A Slow Escape: 2-day Getaway from Bangalore

You don’t need to go far for a break. 3 hours from Bangalore, near a town called Hassan, there’s a place that feels like it’s from a different time. Rolling green stretches, temples carved centuries ago, and quiet mornings. It’s a simple idea—leave the city, breathe better, eat slower. And somehow, it works. If you’re looking for a spot that does all this well, Hoysala Village Resort is a solid pick. It's conveniently located, making it easily accessible for a quick trip, yet just remote enough to help you truly switch off.

Something About the Space

The resort keeps things simple—and that’s what makes it special. Mornings begin with quiet walks along tree-lined paths, surrounded by the sounds of nature. Some days start with a calming yoga session, while others ease into a refreshing Ayurvedic massage. Breakfast stands out—not just for its flavour, but for the way it’s served. The traditional ‘Bale Ele’ spread comes on a fresh plantain leaf, staying true to its roots and leaving a lasting impression.

Days Without a To-do List

You won’t find loud activities or overdone entertainment here. Instead, they offer cooking lessons featuring local dishes. Want to try something different? Pick up a few crafting skills—maybe some palm leaf weaving or rangoli art. Evenings are about music, maybe a quiet bullock cart ride, or joining in the bhajans at the Sai Baba shrine inside the resort. For celebrations or team retreats, the resort has options like The Tambulam or the indoor-outdoor Hummingbird venue. People have hosted everything here—from birthdays to quiet destination weddings.

A Region with Layers

Outside the resort, there’s plenty worth exploring. Belur, about 15 km away, has the Chennakesava Temple with walls that seem to tell stories. Halebidu’s carvings are equally impressive. If you’re up for a climb, Shravanabelagola’s statue of Bahubali is something you won’t forget. Be sure to visit the Lakshmi Devi Temple at Doddagaddavalli for a truly peaceful experience. It's often uncrowded and possesses a quiet beauty that makes it a special stop. Shettihalli Church, half underwater depending on the season, is eerie in the best way. And if you’ve got time, Chikmagalur is about 65 km off—a nice add-on for anyone craving hills, coffee, or a cool breeze.
