The hosts were so welcoming and friendly, and very kind. We’d booked dinner, We arrived after 9pm as the train was 2 hours late but they kept the dinner for us, and it was frankly the best vegetarian rice and curry we’d had in Sri Lanka. I loved identifying birds in the garden and I’m impressed with the building work they’re doing to make another guest room.

The location was great, just outside the village, but walking distance to the town. The host was the cutest and she made amazing breakfast for us. The room was great as well. Would love to come back!

Really nice family. The room and location is really good. Just 10min walking from the city. The breakfast was so delicious and with fresh fruits. I can highly recommend this place!

Lovely host (Nilmini) and her husband who drives a 3 wheeler met us at the station. Travelled with my mum who helped with the language barrier as hosts speak Sinhala. Lovely quiet area in a tea estate and her husband kindly drove us around for one day to see sights for an additional costs. They also kindly offer lovely meals and breakfast for additional costs. Nilmini went out of her way to make us feel welcomed and gave us some fruits from her garden when we left. Thank you.

Without doubt the most lovely people we have met on our travels. Made us feel welcome as soon as we arrived with papaya juice, then tea.... then got offered dinner and the chance to learn to cook Sri Lankan curry. The property is on the outskirts of town nestled in the tea plantations but is also walking distance to the shops and restaurants, less than 1km, it is a good size one bedroom villa/bungalow with beautiful views from the windows and the terrace. Also you see the train crawling its way around the mountains. Next day the breakfast was really good, with coffee, pancakes, toast and fruit etc, and we also got fruits to take on our forward journey. If I could give 100 out of 10 I would. If you are travelling to Ella please give this family the chance to show the hospitality that we received. A great price also I would have paid double. A big thank you from Simon and Fiona.
