Dining
Our kitchen, supervised by the planters' wives, serves delicious and healthy local cuisine as well as North Indian, Continental and Jain fare - all with that special home-made touch!
In & Around Arabidacool
Go on a safari at the neighbouring Bhadra Tiger Reserve, trek up Mullayanagiri (the highest peak in the Baba Budan Range) and discover the architectural wonder of the 16th century temples of Belur and Halebeedu. Or simply relax with a book from our private library, throw in a game of carom or scrabble, enjoy a barbecue by the bonfire and, of course, take a guided tour of the plantation.
What to wear
Light warm clothes for the day, topped with a jacket for cold nights by the bonfire.
