A family home on a hill, kept just as it is

Our story
Our homestay is a labour of love. We took a humble family home on the hill and opened it to travellers, without turning it into something it is not. The house is kept as it has always been, and that is exactly why guests say it feels like home.
We live among the coffee estates, the birds and the wildlife that visit our pond. We wanted visitors to see the hills the way we do: quiet, green and unhurried. It is a simple nature stay in Karnataka for people who want to slow down.
What makes us different
Secluded by nature
No neighbours, with plantation all around. You can spend the day watching birds and the evening watching the hills go dark.
Wildlife at our pond
At night, animals such as bison, deer and wild boar visit the pond near the main gate. The place is safe, and you can watch from your stay.
Stars and a hilltop
With no city lights nearby, the night sky is clear. A hilltop is very close and can be seen from the balcony.
Not renovated, not commercial
A simple, honest stay with local character. We do not offer resort-style or luxury facilities, and we say so before you book.
Who it is for
It suits nature lovers, families, couples, groups of friends and teams who want to slow down and disconnect from city life. It also suits runners and crews visiting for the Malnad Ultra, with the start only 4 km away.
If you want luxury hotel comforts, this is not the right place. If you want a quiet home in the hills, with a warm host and honest prices, you will feel at home with us.
How we host
Your host speaks Kannada and English, and can manage basic Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam and Hindi. We confirm bookings directly by call or WhatsApp, and the price agreed before you pay the advance is final.
