A perfect weekend getaway at "Bamboo Loft" Coorg, Karnataka

Bamboo Loft, Coorg

Far away from the madding crowd is this perfect home stay in Coorg. If you wish to get away from the hustle and bustle of the city, this home stay is perfect.

Besides the experience of staying in the middle of a coffee plantation, the area is so serene, sylvan, and beautiful that you just feel good being there. You can enjoy a nice walk around the plantation. If you like bird watching be sure to carry your binoculars. River Cauvery flows right next to the coffee plantation. This place has everything you need for a quiet getaway!

How to reach Kushal Nagar:

From Bengaluru it will take you around 4-5 hours by road (and around 2 hours from Mysore).
Once you reach Kushal Nagar, "Bamboo Loft"  is 1/2 an hour's drive away. It is inside a coffee plantation "Ashish Estate".

Try to reach there latest by 5-7 pm because later in the night you may have trouble locating the place and you won't find too many locals who can guide you to the place if you reach very late.
