Spacious comfortable room with separate entrance. Large bathroom with shower. Beautiful scenery if a little remote ( not a criticism, just something to be aware of) Walking opportunities straight from door. The weather wasn’t kind to us but we did get one morning when we were able to do the tea experience. The best part for me was the food - they prepared some wonderful gluten free Sri Lankan meals for me which was the best food I had in our 3 week trip. Dave is very engaging and we enjoyed our chats with him.

We only had one night here. Beautiful location. dinner was a delicious classic Sri Lankan meal and breakfast was a great omelette cooked up by the wonderful Ashoka. The views are spectacular from the top of the hill. Also great view from the pool. Christo was also very welcoming and made our stay as comfortable as possible. He also took us on a bush walk around the property showing us all the different plants, herbs and fruits. If you’re lucky like we were you may spot a few wild elephants as well as the roam the hills around the property.

The location is in a quiet spot just a short tuktuk ride from the city centre which was perfect for us. Great breakfast (Sri Lankan 6 items, fruit, coffee)and when we had to leave early for a train they even provided a packed breakfast which was very much appreciated. Above all, the hosts is what make this place really special. He exceptionally lovely and welcoming. He helped us plan everything during our stay and made us feel very at home. If we ever come back to Kandy, we know where we will stay ☺️. Thank you!
