Chilipili Estate stay | Rooms in a Farm stay

Visited this homestay in December. The location is really a joy to drive towards. The homestay is built in the middle of a coffee estate and only a minute of off road drive from the main road. The rooms, common dining/parking areas are very neatly maintained & the parking area is also sufficient. They have rooms by the names of birds like hornbill, kingfisher, etc. If one wakes up during sunrise, the ears will be treated to the "chilipili" (chirping) of birds & the eyes to fog covered sights of towering trees all around. The natural colours are added mostly by the variety of flowering plants grown in the parking area other than the different shades of the coffee fruits. The hostess Mrs. Darshan Ganapathy is really polite & helpful in providing info about nearby places. She is a wildlife photographer and a few of her snaps of wild animals are up for display outside the rooms - the one with black panther was breathtaking. The food was homemade, tasty and the quantity provided for one time meal is enough for the whole day. The working staff are really punctual & make sure the food arrives on time. They have option of paid bonfire as well. There are 3 friendly dogs guarding the homestay. The walk in the coffee plantation was relaxing. Would definitely revisit during the monsoon to witness it in all its glory. Overall it was the being-one-with-nature experience that our polluted minds crave for every once in a while.

Being a resident of bangalore, coorg is one of the destinations i find myself visiting most frequently. Over the years, i have had the opportunity to stay at many resorts, homestays and Chilipili Estate stay | Rooms in a Farm stays. However, since my first stay at chilipili estate back in jun e 2024, i have not stayed anywhere else in coorg but here and most probably will continue to do so. This estate stay is just breathtakingly beautiful. Set amid-st a coffee plantation and canopied by large trees, not to mention the countless flowers that adorn this place. The rooms are beautiful, spacious and neat and clean, and with a great view too. As explained by our host ms. Darshan, and her daughter kavin - 'chilipili' - in kannda, means the chirping for birds. And boy does this place live upto its name! we were lucky enough to spot many species of birds like the greater racquet tailed drongo, leaf birds, woodpeckers, parakeets, barbets and of course - hornbills! ms. Darshan is a wildlife photographer herself and her captured photographs adorn the rooms of the stay. The food is plentiful in quantity and absolutely delicious. All in all, i think this is the best homestay i have stayed in, period. I can wholeheartedly recommend this place to anyone who wants to take a break from the hustle and bustle of city life and connect deeply with nature.

Our stay at chilipili estate was definitely one of the best, if not the best ever experience in terms of stay, food, ambience and hospitality. The property itself absolutely lives upto it's name "chilipili" which means "chirping of birds" in kannada. Our hosts, darshan and her daughter kavin warmly welcomed us and walked us through the really offbeat experiences that coorg has to offer. The rooms were neat and well maintained. The food was simply delicious. Sumptuous kodava cuisine. For anyone seeking a calm, serene but warm getaway from the hustle and bustle of city life, chilipili is the place to go!

I was looking for a pet-friendly place and this one ticks all the boxes. The food was delicious and the quantity offered was too much😀 though there is a well-laid road but Google has shown me the shortest route which was pathetic and terrible to drive. It's away from city live and one has to go 7-8Kms to get anything but you to have everything there to sit and enjoy nature. this is the best place for those looking for a staycation

I have spend 2 nights there with my family the place is so good that we planed ro stay at the place itself rather than going out on the 2nd day evening. I felt so connected to nature n peace. If u want a chilling experience with peace then chilipili is the place for u the food was also very good n fresh i m in love with the place and i am going to visit soon

We really enjoyed the Stay. The location was tranquil and graceful and located near to the main City. They accommodated everything very nicely. Hospitality was really awesome. The owner was responsible and friendly. The rooms were cozy and comfortable. The food was delicious. I must recommend this to others.

The stay was awesome. A simple and peaceful place. Surrounded by coffee estate, the place is spectacular. A special shout out to the host, darshan. Excellent lip smacking food and utter professionalism. Phone networks are weak, but was required for a digital detox. Would recommend it surely.

Peaceful location and good ambiance of the property. Staffs were helpful and friendly. Room was decent and clean with the basic necessities. But the food services were not up to the mark. I would like this property to my friends.

location is memorable, food is hygienic, saftey and standards are Providing excellent 👌

The estate is located in the midst of a coffee estate, making it a very peaceful environment. You get to see a variety of trees and plants. However there is no mobile signal at the place making it a little difficult but if you want to disconnect then yes it’s good choice.

I had a very peaceful Stay at Coorg. The location of the property was convenient. The caretaker was attentive and friendly. Facilities, cleanliness, and security were really good. The rooms were clean and comfortable. I must recommend this property to others.

What a worth this stay ! it was so peaceful and very good hospitality. The stay had very comfortable room ( cottage )

Very good place to stay, breakfast was tasty, rooms were clean and good hospitality.

The great ambiance, we enjoyed lot here and very nice place to visit with family and friends. Thank you chilipili estate 🏡

Calm and serene location. Clean accomodation. Loved their garden. Staying here was a delight!

Calm and serene place. Away from the city, you need to settle here if planning to visit this place as the road is a little interior and not great to drive.

I travel-led solo. The cottages are in between the coffee farms. Ideal for bachelors or family. I had a very peaceful stay. Owner is very friendly.

It is a good place to stay amid-st nature. It is 20 km. Away from madikeri city, and gives the feeling of dense forest.
