The Snuggery at the Windamere
The Snuggery appeals to people who need to remain in touch with
modern life, even while they indulge their love of the past and old things. The
residential houses in this wing, Annandale House, and Observatory
House, are provided with TVs and telephones.
The bathrooms have fittings which were once the property of the Loreto Convent
Girls School. These were donated to Windamere Hotel when the Convent
closed down its boarding school after 130 memorable years. The
Convent is the oldest European school in Darjeeling District, having been founded
in 1846. It counts among its many famous former pupils, Vivien Leigh,
the actress of "Gone With The Wind" fame.
