Just back from a weekend trip at this place with 3 other friends. Amazing location with hills in the backdrop and lot of greenery. Neat and clean rooms/ cottages. Food was average (certain items were good), very simply and random snacks are not entertained with enthusiasm. As guys, taking time off work, our only intention was to roam around a... More

Taking my pet to Hunkal Woods was a wonderful experience for me and my pet. Every part of the holiday provided a new angle of fun for both the pet and the owner. With a large enough group, the entire property becomes private, which allows your pets to roam freely all over the area. My dog had a great time... More

A great place. Had a great time. The food was awesome, tasty, homely and very well cook. Hunkal woods is right in the middle of coffee estate and is surrounded with a lot of trees and forest adjacent to it. Rooms were neat and clean with 24/7 hot water and coffee. You call for coffee and fresh filtered coffee with... More

About 40 KM from Kadur railway station. They are in a nice hill-backdrop location amidst the estates, have good staff, food and accommodation. It is a home away from home. Their property is a big. Please ask the trek guide guy to take you to the ancient Shiva temple located inside their plantations. The treks were exciting & adventurous. We... More

We were a group of 17 colleagues who visited Hunkal Woods in mid-July 2012. Some of us have seen a few other places comparable to Hunkal, yet every place is unique and has its own charms. Food was good, unlimited coffee is a sell-out idea till you start feeling apologetic about asking the lady for just one more cup, bonfire... More

We were at Hunkal woods end of May - and the mornings and nights were cold which was a blessing. The place gets a thumbs up for location - its surrounded by hills. The accommodation is simple - with 2 single beds and a dresser - yet clean. We stayed in the main bungalow which is good for families -... More

My Hunkal Woods experience was excellent to say the least.It has everything a nature enthusiast would want-Serenity,greenery and the feeling of having the 'Sholas' behind you!The combination of unlimited coffee,treks in the sholas and tranquility is Hunkal Woods USP!The staff here are courteous,friendly and definitely know what service is.It is not the typical commercial resort with A/Cs,TVs and swimming pools...
