While the room tariff is low, the food bill for us came to about 1000 bucks per head per day. They say "food is served at a nominal extra charge". Like most such places, they feel their homestay tagh justifies the village-offerings at city-prices.

On 15th August,I visited Yelagiri with my family.I left from Bangalore.Some points I want to mention so that many more people from Bangalore will visit this place. From Hosur proper signboard should be placed.Even from the main road,going towards Chennai,there is no mention about Yelagiri. TTDC have lot of work to do for beautification of Yelagiri.The Lake is not properly maintained.Good Hotels for North & South Indian foods should be arranged.People should be educated to have working knowledge of English or Hindi.The total area of Yelagiri is not small.TN Govt. can do plenty of things to make it more attractive at least like Yarcud & can earn from Tourism.
