REST HOUSES

Travellers bungalows, district bungalows, forest department bungalows and rest houses, usually equipped with crockery, furniture, mattresses etc. are maintained by the State. These bungalows are intended for the lodging of officers of various Government Departments, when they are on tour for official purposes. Some of these bungalows are also open to the public, but preference is given to the Government officers. Moderate charges are levied upon the lodgers so as to cover the cost of lighting and menial services.

There is a travellers bungalow at Kolhapur while there are inspection bungalows at Panhala, Malkapur, Kurundwad, Radhnagari and Ichalkaranji. There is also a Circuit House at Kolhapur under the charge of the Collector of Kolhapur.
