We had to book here in an urgency since we had to our earlier booking at a different place at the last minute. We looked at TripAdvisor reviews and decided this place may be worth it though we could stay only for one night as he had other bookings. The only downside of the place is it is about 45 km from madikeri and takes an hour or so to reach. But the hosts are extremely cordial and helpful.Mr. Dilip was kind enough to take us a on a very informative tour on his plantation . Next day morning he took us to the top of the Kabbe hill. The hospitality is of a different order altogether . The jaggery coffee is one of the best things I have tasted in Coorg and there was no dearth of it. The food is truly exquisite and we really enjoyed both the dinner and the breakfast. The…
We chose this place for a get together / offsite with few of our colleagues, and also as a farewell to one of our colleagues moving on. Let me first comment on the location and the access. I was having an apprehension of being this property away from SH91 (State Highway), but realised that the 3 km distance from the intersection to the home was a smooth road, and an experience to drive. Once we reached our destination, we felt the drive was worth it. This place is nicely tucked away from the hustle and in a quiet location on the mountain side with lots of massive trees. There are 4 main rooms which are part of 2 cottages, and these are outside the main home where Dilip (our host) and his family is living. Rooms are very well maintained. Few rooms has a small attic with a bed,…
This is one of the most beautiful places I have stayed in! Dilip and Vidya are the perfect hosts, the surroundings are stunning, and the food is awesome!! While leaving, I told Vidya that coming to Kabbe was like visiting my mother's home--filled with comfort and warmth and love. I have no doubt that I will be visiting again. This is a place that settles down in a corner of your heart and beckons you again and again.
We had a very pleasant stay at Kabbe. It’s the last estate before you reach stunning nature, by walking 30 minutes you reach the hilltops where you get the view of Kerala’s and Karnataka's mountains. We spent a weekend at Kabbe and it was an amazing get-away from the city. Very nice hosts and great food! Good variation of Indian dishes and the best dosas we’ve eaten, and we’ve tried many. We also learned a lot about coffee cultivation and production. Really recommend it!
I cant overstate how wonderful this home-stay is. Kabbe's quaint immaculate garden-fringed cottages are nestled in a lush forested coffee plantation offering amazing hill views, with a steady gentle background score that mixes silence, the murmur of the Chelavara falls and birdsong. It's a fantastic place to unwind, disconnect, rejuvenate and reconnect. What makes it a perfect getaway is the exceptional family who host you. Dilip and Vidya are amazing people, who are warm, affable, accommodating and wonderfully witty. They will ply you with heartwarming local cuisine, regale you with tales of the Coorg way of life and take care of you like old friends come to stay. They offer guided walks of the plantation and can suggest great outings in the Coorg hills. Have the fireplace or…
