Gorus forest farm is a 10-acre organic farm located in the Western Ghats, which have been declared a biodiversity hotspot by the United Nations. The farm has a hilly topography, while hosting a diversity of native flora and fauna. Arabica coffee is the main crop which is grown under the shade of native trees. Other crops include turmeric, ginger, banana, pineapple and more. The farm offers a peaceful nook to immerse yourself in nature. 
 
Two cottages are available for stay. Just a 3-hour drive from Mumbai! 
 
What to Expect: 
Visitors can expect simple rooms with a nice view, clean bathrooms, and freshly made local food. Our staff is trained in basic hospitality, but they are best at doing farm work. Reading a book, writing a poem, going for walks or just listening to the birds is what most of our visitors have enjoyed here. Visitors are also welcome to participate in daily farm activities. Guided local tours can be arranged for visiting Besde Buddhist Caves, Kuperi Peak, Jambhuldev Sacred Grove, Walen Shiva Temple, and Tikona Fort.
