Baevu, The Village

About the experience

Do you ever feel the urge to leave the chaotic concrete jungle behind for a few days and experience the simple pleasures in life? With the fast-paced lifestyle and congested streets, you may often find yourself feeling burnt out by the end of a tiring week. You could use an escape into the countryside to unburden yourself of stress and worries, and spend some quality time with your loved ones. Well, you needn’t have you worry about booking travel tickets or mapping long routes when you have several options right in the outskirts of the city.    

Set on 30 acres of organic farmlands, this rustic getaway gives you the chance to take a peek into life in the quiet rural countryside. Enter a world where stress is non-existent and give yourself the chance to relax and rejuvenate without having a care in world. From the moment you set foot on this lush green farm, you’ll be enveloped in a cocoon of silence that’s only occasionally broken by the chirping of birds flying overhead. Here, you’ll get a glimpse into a life replete with ecologically conscious living – rainwater harvesting, organic farming, solar power, and biogas. 

Visitors here are accommodated in cozy cottages whose architecture is inspired by the traditional form of the local ground floor only village house called ‘Totti Mane’. Constructed from jungle timber, bamboo, and thin baked roofing tiles, these cottages offer you all the modern amenities you may need whilst also giving you the feeling of staying close to the outdoors. During your stay here, you’ll be treated to a spread of local cuisines prepared from the homes of rural Karnataka. The farm provides most of the organic ingredients that go into making each dish as mouthwatering as the last.  

Make use of the vast open spaces and work up a sweat with some fun outdoor games like football and cricket. Beat the afternoon heat with a refreshing dip in the calm azure water of the lavish outdoor pool. Besides just the green acres of the farm, the property is surrounded by dense woods and towering peaks. You can make your way up some of these rocky inclines for surreal panoramic views of sunrise or sunset. You can interact with the locals here and pick up a few new things about farming. Watch on as they tend to the farm animals and cultivate fresh produce. Tractor and bullock cart rides are some popular entertainers for the young ones in the family.  

Make the most of your weekend here at this rustic escape into the countryside!
