    The owner/host was so helpful. She definitely went above and beyond. Comfy bed, gorgeous artwork and sculptures, great hot shower. Loved the location so close to Kandy Lake and the tea service.

    - good location - good breakfast (served in nice Café just next door) - very few mosquitos - comfy bed Recommendations: if you like hiking, do the Pekoe trail Part 1. I liked the "no name"-restaurant close-by (however, bring some time).

    It feel magical. Beautiful furnishings around the property. It sits away from the centre and close to the lake but not on the road. It’s calm and has a tea room. The hosts are delightful and looked after my big bag while I visited Sinigirya.
