When
you step into the portals of Orange County, Coorg, you leave one world
behind, and step seamlessly into another: the bygone era of the
Gentleman Planter, ensconced in the cocooned comforts of a lush
plantation paradise, perfumed with the subtly intoxicating aroma of
coffee and spice.
Bordered by the legendary river Cauvery,
and surrounded by virginal forests, this 300 acre working plantation
resort perched at a height of 800m, gives you the most luxurious
introduction yet, into the deepest secrets of this mystic mountain.
Come, allow the spirit of the land to infuse your very being, and coax
you gently on a personal voyage of discovery.
Accommodation
Coffee, Spice, and Plantation life. What better way to truly enjoy the
'Orange County Experience' than by letting oneself go in the sinfully
luxurious Plantation Style Cottages and Kodava styled Private Pool
Villas spread in delightful clusters around the 300 acre working estate.
While the cottages offer you a glimpse into the privileged life of the
gentleman planter, the private pool villas are inspired by ethnic Kodava
architecture and offer the ultimate in luxurious seclusion.
Whichever category of accommodation you choose, you can rest assured
that no expense nor effort has been spared to provide the finest lodging
experience in the world.

Dininng
Soul food finds body and spirit to seduce your palate in three awesome
temples to the culinary arts. For starters, we discover the way to a
man's heart is through the portals of the generously stocked Granary, an indulgent ode to the good life as lived by
the gentleman planters of a bygone era. Thrift and moderation are words
conspicuous by their absence and this restaurant is all about abundance,
be it the gourmet continental spread or the Indian repast, with a strong
Kodava flavor finding expression in the signature Pandi Curry
(spiced curried pork) and other gems from the ethnic melting pot.
The Peppercorn, a speciality restaurant, pays
homage to the humble Kebabs and Grills, and serves up unlimited platters
of their finest specimens in a serene setting overlooking the private
lake.
Fine dining for vegetarians comes of age in the Plantain
Leaf, which is set amidst verdant coffee and spice
plantations and serves an array of North and South Indian vegetarian
delicacies.
Pools
Take the plunge into our Communal Swimming Pool that beckons you with
its clear azure waters in a scenic location. The pool is ideal to laze
around in with your family, as it also has special child-safe zones so
you can take a lap or two without worrying about your toddler.
Or, if you'd prefer a child-free zone to commune privately with your
significant other half, or contemplate the ways of the universe in a
serene setting, sneak away to the exclusive Infinity Pool that borders
the plantation and the Dubare Reserve Forest.
Coffee Lounge
A lounge on stilts, overlooking lush paddy fields and the coffee and
spice plantation, this is one of the delicious ironies of a holiday
here. A setting so serene, it'll lull you to sleep. Yet, irrigated by
endless cups of the house brand, Sidapur, your
senses will be fully awakened and alive to the endless possibilities
here. The best way to deal with it is to pick up one of the coffee table
books from our library, order a cappuccino, spread out on your favourite
chair, and alternate between periods of active observation and restful
bliss.
Vaidyasala
Experience rebirth at the Vaidyasala, our
ayurvedic spa that harnesses the ancient secrets of the world's oldest
healing system, to rejuvenate, regenerate and revitalize you. With
expert masseurs and masseuses to infuse your body with new vigour. And
experienced physicians to prescribe a customized regimen to suit your
constitution. With herbal baths, delicious natural diets, oil
treatments, age retardation therapies...all amidst a soothing, tranquil
natural environment that promotes wellness of body, mind and spirit.

activities, themed around Coorg’s unique geography and culture, that are
