Hidden amidst the lush green tea plantations of the Dickoya estate - one of the earliest plantations in the hill country, the warm comforts of Mandira Craig Appin Bungalow awaits your arrival. A beautiful old colonial residence that was home to planters in the days of British rule, it is now a luxurious retreat for those who wish to relive the past on an authentic journey to days gone by. A sea of green ripples across the landscape, with wave upon wave of tea in neat rows leading the way up to clear blue skies. Ancient Spathodea trees ablaze with flame coloured flowers stand tall, side by side with spruce and pine. Down below the famous colonial landmark of the hills, the Darawala Club continues to host games of cricket as it did in its heyday. From the perfectly manicured lawn of Craig Appin you can breathe in these sights of tranquillity and believe that you have indeed, turned back time.
