BENGALURU MAKES CAMPING COOL

KARNATAKA

The good thing about living in Bengaluru, apart from the ease of living and generally low metropolitan rent, is the plethora of trekking and camping options just outside of the city; and, there’s always room for more. Opened in July 2020, Rusty is a shipping container converted into a guesthouse, just 90 minutes from Bengaluru. Inside the Ragihalli State Forest, the seriously adorable tiny home is built from an upcycled container that was originally made in Bermuda, reveals Arsh Bansal, architect and owner of the stay. It’s camping—but with creature comforts like a well-equipped kitchenette where you can cook your own meals, a hot shower, and a bed. Arsh even sends a playlist to guests to keep them company on the drive to Rusty. Inspired by Ruskin Bond’s Rusty Runs Away, a weekend here is for those who want a break from city life with no AC and no Wi-Fi; there’s a copy of the book inside the cabin. This is an intimate stay with a capacity of three people—and is pet-friendly.
