Dining at Save Farm: variety is the spice of life!

Other than accommodation and service, food is the mainstay of any trip. At Save Farm, Gholwad the food was outstanding. If you want to truly savour the variety, do stay for 3 nights at least. You won’t regret it, I promise! Every day we had something special in addition to varying vegetables. The only common dishes on the daily menu were the usual staple food: dal, rice, rotis, koshimbir, green chutney, pickle, roasted papad and chaas. At breakfast, fruit pieces are served with the main dish and toasted break slices with butter are also available (as many as you want). Even the pickles were of a varying nature. Check out the menu details and photos below and I’m sure it will set you drooling.

Save Farm Gholwad review 2015: investing in a second home

At the end of our 4 night stay at Save Farm, Gholwad, my aunt summed it up beautifully when she said that instead of spending big bucks on a second home as a vacation home, far better would be to spend on a regular visit a couple of times in a year to Save Farm! It is such a charming, lovely agricultural retreat that it is indeed as good as staying at one’s own vacation home in the midst of nature somewhere in rural India.

Capitol Village resort Madikeri Coorg review

The name Coorg immediately brings to mind lush greenery and what better way to enjoy it than in the midst of a beautiful plantation? A couple of years ago we did just that, at the Capitol Village Holiday Resort in Madikeri for a hospitable stay in the midst of nature's picturesque settings.

Saguna Baug accommodation rates and general facilities

As mentioned earlier, paying a casual visit and enjoying a day's picnic at Saguna Baug, Neral is not a bad idea but far better is to stay there for a couple of days. Your stay will definitely be a comfortable one. What's more, it is 100% value for money, with no dent on your wallet.

Saguna Baug Neral food review

The food served to us during our stay in the Pond House rooms at Saguna Baug, Neral was wholesome, tasty and properly cooked. However, don’t expect any great variety if you are staying for many days, as the vegetable for the meals as also the breakfast items tends to be repetitive and becomes boring. As mentioned here, we were disappointed at not getting some traditional items which we had definitely expected.
