Bacon Sloppy Joes
Recipe by Shelby Jo
A recipe from the Everyday With Rachael Ray magazine. I have made it quite often and love it more every time!
Top Review by Domestic Goddess
Made the sloppy joes for today's lunch, and while they were very good, I found them to also be rather rich in taste. I had cooked up 5 strips of bacon in the skillet, placed the bacon on paper towels to drain, then tore into small pieces. I did sauté the celery and onions in the bacon grease for just a few minutes, before adding the ground beef and browning it 3/4's of the way, then added the garlic which I had minced. Finished browning out the meat, mixed together the Worcestershire sauce and ketchup, then added that to the browned meat. Brought to a boil, then lowered the heat to a simmer, and simmered (uncovered) for 8 minutes. They were delish! I did want to mention, I didn't have any red peppers to add, but the sloppy joes still tasted great, and I had used 75% lean ground beef, but cooked 1-1/4 lbs. of meat, which I had drained thoroughly before making the sloppy joes. Plan on making again, and still using 5 strips of bacon, as I thought the 5 strips gave the sloppy joes a nice bacon flavor. Shelby Jo, thank you for sharing this recipe. This recipe is definitely a keeper!

Went on a third date with a guy Friday night. He told me he "kind of" likes me, as he didn't want to come on too strong.
I replied the same.
After he walked me to my car, we made out, and he whispered a few times, I like you. And I said it back.
We exchanged a few msg's back and forth on Saturday. He said we should do it again some time. And I said, "Yes, for sure because I kind of like you too ;)".
He commented back on "kind of", joking that it offended me Friday when he said that. And I said, No, I was just teasing... kind of fits for now.
And he hasn't written back since? We usually talk everyday. I should also mention he had a bad headache Friday and is still recovering.
Most Helpful Guy
Personally i would not be offended, especially if i'd said it too.
To me it would just come across as playful, especially with the wink.
A headache shouldn't really stop him texting so maybe there's another reason.
Anyway, at the end of the day, he said he likes you, and he's like to do it again sometimes, so if you like him then text him. You don't have to wait for him.
Hope it works out :)00|00|0
Thank you... but to clarify, did I offend him when I added "'kind of' fits for now"... cause that was the last thing I said, and he hasn't replied to that. Thanks
I would say no as it definitely wouldn't offend me, and even if it did, It wouldn't stop me texting back.

The reservation was canceled 4 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.Ritesh2015-03-02T00:00:00Z
This villa is a fabulous option if you are looking for a weekend getaway or hosting some friends and family for a few days. The villa is taken care of beautifully and you have all the amenities you could ask for. I had a wonderful time and would highly recommend this option to all - there's also a beautiful swimming pool in the club house that you can take advantage of as well as a cafe if you want to order in food. Uttam was nice and took care of all our needs!Surabhi2016-05-02T00:00:00Z
House - Extremely spacious, clean, well maintained with a decently equipped kitchen. The villa has 4 rooms as listed however none of these rooms had blankets. Also, there was no drinking water in the villa, so you may want to make your own arrangements. Neighborhood - Banyan Tree Retreat is sort of a gated community with 300+ villa's, a golf course and club house (MAK Resort). The neighborhood is extremely quite and calm. So if you're booking a place to relax and unwind, this is a perfect listing for you. However, if you're planning for a house party (like i did), you may want to think again. Listing - The house was just as described but the rooms didn't have any blankets. As per the listing the club resort has a pool, gym and other indoor/outdoor activities however you can't access them without paying the MAK resort management. We ended up paying 800 (per person) to get access to the club house (1 meal included). The management did't give us an option to just access the indoor and outdoor facilities without including a meal. Host - Uttam Reddy was really quick to respond to all our queries.Mohit2015-08-30T00:00:00Z
It was great experience staying away from the city. Place is very calm and neat. We had a great time.gowtham2016-10-02T00:00:00Z
This is great place for a get together with both family and friends. The villa is amazing and spacious for a lot of people to stay. We were about 18 people during the weekend and such a wonderful gesture by the host to arrange everything hassle free. Great food in the club house. Awesomely spacious rooms and great washrooms and highly neat place. You can have a great time as a weekend get away from the boring city. Thank you.Vasundhara2016-12-05T00:00:00Z
This was our first family trip to India since coming to the US back in '71 so where we stayed was very important to me. Uttam was wonderful to work with ever since our first conversation. He was an excellent host and the staff at Banyan Tree Villas were very accommodating to all of our needs throughout our stay. I could not have asked for a more quiet, peaceful, clean, secure, and mosquito free home for my elderly mother and brother to relax in. The clubhouse is beautiful with every amenity you can think of. It has free WIFI and I worked there without any interference. There was a 2 day science conference taking place during our stay and even during that time, the staff at the club house was very attentive to our needs. The location is ideal from airport and a short distance yet far enough from the hectic pace of the inner city. I would recommend this place to anyone looking to plan a meeting/conference, wedding, or just see the sights of Hyderabad. This community has it all!Jude2016-01-28T00:00:00Z
We were a group of 9 and wanted a place to unwind. We wanted a place close to the city and for a day. One of the best options we had was this villa. Nestled in a gated community 50 kilometers from Hitec-City, the villa and the surroundings were great. The villa was close to the club house and surrounded by greenery. It was a great place to relax. Our host, Uttam was easily available over a phone call. He made sure the place was ready for us to settle in for the evening. We brought our own barbecue pit and had a nice cookout late in the evening. We had a covered gazebo to shield us from the non stop rain. The villa was beautiful. Very minimalist in design and decor, it was welcoming. Since it was raining all day, we had a minor trouble keeping the floor dry. We had a stove and gas to cook food, although we didn't need it. The microwave and refrigerator were an added advantage. We had enough room for all of us to crash in at night. 4 bedrooms and each could sleep 2 easily and we had extra mattresses (we didn't need them though). It was a great experience and definitely worth the value.Abhilash2016-09-24T00:00:00Z
This is a great place to spend some time with family or a bunch of friends away from the chaos of the city. Access to facilities and restaurant at the resort don't make you want anything more. Uttam and Aditya were great hosts who were always accessible and ensured we had absolutely no inconvenience. Thank you very much, highly recommend and will certainly come back!Ankit2016-12-18T00:00:00Z

We absolutely loved the house. It has a quaint charm that reminds you of all things that are old and beautiful. It was spotless.With an amazing view and Sanjay' constant stream of coffee, couldn't have asked for more. Our first cycling trip definitely owes one to Tanglewoods :)Ashwathi2017-02-26T00:00:00Z
A space located only a few minutes away from madikeri with an absolutely amazing view! Incredibly spacious with great spots around the house to relax and enjoy the view. Sanjay was is very gentle and caring and really made me feel comfortable and welcome. Great service and even offered me a ride back into the city when I was checking out.Edward2016-12-02T00:00:00Z
My dad and his friend from overseas spent three days at Tanglewoods. They absolutely loved their stay and only a part of that was due to the amazing location of the house. The people behind it made the difference. The rooms were fantastic and very well maintained. The view of course is better than the more well known places :). A special word for Sanjay the caretaker and his family. As a family they took care of them and they are touched by their sincerity. After all this, I can't wait for the time that I make the trip myself.Aditya2016-02-06T00:00:00Z
Was a great place to stay right under the Raja's seat with more beautiful and serene atmosphere. The home was tastefully done with a room which just opens to the hills down. The service was awesome and credit to the team there. A real lovable experience for my family and will sure return back soonArun2016-05-18T00:00:00Z
Highly recommended home stay! We stayed at Tanglewoods for 3 days and 2 nights. The house is located really close to Madikeri town centre but the spot where it's located made us feel like we were far into the hills in the heart of the nature. Debbie has been a really good host. Very communicative, she ensured we were clear on the directions, phone numbers, where to go and do. She checked on us before arrival, once we got there and once we left :) The house is really nice. Large rooms and nice en-suite bathrooms in the three rooms. The rooms were uncluttered and tastefully decorated. There is a meditation/relaxation point which is a peaceful spot where you can sit/lie down looking out the incredible views the house has. My favourite place of the house was the balcony-room. Waking up and having a coffee looking out at the woods while getting the fresh morning air was bliss. There are also a dinning area were we ate breakfast and a sitting area. The house was immaculately clean - fresh linen and towels were provided. Also, in the bathrooms, there was complementary soap and little shampoos and gels. Sanjay, the caretaker, was lovely. His food is amazing! Mmmm aloo dosa... :) He is very helpful and always available. He recommended places to see and eat. He has a really cute kid full of happiness. If the power goes, which in India is likely and expected, there is a generator. Really helpful to keep the fans going!! Debbie and Sanjay both made us feel at home in the lovely house in the hills and we're thankful for that.Natalia2016-03-17T00:00:00Z
I must say that the stay at tanglewood was absolutely a blissful experience. The description is pretty much accurate. From the start Debbie was really helpful in answering most of the questions we had prior booking. Tanglewood is a very nice place in a beautiful location. It's at heart of Madikeri and close to many restaurants and other places. I must mention about the caretaker Sanjay. He is very helpful and can converse in Hindi, English and Kannada. The food served was clean, tasty vegan food. Sanjay gave us good recommendations about restaurants and he came all the way along with us to help us shop good Coorg spices and coffee. I highly recommend this place if you like a calm and pleasant stay.Vasudev 2016-07-10T00:00:00Z

It was a very calm and beautiful place. Had a great stay :)Vivekananda2016-09-13T00:00:00Z
The apartment was very spacious and felt very comfortable. It was a very quiet area which is great when you're staying in a city. The pool was very cold and we hadn't considered that it would be unheated so was too chilly to stay in for very long! Aside from this it was such a wonderful stay and Srivalli was very kind and helpful. I would definitely stay here again and recommend other couples who are visiting Bangalore.Anna2016-06-13T00:00:00Z
Great location, very quite and we had our own space and really had some quality time. Absolutely great place with a private pool added to the overall experience.Frank2016-07-26T00:00:00Z
Very aptly described, nice and cosy place in a peaceful neighborhood with an awesome private pool. House was quite spacious, with a lot of natural lighting. It was well maintained and all amenities were provided. Srivalli was a wonderful host who made all the arrangements and provided all the information, in detail, a day before arrival. Found the place to be exactly as described. The private pool and teak swing were the icing on the cake. Would definitely like to stay here again.Shallabh2016-09-01T00:00:00Z
Nice and cosy place, not too far of a walking distance from main markets, and great hospitality.Blair2017-01-31T00:00:00Z
The place was conform to the description, a lovely central place who look like a beach house. Quiet, clean and neutral decoration, with a beautiful pool (unfortunately weather was too cold for us to use it). The only thing missing is a sink inside the house for the kitchen (even if there is one outside). We haven't met Srivalli, only talk by what apps, and she was helpful with the direction. His father also enquiry by text in the middle of the stay to ensure everything was ok… I'll definitely book again this place for my next work trip in Blr.Lala2016-03-04T00:00:00Z
Best place to stay in bangalore if you want nice room along with private pool... I stayed for 2 days and I have spent a very good get together time with my friends. I like the ambience and pool. Room are very good. It was one of most memorable stay in Bangalore. Host is very helpful and kind. Looking forward for the next stay.Mayank2016-06-27T00:00:00Z
The place is exactly how you see in the pictures. Check in was pretty smooth. You have a pretty much private pool. Even though an AC is not required, would really love to see a ceiling fan.Nabeel2017-05-14T00:00:00Z

Great getaway place. Every thing here is amazing. The hosts, the location, the fact that it is literally an elephant's trail and the food. We were vegetarians and throughly enjoyed every meal. Sannu uncle is an awesome host to have, he was so helpful with all the queries and concerns we had. Would love to visit again with family and would also recommend this to my friends. 10/10 this place is solid getaway nest.Sagar2016-12-24T00:00:00Z
My husband and I made our first trip to Coorg. We had a great time at Rachita's place. The room was clean and comfortable. The hosts were extremely friendly and hospitable. They were so kind and wonderful, it didn't feel like we were meeting them for the first time. The location was beautiful. The food was great. We were also given a tour of the plantation which we really enjoyed. The dogs and the cats made our trip even more memorable. Would love to come back here on our next trip!Shruti2017-02-27T00:00:00Z
My family and I had a very pleasant stay at the Elephant's trail. A relaxed setting within the coffee estate. A good location, away from the rest of the hotels and crowd... But which means you need to have your own transport. Rachita and her father were good hosts. Also managed to hear the elephant's being chased away at night with fire crackers.Vijay2017-05-06T00:00:00Z
Its a beautiful place, secluded and surrounded with greenery. The rooms are clean, spacious and well maintained. The hospitality showered by the hosts is unforgettable and the food is just awesome!!! If you are a dog lover you get some extra love showered by their labs who are simply adorable :) Totally worth the money spent.Vineeta2017-01-15T00:00:00Z
I was here with my family in the 1st week of October, 2016 with my family. Stayed for 2 nights. The location is very cozy and a perfect place to escape from the urban world. The place is provided with all the amenities as described. Rachita's dad hosted us during our stay and was making sure that our stay was comfortable throughout. Hakim, the care taker was always at your service. The things I would carry in my memories throughout are: - The food, excellent & delicious food, thanks a ton to Hakim's wife for that. - To uncle, for giving herbal treatment to my elder son, who was suffering from severe cold & cough. - The hospitality and the location, both were surprisingly amazing. I will surely visit this place again. Thanks to Rachita, Uncle and Hakim for hosting us.Raja2016-10-06T00:00:00Z
We stayed here for one day and we only wished we could stay here for longer. The place is clean and tidy. It was a true nature calling experience... We had a good time relaxing and eating authentic coorg style cuisine. The hosts were extremely welcoming and cooperative. They took us around the estate and explained everything....they also got us hand plucked fresh fruits from their plantation. It was the first time we ate such fresh fruits. They even let us take their dogs for a walk. A special mention to the cooks who made really yummy food and fresh juices for us. Would definitely recommend this place without second thoughts.Krithika2016-09-22T00:00:00Z
Had a great time with my family and pet. The place is beautiful, refreshing and away from the humdrum of life. Must recommended for all those who want to take a couple of days off and bask in the glory of nature. Amazing in house food cooked and great coffee!Shaon 2017-01-29T00:00:00Z
This is THE place to be in if you're on your Coorg trip. The location is perfect for a chilled out weekend. The hosts are friendly, cordial and make you feel completely at home! Ask them for anything and they were happy to help. Another thing worth appreciating is the food. It is yum yum and yum. We also befriended their 3 dogs and 5 cats!

My girlfriend and I stayed over for a weekend. It was a lovely experience. The place is centrally located and very convenient. The house is very beautiful and extreemely well maintained. Everyone was warm and welcoming. The hosts as well as the caretakers were very helpful and made sure that we had a good stay. The restaurant upstairs served delicious food. We never got to try the spa but it looked very inviting. All in all, our stay was all we could have asked for and more. We will definitely visit again.Kirsten2013-12-08T00:00:00Z

Highly recommended!! Clean, comfortable, great breakfast, fantastic restaurant ('Infinitea') within 2 minutes walk. The host (Indira) is so helpful and hospitable, and there's a bonus: She is very very inspiring! Go ahead and have a chat with her about her work, charity, and world views. In short, this was a perfect stay. Thank you, Indira! YotamYotam2013-10-08T00:00:00Z

A heart-warming home-from-home experience! Indira was genuine and welcoming. Her home is stunning and the guest room tastefully decorated with THE most comfortable bed. Anjum organised a pick up for me at the airport and checked in regularly to see I had all I needed. Jyoti cooked amazing meals each morning. The breakfasts were always sumptuous and on time. A day trip to Mysore organised by Anjum and Nandini provided an excellent experience. I felt really comfortable at Indira's place and will definitely be back on my next trip to India.Salma2014-02-04T00:00:00Z

The place is far more than what you think it would be in terms of comfort and landscape. Especially the food. People helping with your stay are very kind and the place becomes a scenery during rains. Very good spot if you wanna actually live your childhood dream, a cottage of your own with a companion, in the woods, with animals and a river nearby. Regarding communication use keywords if you cannot speak any south Indian language, people helping you there will understand perfectly!Ankit2017-01-29T00:00:00Z
The place was serene,well-maintained.The food was good too.The only problem was that the care taker doesnt know hindi or (URL HIDDEN) there was some communication problem. But Hive was patient enough to convey our messages through phone. I would suggest this place if you are looking for a calm getaway.Suhas2016-12-27T00:00:00Z

George's Robusta is one of the best home stays I have ever stayed at. Located in the lap of nature,the place is surrounded be awe inspiring and picturesque scenery. The place was very well managed and had all the required utilities. The caretakers were very sweet and the delicious home cooked food was a plus. I would definitely recommend this place to everyone visiting Wayanad.Khushbu2016-09-06T00:00:00Z
A decent place tucked away in the wilderness. Far from the madding crowd.Robin2017-03-12T00:00:00Z
We enjoyed our stay - got a glimpse of peaceful village life away from all the hush-hush. The cottages are beautiful and the gardens around them are superbly maintained. Caretakers were very helpful and friendly. Food can be much better - what we got was below average food at fairly high prices. We ended up cooking ourselves. I would suggest to go for just stay and do the cooking yourself. Basic groceries are available in the village shops.Ankur2017-04-15T00:00:00Z

KC and Grace were fabulous hosts! Right from the initial booking process when we requested for flexibility in when we landed till the minute we left. Their home was called the Oasis by previous guests and rightly so! Albeit being right in the middle of hustle and bustle it genuinely was a garden paradise that doesn't make you feel like stepping out. We loved the little conversations we had with both of them and the cuddling their dog DJ provided. The house is also easily accessible by taxis and is right off a busy road where we saw a number of autos. All in all a great hassle-free stay, beautiful house and warm and friendly hosts. A big shout out to the helpers who kept checking in if we wanted something.nagammai2015-12-10T00:00:00Z
KC and Grace have a beautiful home filled with art. The room we stayed in was very well equipped and had a little private sit-out that leads out into their lovely garden. KC and Grace are really very warm and welcoming hosts and made us feel right at home. They are very accomplished and told us many interesting stories about their travels all over the world and their fascinating art collection. All in all, I would very highly recommend staying at their place if you are ever in Bangalore! Thank you KC and Grace! :)Kalyani2017-01-01T00:00:00Z
KC & Grace are very welcoming and accommodating people. We can count on them when we need help. The house garden is also very nice, and the dishes at breakfast or dinner are delicious. I recommend !Vincent2015-05-02T00:00:00Z
KC was extremely helpful providing all information about the property and told me in great detail the facilities available. He also helped me out picking up a red wine. He's a great guy to speak to and is very responsive to texts. Absolutely recommended.Vamsi2016-03-09T00:00:00Z
Beautiful house and very nice room to stay. KC and Grace are extremely helpful and make you feel at home. Highly recommended.Prasoon2015-02-14T00:00:00Z
KC and Grace were wonderful hosts who made our chaotic first days in India so much more relaxing and amazing. They have a really beautiful house and garden which they open up to Airbnb guests. They also cook homemade delicious Indian food upon request. Everybody in the house staff was nice and helpful as well. They cleaned the bedrooms everyday and would wash and iron our clothes for a small fee. The room we slept in was quiet and spacious, had a nice bathroom attached and a small terrace right outside where we could sit and relax next to all the flowers. Guests will also have access to the living room, dining room, the garden and the roof top terrace. To sum it all up, we highly recommend Airbnb with KC and Grace. They will take really good care of you in an absolutely wonderful house.Stefan2015-02-10T00:00:00Z
We stayed with KC and Grace in 2015 and again in March 2016. If not for our hosts, our stay in 2015 might have been stressful, tiring and expensive. We were first in Bengaluru as medical tourists. KC called several times at his own expense with information that helped us make an informed decision. Thanks to him we found a good maxillofacial surgeon at a reputable hospital, and at a very reasonable cost. If there is a rating above Super Host on Airbnb, then Grace and KC deserve it! Another example of their kindness and the lengths they went through for us: my son forgot his backpack in a shopping mall the evening before we were to fly to Goa. By the time we realised where the bag was, it was too late to collect it. It was also too late to attend the dinner KC and Grace had invited us to. They graciously accepted our apologies, but Grace went through a lot of trouble to collect the bag the next morning, and even enlisted the help of their lovely and beautiful daughter to bring it with her to Goa on her holiday. Thank you Grace. We especially treasure this kindness, as I know you were going through a difficult time then as your sister was hospitalised when we were there. KC and Grace are exquisite hosts, unassuming and unpretentious, who have caring, respect for others and love for life imprinted in their DNA. They have created a beautiful, happy home. The staff, Ayesha, Mallika and Shyamala are cheerful, friendly and very efficient. DJ adds his own charm. All three en-suite rooms are bright, clean and well-appointed. The rooms and bathrooms are cleaned daily. The beds and pillows are comfortable, and linen and towels clean. The yummy Indian breakfasts are accompanied by fresh fruit and juice, and coffee or tea. We also had a few lunches and dinners, as my son had special dietary requirements after his surgery. I am surprised to read the comment of another guest who found the home-cooked meals expensive. As Indians who reside in other countries, perhaps we still expect prices to remain at the levels they were when we lived here. We had our laundry done for a nominal fee. There is free wi-fi, good reading lamps, and you can 'borrow' the daily newspaper! KC arranged a driver with a clean and comfortable car for us. So travelling in the city, shopping and sightseeing was easy. We took the opportunity for a day trip to Mysuru, which was worth it. It was a privilege to stay in this Oasis and I cannot thank Grace and KC enough for welcoming us into their home, their kindness, concern and comfort. I'm looking forward to a relaxed holiday here, listening to music, drinking wine, and enjoying KC and Grace's wonderful repertoire of stories, learning bits of recent events and history from people who have lived it. Thank you Grace and KC.Beena2016-04-02T00:00:00Z
KC and Grace are such wonderful hosts!! My husband and I with our two small children decided to rent a room in their home in Dec 2016 for two weeks, we were hesitating as its yeh first time we have used Airbnb and also we had no idea what to expect. We are considering relocating to Bangalore hence we wanted to stay in a home to help us understand how it is to actually live there rather than being in a hotel. KC and Grace have built such a gorgeous home - it's huge and full charm. The garden and plants are just outstanding and so well maintained. The house is full of art and culture and it really does not feel like you are in India! They have created a beautiful space and have a lovely set of staff that take care of everything.... KC was very kind to help organise our pick up/drop off to the airports for us as he knew we had never done this before and especially with two small kids. The driver he had was a serving police office and well trusted - it proved he was concerned about us and feeling safe. The car we used - on more than one occasion - was their own brand new station wagon (can't remember the exact name) but it's a lovely spacious 7 seater and perfect for travelling around Bangalore with the kids! The room we rented was the private room via garden - it's perfect for a be of privacy so you can enter without disturbing the rest of the house, and it had an en suite bath and shower. It was great to have the bath tub because of the kids!! The room was lovely and well presented...the breakfast each morning was very good and it was nice to have breakfast with the hosts and their other guests. We learnt a lot about Bangalore from them at the table!! My kids felt very comfy staying there and settled very well... Overall I would highly recommend families/couples etc to stay there on vacation - a lot of young business guys already rent it - but it's definitely a nice place for families and couples too. It's a bit far from the airport but everything is!!! And traffic in general is terrible! But the home is located close to many busy towns and easy access to everywhere....KC and Grace are very well respected and known in the community and that speaks volumes about them as people. They are kind and caring and that made us feel relaxed. We will definitely return!Anushka2016-12-08T00:00:00Z

The house is well connected with restaurants, beaches and malls within a 15 minute drive, but at the same time provides the peace and quiet of a holiday home. The place was fairly furnished with more than enough space for 6 people. The entire house including the bathrooms and bed linen were clean. A lady came in to clean the house and do the dishes in the morning, which was really nice.Rohit2017-01-01T00:00:00Z
Mamta and her husband are great hosts.They are always willing to help with local restaurants and shops information. Mamta was happy to talk to my cab driver due to the language barrier. The house is a bit dated and the location can seem remote especially after dark.But we did find cabs most of the time.Uber is not very dependable in Mangalore. Both Mamta and her husband were extremely hospitable. The dishes and floors were cleaned daily by a maid.Sanil2017-05-12T00:00:00Z

Mamta is a wonderful host and has a lovely house. Her home is centrally located in Mangalore and is easily accessible. She is very courteous and kind and ensures her guests are comfortable and always at ease. I highly recommend her house to travelers who plan to visit Mangalore and are looking for an affordable, quiet place to stay. Thank you for being a great host.Winetta2016-11-29T00:00:00Z
Mamata was a great host and we indeed felt like we were in a "home-stay". Everything about the place was homely, be it the maintenance, the kitchen set up, the rooms etc. The location too is central to the city and everything is easily available nearby. Would definitely visit againVinay Nikhil2017-01-27T00:00:00Z

Excellent place. Loved the food. Loved the dogs. They are center of attraction and will entertain you all day long.Vishal2017-05-23T00:00:00Z
Nachi was an excellent host. He made sure we were comfortable at the cottage and had everything we needed. His coffee plantation is beautiful and is a great place to spend a few nights in. I would highly recommend this place.Madhav2017-01-09T00:00:00Z
We were a group of 6 friends who were visiting Coorg for a few days. We stayed at Nachiappan's place for 2 nights and it was a great experience. The stay was comfortable with all basic amenities like comfortable beds, kitchen and geyser provided. He has 4 dogs and a kitten who were extremely friendly and frankly, were one of the highlights of our stay there. Nachiappan was extremely kind to help us with a bonfire each night. He also took out time to give us a trip around his estate in the morning - this was a very pleasant experience. The complimentary breakfast was great and he was also kind enough to give us a sample of the guacamole dip alongside chips which was very tasty too. He also has a space to relax and listen to songs, read books from his collection and play table tennis Unfortunately, there was no power supply for one day. However, thanks to Nachiappan, we were able to charge our electronic devices using his back-up and we were able to sleep comfortably too without the fans since it was pleasant. Most of us had VODAFONE networks and faced network issues but it was a blessing in disguise since we were not distracted by phones and were able to enjoy the cottage and its surroundings to the fullest. All in all, I fully recommend this cottage to anyone visiting Madikeri.Nikhil2017-03-16T00:00:00Z
For a young group of travellers, this place is a GO-TO. The host and his friends are extremely friendly and were ready to help us out in arranging cabs for sight seeing. The estate is extremely beautiful, during the day and night. The place is serene, filled with sounds of the nature. Overall, it's one place to go if you are looking for a proper break from city life..Aditya2016-12-18T00:00:00Z
To begin, there are 4 absolutely wonderful and friendly dogs who will make you feel more at home outside of your home than you've ever felt before. Nothing like waking up to these 4 beauties running at you first thing in the morning welcoming in the day. The estate is vast but to our luck was a little dense with undergrowth, nothing half a days work can't solve. If you are a bird enthusiast then you'll definitely enjoy sitting under the trees. I would say that there isn't a lot to do around the estate but swim in the pond and walk around amongst the flowers and the fruit trees, but it's not too far away from local landmarks and tourists hotspots so you definitely won't get bored. Nachi is a quiet host but we shared a couple of fun sunsets and dinners with great conversation. In conclusion, it's a great place for a group of friends and certainly a wonderful place if you are looking for a really simple, quiet homestay in the wilderness. We'd definitely go back again!Kristian2017-04-28T00:00:00Z
Nice calm place. The host is a very creative person . Always available for any need during our stay. The army of dogs and one cute cat was the best part of our trip. His associate Rajendran was another support and kind guide. Thanks to Nachiappan for his hosting and to let us experience his huge farm to explore the nature at its best.Pardeep2016-12-30T00:00:00Z
Nachiappan's estate in the hills is a truly unique and off the beaten path experience. The coffee and peper plantation is beautiful and definitely worth exploring for an afternoon. The estate is quite secluded, so keep in mind that you're going to have to have/hire a car to do anything. We also relied almost exclusively on the estate's maid to cook food for us- but this wasn't a problem since here cooking was amazing. It was great to have such nice home food during our stay.Katherine2017-05-05T00:00:00Z
Fantatsic choice of place to stay. Secluded environment amidst greenery. 4 beautiful dogs who accompany you all over the plantation. Both Nachi and his friend are wonderful host. Home cooked tasty food also available. A complete package..Sriram2017-05-22T00:00:00Z

Very good Hospitality. Gagan's parents received us and took care of us very well. Beautiful house with plantation and scenic view. Its a best place for staying with family/friends and value for money. Gangan's parents also helped and guided us in visiting places. Though we reached before the check in time they provided us a room to freshen up and offered coffee. Had a great experience totally.Srujana2017-05-21T00:00:00Z

Stayed here for a couple of days during the 1st week of July. Awesome weather was matched by awesome travel. But the beauty is this estate. Aloof from the main road, it is a travellers delight. Peaceful and with scenic sights, it's a stay to die for. The guesthouse itself us roomy enough and well maintained with a kitchen, fridge and lounging areas. The caretaking family have great hospitality. They are very helpful and the food is amazing. Overall, a 10/10 experience. Note: The guesthouse could have been a little more cleaner.Navjyot Singh2016-07-03T00:00:00Z
When we booked the cottage, we weren't sure what to expect but reading the reviews gave us so much confidence and rightly so! It is a beautifully simple and cosy cottage in a secluded area. Our trip was very last minute but our host, Sudhir, was kind enough to accommodate us and carefully walk us through the instructions to get there, checking in and even recommending a good place to eat on the way there! The road to the cottage can be a little difficult to drive on for beginners but we had a Honda Amaze and it was perfectly fine. Once we got there, the helper, Vishwanath took us up to a serene waterfall, where we spent a few hours just relaxing by the water. Vishwanath and his wife made us delicious meals (not spicy and super easy on the stomach) and were hospitable enough to let us see their home too. If you are inquisitive enough and/or speak the local language, there is much to be learnt from the people of Mala Village. If you want to go trekking up Kudremukh, you will need two clear days here, so make sure to plan accordingly. Overall, a great experience! Would recommend for anyone looking for some peace and quiet away from the hustle and bustle of city life & looking to reconnect with nature. Definitely coming back here.Ragini2017-03-18T00:00:00Z
Mala is not for city lovers. If you are looking for a lot of activities, loud music, and entertainment, then stay away! But if you find being in the midst of nature therapeutic, and if the sound of water gushing through the forest is music to your ears... Then come to mala. The bungalow is nestled within a lush arecanut plantation. It's your private space, ideal for a couple. But can host up to six people. The care taker vishwanath bhatt lives in the ancestral main house which is next to the bungalow. His wife and he take care of the place and cook delicious wholesome vegetarian food. Mr paramanand joshy, who owns the land and the ancestral house, met us at the town center and led us to this hidden haven. We were fortunate to have met the owner of the bnb bungalow, Mr. Sudhir Ghate, and his wife Sumana Ghate. We were treated to fantastic stories from their exceptional life. Mala is a retreat in the truest sense, and it is a place that grows on you, and you slowly settle into. Like Mr. Ghate says, if you want to 'drink and dance' don't come to mala. We couldn't agree more!Tarang2016-12-26T00:00:00Z
We came here as a group of 4 friends and enjoyed the place very much. The home boasts of strong old construction, clean and functional decor and good service from Mr. Bhat, the housekeeper at the time we visited. My only suggestion is to check all plug points before a guest's arrival as only couple of them were functional in the common area. We enjoyed the simple but good and filling meals too. Thanks Mr. Sudhir for hosting us.Radhika2016-12-31T00:00:00Z
Great place to stop for a short stay - especially if you are on a roadtrip through/around Kudremukh. Awesome environs in midst of a dense plantation, serene ambience with a gush of cricket buzz to wake up to. Place is basic utilitarian with one bed and some mattresses on floor thrown in. Helpful hosts - but dont expect any super luxurious in this truly rustic setting. Come with an open mind of experiencing deep rustic life close to nature (forest, plantation, waterfalls - esp if you are going in monsoon!Sidharth2016-07-04T00:00:00Z
The visit was very refreshing and lots of nice places within couple of hours from the property. The food was awesome and possibly best you can have outside, more so if you like traditional south Indian food. The hosts were very pleasant, taking care of your needs and constantly enquiring if you need assistance. They were more than happy to escort us to be property everytime from the nearest public road. Last couple of kilometers of the approach road is rough and cars with high ground clearance should be fine. We drove in a jazz and could manage it with challenges in few spots.Amith2017-01-30T00:00:00Z

Jyothi's parents who live at this estate hosted my guests - my sister's family and my parents. They were the most gracious hosts and made my guests welcome and feel at home. My sister has a little boy who seems to have become quite fond of them, and they, of him. They treat the guests like family and are both helpful as well as extremely caring. The estate provides you a unique chance to get away from all the hustle of the city and just slow down. If you let them know your preferences in food, they more than accommodate that and you would always find the food really hearty. Both Jyothi and her parents, on their part, take every care to ensure that the trip would be as hassle free as possible - everything from food preferences (veg. or non-veg. / allergies etc.), to weather update before you get there (it gets kinda cool in the nights certain months), to directions for getting there, to places of interest in and around the estate. My nephew had a bit of a tearful goodbye when leaving the estate and more than that, Jyothi's parents, as they had become fond of him. : ) It was a wonderful experience all in all, and I am now looking forward to going there myself to get a taste of this the next time. I whole heartedly recommend this place if you're looking for a retreat in the true sense where you can kick back and relax, go out for walks, take your day slow, eat at home, have some conversations with the hosts and explore the place, while reading books, maybe listening to some music. There was no WiFi or TV, but then again, that was part of the charm of the place and those things were not missed in the least. So, in conclusion, if this is the kind of trip you are planning then do consider this place for sure.Subhrajit2015-04-30T00:00:00Z

We stayed at SoulandEstate on the 12th and 13th of january. We were a group of 4 adults, with four under 7 year olds between us. We reached SoulandEstate (SoulandEstate is on the main road in Kushalnagar and not difficult to find at all.)around 7:00PM afer a long day, after an early morning flight to Bangalore from Hyderabad followed by a long drive with excited kids from Blore to Coorg. The house was quiet when we reached and the house owner Mr. Jayaprakash welcomed us and led us to our rooms. The rooms were large and very comfortable. The sprawling house was beautiful with an olden days charm. There was diverse flaura and fauna in and around the house.The house had an amazing verandah where we sat and spent hours singing, listening to music, the sounds of nature..the kids particularly enjoyed the big swing that was there.We were completely rejuvinated after a while. The food, oh the food! Aunty cooks food that is totally awesome and the best part is that they love feeding it to their guests! the vegetables and spices were from their own vegetable patch so it was unmatchable. We stuffed ourselves and slept soundly! One really good part about the resort is that it is close by to a lot of sightseeing points like Dubare, chiklihole dam, raja's seat, waterfalls, so no long distances. Uncle very kinldy took us for a tour of his coffee plantation and explained us many things. He opened us his entire house to us and the kids. They allowed us to cook food for the kids in their kitchen. All said, the house is beautiful, the hosts are warm, the weather is awesome and the food heavenly.Alok2017-01-14T00:00:00Z
Great place to relax on the estate. Felt very much at home. excellant home cooked food and great hostsNitin2015-11-23T00:00:00Z
Not a value for money place. Kitchen was an amenity listed for the homestay but we were not allowed to use the kitchen. We had to make them correct this. Also we were not even asked what breakfast/food we would prefer. A single option was served. We had to travel 15 km for a near-by restaurant because we didn't trust the food taste and options. I would also not recommend drinking tea which was served. The place was not very hospitable. All in all I would suggest looking for other options as the location of this place was also not very nice.Nischaiy2017-04-16T00:00:00Z
I visited Coorg in May'16 along with young kids and my parents. We found Souland Estates recommended very highly on AirBnB and Jyothi listed as a SuperHost. Reading the reviews, I sent my queries to Jyothi, who was very responsive and helped me with all the questions I had. We interacted over email and confirmed the booking. I must say that the place was exactly as I had expected-very homely with lot of warmth and hospitality. The owners, Mr. Jayaprakash, his wife and daughters-Jyothsna and Jyothi took special care of us and made sure that our stay was very comfortable. Jyothi's young niece Tejas became good friends with my kids and they were playing hide and seek within no time. To top it all, aunty went out of her way to make sure that we were served authentic Coorgi cuisine with a lot of variety. Every day dinner and breakfast were different and finger licking good. Jyothi and Mr. Jayaprakash were always around to help and provide inputs. We enjoyed the long conversations we had with the family over dinner and breakfast. This is the first time we were trying out a homestay and my experience was amazing. The place is very close to the Dubare Elephant camp and water rafting and very close to a lot of good eating joints in Kushalnagar. The coffee estate is very beautiful and with lot of greenery. After staying in a concrete jungle for a long time, this is precisely what me and my family were looking for. I would highly recommend this place in Coorg-it is a home away from home.Sankalp2016-05-20T00:00:00Z
Our hosts were fantastic. We felt at home the moment we reached the house. Mr. Jayaprakash and his family are excellent hosts. I should give a special mention for the food served to us for every meal. It was wonderful. Aunty is a great cook and she made sure that we left with happy stomachs at the end of every meal. The place and the surroundings are beautiful and peaceful. The sounds of the birds and crickets in the evenings make it so much more wonderful to be there. The rooms are huge and absolutely clean and the stay is very comfortable. Last but not the least, We had some excellent conversations with the hosts on numerous topics like politics, epics, good books. The hosts are very well read and are very loving and affectionate. If we go back to Coorg, I would definitely love to go back and stay with them.Murali2014-10-06T00:00:00Z

As a hindu custom, all auspicious things start with Lord Ganesh (usually) and on a vacation, accommodation is perhaps the most important and foremost thing. So, this abode "Ganesh" was truly an auspicious start for us. Rajeev greeted us joyfully to this apartment and we were indeed mesmerized by the facilities available. I can safely say that not many hotels/resorts can match the facilities available here, or the hospitality extended by Rajeev and his family. Rajeev as mentioned is a gracious and generous host with a keenness for details. He acted as a guide on numerous occasions and his knowledge about Gokarna & surrounding places is very helpful to a generation of internet-savy-smart-phone dependent people. Any more words to appreciate Rajeeev and the apartment would still not do the justice. Rajeev, thank you for the stay and making us feel at home away from home. And be rest assured, I am booking your place whenever I am visiting Gokarna next time. :)Piyush2015-10-05T00:00:00Z
Mr. Rajeev is a great host. Everything in the vila is very well organized. There is even a guide telling you what to do and visit in Gokarna. I would recomment Mr. Rajeev's house to anyone who comes to Gokarna!Dimitar2017-02-12T00:00:00Z
Although a bit later than planned, because our journey is still going on, I want to thank Rajiv for the warm welcome and help in all matters. We felt all 4 days, which held in Gokarna, sincere friendliness of our wonderful host. The house is fully consistent with the information posted on the website. The level of comfort in Gokarna it apart from the competition. The owner is a very interesting person who can tell a lot about this place and show the surroundings. I heartily recommend to all. We hope to return. Thanks, Rajeev! Good luck and prosperity! Lena and AmalElena2016-03-11T00:00:00Z
Perfect host! I would say more than a host a friend. A guide and an awesome person. He showed us parts of Gokarna that otherwise we wouldn't have never seen. Apartment is perfectly located 5 min from Om beach. Rajeev stays right below so he's just a phone call away. He helped us with super early morning Check in. Cooked very delicious breakfast everyday. Tea is something you should not miss. I highly recommend this place and Rajeev as a host. Thank you boss. See you in Jan 2016Siddhesh2015-11-16T00:00:00Z
Very good host and guide.The house is on the top of the hill,cozy,clean,good view and cool. It feels like home. Rajeev provide tasty food and showed us some very good view points.Moon2015-09-27T00:00:00Z
This was the first time we booked on airbnb, and wow what a start. From start to finish, the entire stay at Vedic Village was like a dream. Rajeev, I must say is a candidate for 'Indian of the Year'. Warm-hearted host, who only cares for your comfort and well being. The property is beautiful and well maintained. The view from any of the large rooms is breathtaking - Arabian sea at its best. We stayed there for three nights and everyday was amazing. Gokarna is a hidden gem and Rajeev makes sure you enjoy the best the place has to offer. Don't forget to taste their mouth watering breakfast. I look forward to our next opportunity of visiting Vedic Village again.Sachit2016-01-02T00:00:00Z
Rajeev was an excellent host all through our trip - right from the advice on the route to take while arriving, to taking the time to make some delicious eats for us as soon as we arrived, and also taking us for a short sightseeing evening to some very special scenic spots! One evening, after our workshop, we arrived back to the homestay past 4 PM. And we hadn't had lunch! Without us even asking, Mr. Rajeev prepared a yummy meal so that we wouldn't go hungry. So very kind of him. He was totally accommodating of our dog as well. He really goes the extra step to think of what his guests might want - from books, to toiletries. The location of the homestay itself is perfect - just a short drive away from 2 beaches and some very nice short trekking spots nearby as well. It is so much more homely than staying at a traditional resort or hotel. I wish we had more days to enjoy and explore Gokarna, but with his hospitality, this destination is truly on the top of our list for the next trip we make!Suparna2016-05-02T00:00:00Z
I felt like, Rajeev's home stay is definitely a place to visit in Gorkarna. The amenities in the home stay ar definitely a worth to mention. His guidance through out the trip helped us a lot. The home stay has a neat map of the places to visit in Gokarna. He even took us for a small morning trek which we couldn't plan in our short weekend trip. I recommend everyone to visit his home stay. Thanks to his welcome drinks, coffee etc.,Bhavya2017-03-19T00:00:00Z

We enjoyed our stay in Anegundi! Thank you to Vijay at Murali and his family!Charlotte2017-04-25T00:00:00Z
It is a small house in Anegundi which is although 7-8 kms away from the main Virupuragaddi, its in a safe, quaint and quiet village and all the villagers are nice and helpful. Murali is an excellent host and is very responsive and guided us through the whole stay and also helped us plan our itinerary. Except for a bit washroom and wall cleanliness issues and weak WiFi connection due to lack of service providers in the area, we didn't regret our stay one bit and loved every moment of it.Purva2017-01-28T00:00:00Z
It was a good place to stay. Neat and well maintained.Sakthi Vinay2017-02-26T00:00:00Z
Wonderful stay, Muralidhar is a great host. The homemade breakfast was amazing. He was also a good guide and showed us the right places around Hampi and how to get there. Truly wonderful, hassle free stay. The house is a bit removed from Hampi island, thats not really a bad thing since you get to explore the area moreSachin2017-02-05T00:00:00Z
Nice place with good wifi but it's away from the main tourist town (but this isn't necessarily a bad thing)!Helen2017-01-26T00:00:00Z
As an unorganised traveller I always leaving things last minute and after trying for one of Muralidhars other properties which quickly fill up, they suggested me this place! If you are wanting to be right in the hustle of Hampi - this isn't for you. But I'm so glad for the experience I had because I was out of the main area (meaning a 15-20min drive). I'm a single, female traveller and everything was so easy with the help of everyone at the guesthouse. They hired me a bike and made sure I could safely drive it, changing from one of the heavier to lighter scooters and it was so much fun riding through the amazing outer areas of Hampi which is where it's real beauty shines (in my opinion) and it's super easy to go into town or see other attractions. I don't think I have very high standards as term as accomodation goes, but the place was clean, simple, safe and adequate. Wish I could have stayed longer!Alexandra2017-02-04T00:00:00Z

I'm unwillingly writing this review, because I don't want the world to discover this place. It's so breath-takingly beautiful, that it's hard to believe that such places exist even today, unspoilt by human conquest and commercialization. This one bhk house is adjacent to the Suvarna river. The river is 10 steps away to be precise. As you step out of the house, you are surrounded by coconut groves, and few steps later, at least 4 islands emerge in your view. It is highly reminiscent of the backwaters of Kerala, but is only much better. The house is on a large private estate, so privacy is guaranteed. The hosts are more than hospitable, helping you in every step of the way. This stay is great if you want to explore more offbeat places around Udupi, away from the hustle-bustle of Mangalore district. There are many many little islands and experiences to savor. Ensure that you stay here for atleast 3-4 days to fully appreciate and soak in this slice of heaven.Krithika2017-01-29T00:00:00Z
I had made this booking for my parents. Aldo and his mother were of great help to them in terms of guidance for directions, house facilities, things to do, etc. It was a very good experience for my parents and i cannot stop my parents from Talking about this place. I have made up my mind to visit this place too, sometime in near future.Ajinkya2017-04-01T00:00:00Z
This was my first homestay experience and by far the most beautiful place I have stayed in for my getaways. As the name says, this heavenly abode is just beside the Suvarna river surrounded by coconut groves, lush greenery, peacocks and most importantly PEACE which becomes difficult to experience in our fast paced day to day life. The calmness of the river and the freshness of the wind makes your stay filled with serenity. Every place I visited in Udupi urged me to go back and just relax at this beautiful place. The fresh breeze flowing throughout the day makes you feel you are sitting at some secluded beach and all you can think about is to capture this magical moment forever. You can choose a movie of your choice from the awesome collection of DVDs, read a novel from among those places in the shelf or just sit outside on the lovely benches, the experience of the breeze brushing your face at all times will make you relaxed. Thank you once again Felcy Aunty and Aldo for your gracious hospitality. Your place is a paradise. It is a perfect getaway. It is rightly said by Anita Desai, "wherever you go becomes a part of you somehow". The riverside has become a beautiful chapter in my life even though I stayed here for just two days. Will surely visit again!Garima2017-05-21T00:00:00Z
Address to be discovered on a peninsula home (fully for you) is surrounded by coconut palms and super quiet. Aldo filled the drinks fridge and victuals and her mom prepared us a wonderful traditional meal Warmly recommendedAlain2017-03-13T00:00:00Z
An amazing place!!! you can book without a second thought if you are looking for a calm place close to nature!!! The house looks very simple from outside but is well furnished and super clean from inside, it is situated between the coconut orchards. Aldo and Felcy aunty are very sweet and caring people. Necessary things will be provided as fast as possible. Aldo has really good taste for movies and has huge collection of it, I recommend you to have a look at it. Edge of the riverbed is slippery still you can try fishing (fishing rope is kept in the kitchen), keep your legs in water and enjoy the sunset. Recently they have also provided two new cycles; one can enjoy the ride around the place. Sitting in portico and listening to the ripples of the water at evening will take you to the other world. We visited this place in peak of summer but still place was cool and windy. This place stay offers you so much that you will love to spend more time around the house than going outside. Note for wildlife enthusiast- It is a birding paradise. Varieties of birds are sighted like Woodpeckers, Hornbills, Peacocks, Brahminy kite Ibis, Cormorants, Indian shag, Plovers. If interested do visit small island near hanging bridge, which is reachable by boat. It is a dense forest patch dominated by Earleaf Acacia trees and a very dense and diverse undergrowth (beware lots of thorns and insects, better to wear full pant and proper shoes). Since there are no proper forest trails you can have the adventure of exploring an uninhabited lonely area. Overall best place for getting lost in nature. One can also see large colony of hermit crab playing hide and sick on this island. I am sure once visited to this place feels like visiting again and again to surrender all your sense to nature and pamper your soul.Dharani2017-04-22T00:00:00Z
We were on a road trip and we needed a place to crash for a night and we found aldo's place through this. Though place is only for 2 people. 4 people can be accomodated if you are willing to sleep with extra sheets on floor, which we did. It's an amazing place, so serene and quiet. Right next to the river makes it more beautiful. All the facilities were to the point. It was a hassle free stay. For this price it's a great stay. Aldo was really Helpful even though he wasn't present there. But Felcy, his mom is a very kind woman. Who waited for us to reach, took us to the place and briefed us. Gave us essentials for morning breakfast. She even suggested us few nearby places to see. Overall it was a homely experience. I strongly recommend this place.Ravi2017-02-05T00:00:00Z
Perfect place to take a nice rest outside the noisy indian world. Aldo and his mum are very very lovely and caring hosts without disturbing your privacy. In addition it is possible to cook by yourself there, what was very cool for us for feeling a bit like home. If you are into good movies and want to have a proper moviesession, this place is also a must have. About 400 really good movies there... Furthermore it is possible to have an awesome boattrip in nearly untouched and not-touristic backwarers: Highly recommended! To make a long Story short: superb!miriam 2017-02-20T00:00:00Z

I would definitely recommend staying here to anyone. The place is spotless, very clean and comfortable, with all the amenities you need. The location of the accommodation is perfect, very central and with all kind of shops and nice restaurants around. Darshith and his family not only are amazing hosts but also great people. They were very helpful recommending us places to see, eat and go shopping. We definitely will come back here in the future.Mathias2017-03-27T00:00:00Z
What à great time we spent on Darshith home. Him and his family were really welcoming and helped us in so many ways. We would have spend more time with them. Hope they liked to share with us as we do. The room is clean and large and with a bathroom. Hot in summer but two big fans. This is well situated with an excellent ice cream shop on the corner, the Sri Ramakrishna ashram behind the house and commercial facilities and good vegi restaurant in walking distance. Just ask Darsith for sure he can help youMaik2017-04-02T00:00:00Z
Darshith was super helpful; he first picked me up early in the morning with his bike and in the evening he took me to Chamundi Hill to enjoy the sunset. He was also always available by phone and put extra detail and effort to accommodate me in any way possible. The room is spacious, clean, and easily reachable from the center with an uber or auto rickshaw (60-80 Rs, 2017). The neighborhood is very safe and has nice cafés and restaurants nearby. I totally recommend it Darshith's house!Juan Miguel2017-05-11T00:00:00Z

The place is really clean, very well maintained and it is centrally located. The building is very safe and secured. The place is close to supermarkets, restaurants and banks. It is our first time visit to Mysore and we really enjoyed staying here. The host is very caring, supporting and was ready to offer any help and this place is a perfect value for money. I would strongly recommend every visitor to opt this place and I look forward to come back to this place during my next visit to Mysore. Thank you darshith...Aleem2017-03-19T00:00:00Z
I cannot say enough positive things about Darshith and our stay here. We originally wanted to stay for four nights, but ended up staying for eight because we loved this city, and loved staying with Darshith and his family. Darshith has shown us so much kindness, and has been so very helpful. He has gone out of his way to make our stay a memorable one. The neighborhood is quiet, and a short walk to everything you might need. I highly recommend staying here to experience true Indian hospitality!Sondra2017-04-19T00:00:00Z
We have a great time spent on Darshith home, the home is cleaned and large with bathroom, hot in summer but good facility, This well situated with excellent facilities, there is near by Temple and stores and malls, just reach out to Darshith he will help and guide, such a good person.Pramod2017-04-15T00:00:00Z

It is a good place to stay . specially the scenery of the place is really awesome . manage you food and make sure you go in good weatherAkhil2016-03-28T00:00:00Z
Can't have asked for anything more - the property is no less than any other international property. A very well equipped place - drawing room, bed room, bathroom and a well equipped kitchen with induction stove and vessels. Even someone who wants to stay long term could consider this place. The landscaping and the serene location are top notch. If you are looking for privacy or just some calm time to sit down and write some poems, this would be the right place. At first I didn't think that the actual property will be as per the pictures uploaded in the description, but I was blown away when I saw that it was even better in reality! It was fun to have tea sitting on the bench outside the house and while looking at the blissful scenery. Very friendly host and innkeeper. Proximity to Wayanad, Nagarhole and Kabini make this a very attractive place. Oh and yes, even during the severest of rains, there was no power outage...that's a big deal in a place like this. 5 stars to this property!Mukunda2016-05-17T00:00:00Z
One of the best location if you want to have a weekend stay near nature...Muhammed2017-02-19T00:00:00Z
The place is close to the Bavali river, the place is beautiful.. it's just as described. There is a lot of thought process behind building this and this is seen. Complete package, The food is local food don't expect dal makhani, paneer things :p It's clean, cleaner than my house in fact :D the kitchen has all utensils needed and induction for all ur needs Bathroom is clean and spacious there is a geaser of small capacity as needed . The outside benches are perfect for a candle light dinner feels :D For all looking for a place to relax head this way :)Sudarshan2016-11-27T00:00:00Z

Great item. Quick shipment. A+
I love to make things from the ground up.
My work often starts with raw materials that I responsibly gather from the garden or the wild. It's not unusual to find me traipsing through fields or woods, or slogging through swampy places. Some of the naturals are prepared using primitive technologies before the creative process begins. I think there are many people like me, who find joy in feeling a connection with nature. If my work can bring happiness to those kindred spirits, I'm happy too.
I work totally on my own, in the time-honored tradition of fine artisans and crafts people. My handmade items start with a creative idea and are carried out to completion solely by me. You are purchasing directly from the artist! :)
Working in isolation, It's important to feel connected with others and like I'm doing some good for someone. So as part of my mission in having this Etsy shop I try and help others to empower themselves. I donate a percentage of my profits to these two organizations:

That's just what I thought ... looking at your pic! Hence my comment.
We have to stop meeting like this!

I need to "refer" to people when writing to them. Mention their name once in a while, in case they forget who I'm writing to. I just can't bring myself to call you... to call you... that O-word.
"45" seems impersonal. Besides, I just checked a Gun that goes by that same Moniker. No, I'm not into Guns. It was my Dad's, issued to him in 1941 when he became a Pilot. Bombed the Nazi's!!
Just did a winter check of the Colt 45 to be sure it's oiled...* There I go again. Why do you put up with this?
My point? What should I call you? With your flitting here and me flitting there... at this rate, "Two ships passing in the night" has as much relevance as the truth does on the sexual behaviors topic!
Next time... you can let me know... no? Enjoy your weekend '45~

BU hosts America East tournament
Playoff time: field hockey team gears up for "second season"
By Brian Fitzgerald
Across the world, millennium parties are about two months away. However, BU Field Hockey Coach Sally Starr and her Terriers will be ringing in the new year a little early.
"It's a new season," says Starr of her team's matchup against Delaware on Friday, November 5, at Nickerson Field. The 5 p.m. game is the first round of the America East tournament. The championship game, also at Nickerson Field, is on Sunday, November 7, at 1 p.m. The winner receives an automatic bid to the NCAA tournament.
But the Terriers first must get by Delaware, a team they defeated, 4-1, on the road September 26, but not without their share of damage. "We were beaten up in that game," says Starr. Indeed, forward Kate Cusick (CAS'02), who was third on the team in scoring last year -- and ninth on BU's all-time scoring list -- was lost for the season with a knee injury after being tackled from behind. "After that game, we also lost Jessica Alcorta for two weeks with a knee injury," says Starr. Without 1998 third-team All-American Alcorta (SED'00), who had five assists in her first seven games this year, BU nonetheless emerged victorious in three of its next four games, losing only to defending national champion Old Dominion.
BU's three final regular-season games resulted in losses to nationally ranked teams: Princeton, Connecticut, and Wake Forest. Starr would rather have gone into the playoffs on a winning note, but points out that there is no shame in losing to Connecticut, ranked at number two, or number six Wake Forest. The Princeton loss was a different matter. "All year we had done a good job at not having bad losses," says Starr. "But the Princeton game was a bad loss. That one kind of jumped up and bit us." Princeton's Illvy Friebe took a particularly big chomp out of the Terrier defense, scoring a hat trick. But it was a war that BU should have won. The Terriers enjoyed an 18-11 shot advantage, and had 12 penalty corner shots to the Tigers' 5.
"On any given day we can beat teams like Wake Forest and Connecticut," says Starr of the 1-0 losses to both teams. "But we have to remember that philosophy with Delaware too. America East's playoff format isn't like Hockey East's [men's ice hockey], where you can lose one and still come back to win it in a best-of-three series."
BU is undefeated in the conference, but that doesn't mean that the Terriers are unbeatable. In 1996, BU's only other unblemished season against conference opponents, the Terriers beat Delaware in the opening round of the tournament, but then lost to Northeastern. BU, with a 16-5 record, made the NCAA tournament anyway, only to be thwarted by Princeton in an excruciating 5-4 loss.
The 1996 season was BU's second finest ever. The Terriers achieved the final ranking of number eight. In 1985, the 17-4-2 squad went to the Final Four and ended up with a number four ranking, BU's best ever. However, after 13 straight winning seasons, Starr is ready to take her team to the next level. But first, the America East tournament.
"We don't want to get too wrapped up with getting an NCAA bid," says Starr. "That kind of distraction can turn into a negative. We'll just concentrate on playing our best game, and if we do that, we'll come away with a victory."
