ABOUT

The Highlands Homestay is located about 3 minutes from the Varahi back waters, less than 10 minutes away from the Malgudi town Agumbe, famous Kundadri Hills, Kuppalli and Kavale Durga fort. Shimoga-Udupi, Mangalore Highway is just 1km away. It is the best homestay around Agumbe and Thirthahalli. The Highlands at Megaravalli is a serene setting that takes you away from your daily hassles to a different world of bio diverse Western Ghats. You wake up to the smell of locally grown coffee, listening to the chirping birds and sip your coffee looking at the areca nut farms with a view of the mountain backdrop. You are guaranteed to remember the taste of malnad food in our homestay.
