CGH Earth Saha, known for its collection of handpicked escapes, has introduced Marli Hill Bungalow in the Nilgiris. Nestled atop a quiet hill in Ooty, this six-room retreat combines colonial charm with modern comfort, offering guests an intimate stay steeped in history, art, and nature.

The bungalow’s character comes alive through antique furniture, wooden floors, handpicked artworks, and locally inspired textiles. Each corner reflects the elegance of a bygone era while staying rooted in the warmth of contemporary hospitality.

The dining experience is at the heart of Marli Hill, where guests gather in a colonial-inspired hall to enjoy meals prepared by in-house chefs. The menu blends traditional Tamil flavours with subtle British-Raj influences, all made with fresh, locally sourced ingredients. Leisurely afternoons are marked by high tea in the garden, complete with sculptures, flowering shrubs, and vintage garden furniture, while evenings feature alfresco barbecues under starlit skies.

What makes the stay truly personal is the team at Marli Hill, whose warmth and storytelling add depth to the experience. “Marli Hill Bungalow reimagines hospitality with a luxurious yet homely stay, nestled in the heart of Ooty,” said George Joseph, Vice President, Operations, CGH Earth.

As part of our Saha collection, Marli Hill represents everything we stand for: authenticity, sensitivity to place, and meaningful experiences. Designed for multi-generational families, friends, couples, and even solo travellers, Saha properties create an intimate setting where every guest is cared for with personal attention.”

Guests can choose to unwind by the fireplace, lounge, or garden gazebo, or explore Ooty’s attractions just a short drive away. From Doddabetta Peak and the Botanical and Rose Gardens to Pykara Waterfalls and Wenlock Downs, the region offers abundant natural and cultural richness. A nostalgic ride on the Nilgiri Mountain Railway, with stops at Dolphin’s Nose and Droog Fort, adds to the charm.

For heritage lovers, guided walks to colonial landmarks like St. Stephen’s Church or visits to Toda tribal villages showcase the Nilgiris’ layered traditions. Back at the bungalow, evenings close with barbecues and fireside conversations under the crisp Nilgiri sky.

With its quiet elegance, heritage character, and heartfelt hospitality, Marli Hill Bungalow stands as a soulful sanctuary in Ooty, a rare retreat that blends colonial nostalgia with the mindful luxury CGH Earth is known for.
