The Lodge, Coorg - A Heritage Home Stay launched in Nov 2010
It is less than a 5 hr drive from Bangalore
Welcome to The Lodge, a heritage Coorg home built in 1898 which will
pamper you the way it has done for generations. The Lodge is situated in
Madikeri, the district Headquarters of Kodagu, the land of hills and rivers
and plantations.
Since our home is in the town itself, when you stay with us, you can explore
Madikeri on foot. Raja Seat, Omkareshwar temple, the Fort and the market
place are all within a two km radius.
The Lodge has been home to the Kademada Belliappa family for three
generations and the Heritage home has been lovingly restored by Arjun and
his wife Smita (the 3rd generation) with great care under the expert
guidance of conservation architects from Intach and Adhaar . We have
endeavoured to retain the original lustre of the home with its beautiful rose
and teakwood ceilings and numerous skylights.
