Cozy cottage nestled away in the mountains of Nuwara Eliya. It was a very scenic and picturesque location from any window you looked out of. Couldn’t find a single insect in the room or the property, which is difficult to achieve based on our other stays around Sri Lanka. The materials and design used around the property add to the ambience with, wooden flooring and walls, stone wallpaper in the bathroom, sloped ceiling. Breakfast was very tasty and filling.

Australia
The property itself was amazing. The building is over 130 years old but excellently maintained. As a boutique hotel it only accommodates up to 11 guests at a time, making it a very homely experience, which we loved. The staff were absolutely excellent, going out of their way to make our stay comfortable. No request was too much, or too little. And we absolutely loved engaging with them. Situated near Nuwara Eliya it boasts some amazing views which we thoroughly enjoyed as we sat down for some tea (and it was some of the best tea we’ve had) or breakfast. As a small boutique hotel, food choices can be somewhat limited but their a’ la carte menu items, in our view, would meet most tastes. The food we ate was excellent quality with pastry items (bread, croissants, cakes etc.) made on the premises. These also were excellent.
