A quiet hilltop homestay in Chikmagalur: no crowds, no polish, just the hills
This is not a resort. Instead, it is a plain home on a hill, surrounded by coffee plantation, with no one around but birds. Here is what to expect.
Hills, birds and nobody else
Plantation surrounds the house on all four sides, so there are no neighbours. As a result, you will feel like you have the whole hill to yourself, with birdsong from morning to dusk.
Switch off, slow down
Come for a digital detox. Put the phone away, then let the days follow the light. We do have Wi-Fi if you really need it, but nothing here asks for your attention.
Not renovated, on purpose
We have not renovated or modernised the house. Instead, it is kept as it has always been, a lived-in family home, not a styled-up property.
Feel local, not commercial
There is no resort-style gloss and there are no packaged experiences. Instead, you get a simple village and plantation stay, the way people here actually live.
Real quiet, far from the road
We are deep inside the hills, away from main roads and crowds. Because the nearest restaurant is 4 km down the hill, evenings are slow and unhurried.
What you see is what you get
Simple comforts, honestly described. If you want luxury, this is not the place. However, if you want to feel far from the city, it is.
You are staying inside an ecosystem
The homestay sits high on the hills, with a small pond near the main gate and a hilltop right in front of the balcony. Nature here is not a day trip. Instead, it is all around you, day and night. See our experiences.
Wildlife sightings near the pond
Animals such as bison, deer and wild boar are sometimes seen near the pond by the main gate after dark. However, sightings are natural and never guaranteed. So please watch from a safe distance and do not disturb or feed the animals.
A sky full of stars
With no city lights for miles, the night sky on the hills is dark and clear. So step outside after dinner and look up at the stars.
A hilltop from your balcony
One of the hilltops is very close by and can be seen from the balcony. Therefore, you can have your morning tea with that view in front of you.
Why guests choose our coffee estate stay
Evenings by the Bonfire
The bonfire is free for our guests. So end the day outdoors, with the hills dark around you and the sounds of the plantation for company.
Embrace Nature’s Symphony
Wake up to the crisp mountain air and panoramic views of lush greenery. Also, the retreat is secluded, deep in the hills.
Trekking Haven
Explore the undulating terrain, discover hidden trails, and conquer the peaks adorning the horizon. For treks and waterfalls, see our places around.
Nature’s Lullaby
Escape the cacophony of the city. Instead, the only sounds are the rustle of leaves, the gurgle of our water pond, and the calls of birds and the forest.
From Home to Homestay
Our homestay is a labor of love, transforming a humble home into a welcoming haven for travelers. Also, you will find the essence of homemade comfort in every corner. Read about us.
Serenading Bird Chirps
A myriad of birds adorn the trees around us. Therefore, their melodious chirps make your stay a harmonious blend of tranquility and vibrant life.
