Set on the periphery of a national park that is home to elephants, tigers, leopards, wild dogs, and bears, The Lake House is a comfortable homestay that sits on, you guessed it, a small lake. It’s surrounded by shrub-forested hills. Stay on this charming farm that is a birdwatcher’s heaven right outside Bangalore. There are over 150 species of birds, including the Yellow-throated bulbul and Rufous-bellied eagle.
A typical day includes waking up to the song of the birds, watching the sun rise over the lake, enjoying a sumptuous breakfast, and heading out for a jaunt around the estate. Evenings are usually starlit and shockingly unadulterated by glaring city lights. The hosts are longtime wildlife conservationists and promote the same through workshops and tours in wildlife photography for both adults and kids. They also help guests indulge in nature-based activities at their own leisure, gaining a better understanding of this tiny piece of wilderness.
comforts
The Lake House comes with four spacious double rooms. The rooms come with air conditioning and attached baths. Each room is equipped with a double sofa-cum-bed plus the option of an extra bed.
If you’d like to camp outside under the stars, you and your group can request tents that are sturdy and designed to weather strong winds and rain. They are light, water-proof and insect-proof with a portable fan and emergency light. Mattresses and bedding are provided by the hosts and what’s more? One can pitch the tents anywhere they like, depending on their mood!
