We were a family of around 12 and had booked 4 rooms and a cottage at this homestay. The location of the hotel is amazing especially the cottage. We had a jolly good time playing badminton and carrom. Would easily recommend.

Dalethorpe is certainly one of the very good places to stay in Kodaikanal. Close to the town center & lake yet very quiet and peaceful. What sets this place apart is the greenery in the estate and the service. I recommend this place if you are looking for a calm and relaxing holiday.

One of the best places to stay in kodaikanal. The service was excellent and their hospitality is commendable. There are always there to help you and guide you. Food served is also good and priced reasonably. Had taken a cottage for our stay. Had the facility to have born fire which we enjoyed. Would strongly recommend this place for staying.

Just spent 4 days in this pristine property a short walk from the lake. It is just far enough from the town action that it is very quiet while being on a main road. The gentleman who manages the property is very nice and helpful. Shaheed really likes hosting and does a great job of it. The rooms are well... More

The Place is quite pleasant and spacious more than what i had in mind. The crew members know the real meaning for hospitality. And I am very thankful to Saheeb who is the captain. I did spend three days in Dale Thorpe, to have time close to the nature, but it gave me an experience of living in my own... More

Holiday at Dalethorpe was simply beautiful. A true old English cottage that still retains all it's charm and grace. The property looks as beautiful as in the photographs. The hosts are extremely warm and very eager to assist the guests through out the day. We stayed in a suite that consists of a bedroom, a small lounge and a spacious... More
