personal touch is only surpassed by the air of two centuries worth of calm within.
