    It is a really beautiful 1920s bungalow. The owner and Staff were brilliant, very kind and attentive. They made us feel very welcome. I would really recommend having dinner there. The sri lankan food was excellent (as was breakfast!).
    I would suggest sticking to Sri Lankan food, rather than western as this was better.

    Worst stay ever, would not recommend and this property should be taken down from booking.com
    Nice view in the morning time if youre not surrounded by bugs which is rare.
    The property is infested with spiders, cockroaches, geckos, ants and other bugs which makes it very uncomfortable. I found a frog in the shower. The place has no privacy as the staff members are constantly in the property with you also Suresh the owner comes and goes which makes it feel very uncomfortable. Location is very bad as its very far from the city and with no asphalt road leading to the house (only dirt road). Please beware as theres a security camera inside the property that we werent informed of and found it out on our own.

    Beautiful and unique villa near Kandy
    The house is very unique and charming, views from the garden and swimming pool are beautiful. Everything looks just like the photos. The staff and host family are very friendly and helpful.
    Location is a bit away from the town, but we had a car so this wasn't an issue for us.

    It was a perfect stay to experience Sri Lanka
    we enjoyed our stay in your villa very much. the very friendly hospitality and the history of your family and the house impressed us very much. Your family reflects what we know from Sri Lanka - friendliness and helpfulness.
    There is nothing to complain about the location, cleanliness and breakfast and look forward to our next visit.

    Very nice owner.
    Did not like the Vila, too much old decoration (on the floor and wall) that you feel like in a musium and not hotel. Beds are not comfortable. There is one staff for full time to support you but unfortunately, she do not speak any foreign language (you cannot communicate). Water pressure is always low and every time you must ask the staff to open pressure motor. Also, every time you want to go to the garden, you have to ask the staff to open the door (always locked). The worst part is that too much mosquitoes and geckos. There is only one AC and they will charge for it USD15 per day.
