Living Amidst Nature
CHIPL is set amidst nature in the truest sense! Cottage doors open to a view of azure skies, green mountains and misty clouds. Lush coffee plantations, pepper creepers and silver oak mark the area around the resort. Birds and butterflies in variegated colours, rabbits, and a variety of fishes inhabit the woods, ponds and rivulets of the estates. Serenity and oneness with the flora and fauna is the gift offering of Coorg Heritage Inn to all our visitors.
Eco-friendly practices
At Coorg Heritage Inn, we believe in ensuring a sustainable use of resources available to us and maintaining a harmonic relationship with the environment. An iconic example is the tapping of a natural source of water available at an elevation, which is brought downwards by gravity for the use of guests, staff and the rest of the village community without the use of any power or electricity.
