Kolavara Heritage Home Stay in Thirthahalli near Kuvempu house & memorial Karnataka

Kolavara Heritage is a 150-year-old home near Thirthahalli, Shivamogga district. Located amidst an arecanut plantation in the Malnad region of Karnataka, the heritage home is beautifully maintained by the owners. Members of the family have been residing in the house from the time it was built. Besides being a place of interest by itself, Kolavara Heritage is close to Kuppalli, the birthplace of Kuvempu who is considered the greatest Kannada poet of the 20th century. Kuvempu's ancestral home and his memorial are less than 10 km from Kolavara Heritage. Kuvempu's ancestral home is beautifully maintained. Everyone must visit his home. The architecture of the house, the rooms inside, the layout of the house...simply extraordinary. His memorial, Kavishyla, is within walking distance, but involves a steep climb when you take the route from his home. Luckily, there is an easier alternative for those who are intimidated by the climb. The memorial is on the lines of the Stonehenge in the United Kingdom. It is located on the top of a hill that Kuvempu used to frequent in pursuit of tranquillity and inspiration. Kuvempu's home and memorial are out of the way for any tourist to Karnataka, but if you chose to visit, you will not regret the effort. Best time to visit the memorial is early in the morning. While tourists are not allowed to stay, or even take photos, inside the home of Kuvempu, Kolavara Heritage is next best thing in the area.
