About me: The Octavius Tea Retreat – One of the best
tea-tourism destinations in Dooars
A number of tea tourism destinations have come up
in the Dooars with accommodations in the tea
estates. One such tourism destination is
“The Octavius Tea Resorts†beautifully
created on the theme of tea plantation life and
reflecting the true spirit of Dooars. The
beautifully nurtured tea gardens of Octavius with
the lush green tea bushes and shade trees are a
real feast for the eyes. The itherial view of the
Kanchenjunga range of mountains from these tea
estates is mesmerizing.
The Octavius Plantation consists of the Sylee Tea
Estate and the Nya Sylee Tea Estate.
The century old well-preserved Colonial Tea
Bungalows of the British era in each of these
estates have been transformed into to a
tea-retreat with much love, sensitivity and
devotion ensuring that heritage has been preserved
and history has been kept alive. However, to keep
to our everyday requirements and desired comforts,
the bungalows have been renovated with modern
amenities.
