Gardens & Parks
Neighbouring planters' gardens carry on where the estate ends, and a pine forest above Kurseong keeps a deer park.
MAYFAIR EXPERIENCE
In a working tea estate

The heated outdoor pool on the terrace: warm water under cold mountain air, with the hills going dark beyond it at dusk.

The games room, with a table tennis table and a billiards table, for an afternoon indoors.

Stays are all-inclusive, and the kitchen cooks to the day rather than to a printed card, for the dining room or the pavilion open to the hills.

At dusk the fire is lit on the terrace with chairs drawn round it, and inside the house the fireplaces still work.

In season, follow the morning's leaf from the slopes to the estate's factory and into the tasting room, where it is weighed, brewed and tasted.
Day trips and short drives from Jungpana, with the travel time to each.

Neighbouring planters' gardens carry on where the estate ends, and a pine forest above Kurseong keeps a deer park.

Crags above the town look out over tea-covered hills falling to the plains, with a forest museum set among the pines.

Kurseong holds the record of the narrow-gauge hill railway, and the Bose family house at Giddapahar stands open to visitors.

Monsoon water comes off the Kurseong hills into a fall in dense forest, and settles again in a lake with gardens.
