The
Last Resort - Hosapatna, Coorg District The house is set in a certified organic farm surrounded by coffee and pepper and with paddy fields stretching to the Cauvery. It is a two bedroom cottage with a loft and two bathrooms (for those diffident about bathing in the river). The sparkling white walls and two level roof make it easy to find and, of course, it is the last house on the right on the village road of
Hospatna. Across the paddies and the river is the Dubare Wildlife Reserve with its creaking bamboo groves.
Hosapatna is 12 kms from Kushalnagar and 16 kms from Siddapur. Trekking, swimming, sight seeing are some of the activities outside the cottage. There are many interesting places around that are worth seeing. The Dubare Elephant camp is only 1 mile from the Last Resort. The orientation
program run by the Jungle Lodges starts early in the morning and costs about Rs.150 (separate rates for foreigners). Check both the ferry costs and orientation fees before getting into the ferry.The Tibetan Camp and monastery is only a five kilometres away from Kushalnagar. The cottage is perfect for a couple or two. Hot water heated in traditional brass vessel is available in one of the bathrooms on request. A ceiling fan in one of the bedrooms hangs there for those who "cannot sleep without a fan". Birds and animals to look out for... Mini-vets, drongos, woodpeckers around the house, storks, flighted swifts on the paddy fields and cormorants, brahmini kites, kingfishers on the river and jungle fowl in the forest on the opposite bank. I have seen foxes, wild dogs, porcupines and of course elephants. They come in warm weather when there is little or no water in the forest. They also come during the time of the flowering of the paddy (around December). |
