Sand Banks @ Coorg,Karnataka
Sand Banks  
  
About Sand Banks:
Alluring as Coorg may be, there are those special areas that are quite peerless in their appeal. Sandbanks is one such. Juxtaposed in the crook formed by a curling bend in the Cauvery river and a range of hills in the west, Sandbanks is simply that - a green swarded stretch of gently undulating terrain nestled on the alluvial sandy deposits of a lazy river.
 
Accommodation :
The ambience puts you perfectly at ease and the lodging designed to blend in with rather than ornament the scenery. Graceful and charming, each feature of the landscape and hospitality structure is crafted to soothe and comfort.The homestay consists of 2 twin cottages (for 4 families)situated on a long stretch of land, within a coffee estate in and surrounded by a small river on three sides approx 150 mts from Sand Banks,which is secluded & has total privacy.The cottages have two sections,with each section(for one couple), consisting of a verandah,a bedroom & a toilet.It also has a small kitchenette & a store.While the store is only for the hosts' use,the kitchenette can be let out(on a extra charge)provided the same party occupies both rooms. Bamboo huts which can be used as dining rooms or as a sit out,is both cool & blends with the environment.Timber cottage has a enclosed verandah .Coffee cottage has a fireplace and open verandah.
