The Landmark Trust USA invites you to tour Naulakha, the Dummerston, VT house and gardens of author Rudyard Kipling, normally open only to overnight guests. Take a self-guided tour when its spectacular rhododendrons are likely to be in bloom. Start your visit with a tour of Naulakha, where Rudyard Kipling wrote The Jungle Books and Captains Courageous (you can even sit at the desk!), then stay to enjoy the estate’s grounds at your leisure. Visit the newly rehabilitated Naulakha Stable, constructed for Kipling’s horses, Nip & Tuck, and now home to our newest overnight rental.
