Homestay in Coorg

The warm, rich aroma of coffee and the peppery whiff of spices soak the air of Coorg in an aura of dewy beauty as a chain of white, grey and black clouds race across the sky, and below the green bathe the Western Ghats as far as the beholder’s eyes can see. The splendour of Coorg or Kodagu in Karnataka, called the Scotland of India, is exquisite in its natural magnificence and its gallant history of ethnic Kodava and Arabasha warriors, fighting for their beloved land with blood and flesh. As paddy fields dazzle in the sun, and the verdant hills of the Western Ghats bloom in the mixed fragrance of Coorg’s honey and vinegar, the town of Coorg emerges in a mesmeric, breath-taking beauty.

Coorg has unbelievable beauty, history and adventure to offer to tourists, but just as it is inexpedient to explore the real India in a car, you cannot get the true essence of Coorg’s natural elegance in a high budget hotel. To experience Coorg, you need to live amidst its gorgeous valleys and paddy fields, beside the source of the sacred Kaveri River, where the roar of the Abbey Falls wakes you up in the morning and the exotic aroma of coffee berries nurturing under the shade of cardamom or cinnamon, will instantly shake off sleep. And the best way to do that is holiday in a homestay.

With Fun Stay as the ultimate source of reviewing, comparing and booking homestays across India, you do not need to worry. Log in to www.funstay.in to find a wide range of homes for every budget to plan your stay in, you can easily choose a homestay that suits your needs and makes your stay unforgettable. Whether you want a room with a balcony overlooking the swiftly flowing Kaveri River, or you want to stay in the nadir or on the zenith of a valley with green hills rising around you, whether you want to stay in the midst of a lush forest, with foliage as the canopy of your veranda, or you want a place where you can play golf as fertile coffee and cinnamon plantations spread out from the edge of your yard, Fun Stay has all of these.

Homestay in Coorg

“And this is exactly why we drag you along , in every trip of ours..” my  mom started .   As  right as she was , at that moment   my mind wandered  through the lush  green cover that surrounded  us from all sides , as we spiralled  upwards the Western ghats.  Coorg  doesn’t fall in the regular tourist’s travel  itinerary ,  and I simply cannot imagine why.

Its  a true-blue traveller’s  paradise with something that caters to every  kinds of tourists and travelers , be it  a zillion  trek routes with resplendent waterfalls and  forests, wildlife sanctuaries  , forest camps  to a plethora   of temples,  churches , mosque, monastery for the  ones seeking spiritual   relevance.  City slickers   looking for a quick getaway   can  easily reach the distict headquarters of Coorg( otherwise known as Kodagu) , Madikeri which   is 255kms from Bangalore , can be reached by Air ( 135km  from Mangalore), rail (nearest station Mysore 120km).

Once you reach Madikeri,  its better to  handpick  the trek routes  which are on offer.Located 35kms from Madikeri , is the second highest peak of Karnataka, Thadiandamol. Bit  tough  for  even the seasoned trekkers , once you reach the   top , just soak in the  scintillating scenics, catch your  breath,  head to the Nalaknad  palace through the  serpentine  path, where they maintain a bee population. The Pushpagiri  trek  takes  you atop Kumara Parvatha  amidst  dense forests.
