Offering a restaurant, Clay Hut Village is located in Polonnaruwa. It is 1 km from the ancient ruins of the Polonnaruwa City and the famous Polonnaruwa Canal. Free WiFi access is available in the public areas of the property.

This is a delightful place to stay. So many good aspects to consider: friendly and kind staff, delicious meals, quiet location not far from the sightseeing, ability to arrange excursions and onward journey, wildlife on property: monkeys, deer, birds…, laundry service, ability to call in craftsmen to display their wares. And the meals…they are soooo good. And..suggest you ask your host any questions you can think of about Sri Lanka…you will learn a lot from his straightforward answers.

    I ordered single room, but got a free upgrade to a bigger one. The place is quiet old and basic, but ok to crash for a night. Rented a bike from the owners for 800 and had a plentiful dinner which I was not able to finish and could probably feed 2-3 people for 1500. It is close to bus stop.

    We really loved this place - very relaxing with the pool after a day in the ancient city. Its a little outside of the city centre but we actually enjoyed that it was so quiet next to the rice fields. The family was very nice, also taking care of our food allergies.
