    This place will give you a feeling of something out of the ordinary. Located a little outside the city, surrounded by lush vegetation, it exudes a calm atmosphere. the antique-style of this mansion, with its verandahs and inner courtyard, makes it a unique experience. the fully-equipped kitchen allows you to cook your own food, with a shopping trip accompanied by the friendly host. the Sri Lankan meals served here are delicious and the rooms are spacious and comfortable.

    The quality of the unpaved road leading to the hotel needs improvement.

    I had an amazing stay in a beautiful and calm antique home surrounded by lush vegetation. The fully equipped kitchen allowed me to cook my own meals and the traditional Sri Lankan meals provided by the friendly owner were delicious. The spacious living area provided plenty of space for relaxation and the staff was incredibly welcoming and caring.

    All good.

    The guest house is situated in a serene natural environment with lots of lush vegetation, offering a perfect retreat from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. the helpful host made us feel at home and provided us with very sumptuous and amazing meals. the charges were quite affordable and we really enjoyed the historic setting of the bungalow.

    One major challenge we experienced was the language barrier since the host and the tuktuk driver couldn't understand English. the location of the guest house is quite far from the town and we had to pay a relatively high amount for the tuktuk ride.

    Unique & Calm Location, Delicious Local Food, Welcoming Hosts

    I just came back from a city trip and stayed in a guesthouse that had an unusual location. The guesthouse was located amidst natural greenery and tall trees, perfect for those people who want to experience a peaceful and tranquil stay away from the hustle and bustle of the city. The hosts of the guesthouse prepared some of the most delicious local food, which I thoroughly enjoyed. The location of the guesthouse was also convenient as it was only a short walk from the main market area and had easy access to transportation.

    I did have a few negative experiences staying here. The rooms were quite old, cramped, and lacked basic amenities.
