The Regent Hill - Homestay tucked in coffee plantation

It is always refreshing to see a colonial cottage bearing an old world charm in a small town. If you are looking to make Yercaud your next holiday destination, this homestay should be on your list. Tucked in the coffee plantations of the Shevaroy range of hills, the pleasant weather and the lush green surroundings make the place perfect for a holiday away from the city. Acquired from an old European lady called Miss Kinipel, Vishu has maintained a part of the old flooring of the house along with some distinct features like the high roofed ceiling and colonial decor. Among the many things re-furbished, the bathrooms and attached lawns to the four cottages are most delightful.

One is bound to catch onto Vishu's enthusiasm and interest in many varied things like Bonsais, design, dogs, butterflies, horses, photography and much more. Having traversed a large part of the world,conversation flows quite seamlessly.

Established in 1860, the house has an illustrious guest list, bearing names like Charles Dickens, Sir Robert Clive and the Nizam of Hyderabad.
