Mugilu is a homestay and plantation stay located on undulating hills in a small village near Sakleshpur.
The three cottages at Mugilu are color themed and add vibrancy to an already sparkling natural environment.

Mugilu is just 230 km from Bangalore and with the new roads, its a pleasant 4 hour drive from the city for an ideal getaway anytime. In these serene surroundings, you have ample opportunities for bird and butterfly watching - both endemic and migratory. Mugilu experiences gusty winds and cool breeze almost all days in the year. Anyone staying there will have the chance to witness glorious spring days, a light summer, misty mornings, torrential monsoon and chilly winters.

Having three cottages, Mugilu is exclusively for couples and small families only. This provides a perfect home ambience and personal attention while still sufficiently spread out to offer every guest their own space without intrusions.

Rooms
Mugilu has been designed to be one with nature. You will see natural trails and pathways, less concrete
and therefore the beauty as it originally was. The cottages have been built to accommodate nature, not to disrupt it. They are built in the style of the local houses - on stilts and having sloping tiled roofs, terra-cotta floors and ethnic coffee tree furnishing. The decor is bright and vibrant with a color theme to each of our three cottages. There is no Television or Air Conditioning.

Dining area
The dining area is at a lower level, amidst the plantation. It provides a scenic and serene atmosphere for a relaxed sit-out irrespective of meal times. Coffee tree furnishings, lounge sofas, bar stools and the sound of wind blowing through Casuarina trees add to the tranquil ambience. Mugilu's home cooked food, prepared to perfection will leave you with that warm fuzzy feeling of being pampered.
