CGH Earth Saha Adds Pollachi Riverhouse To Handpicked Escapes

New Handpicked Escape In Rural Tamil Nadu

CGH Earth Saha added Pollachi Riverhouse to its Handpicked Escapes portfolio. The property is a single-key, three-bedroom private pool villa designed for families and small groups looking for a quiet stay away from city environments, while still having access to modern amenities.

Situated about 90 minutes from Coimbatore and close to the Anamalai hills, Pollachi Riverhouse offers a setting that combines accessibility with seclusion. The surrounding area includes coconut plantations, agricultural fields, and open plains, with the Western Ghats forming the backdrop, reflecting the rural character of Pollachi.

The design of the property opens to panoramic riverside landscape and lush lawns. Floor-length sliding doors in the living area flood the interiors with verdant views, a private pool, and soothing sounds of the river. The villa’s architecture respects the natural contours of the riverbank while framing its most captivating vistas, from the shaded patio to the pool deck and cabana dining area, where the river remains a soothing, ever-present companion. 

The interiors are designed with a restrained aesthetic, combining contemporary forms with natural materials and vintage-inspired furnishings. An infinity pool extends toward landscaped lawns that lead to the riverbank, creating a relaxed outdoor setting suitable for informal gatherings, family meals, or small evening barbecues.

Dining at Pollachi Riverhouse highlights the culinary traditions of the region, with a focus on Kongunadu cuisine made using locally sourced produce, traditional spice blends, and time-honoured recipes. Meals reflect the area’s agricultural roots and are presented with the understated warmth typical of Tamil Nadu’s hospitality.

Guests have opportunities to engage with the surrounding region through a range of curated activities. Wildlife lovers can visit the nearby Topslip and Parambikulam Tiger Reserves, which are known for their diverse flora and fauna, including elephants, gaur, deer, and bird species. In the vicinity of the villa, visitors can also experience local practices such as palm sugar production, palm-leaf weaving, and explore Pollachi’s handloom centres.
