    Wish we could have stayed longer!
    We loved everything about this place. The host Lucian is amazing and so accomodating and a very good cook. The room is simple & clean, and has everything you need + a very nice shower. The view from the garden is beautiful and if its raining theres a nice living room to chill. We did a hike to one of the peaks in the knuckle range, which Lucian helped us arrange (you need a guide to come with you + special socks so the leeches cant get you). It was challenging, but beautiful, and we were the only ones there since not many places offer this hike. It took us around 7/8 hours to complete the hike, so we recommend to start early!

    The road to the cottage is very steep. Its definitely doable by tuktuk, but if you drive yourself and you dont feel comfortable, give Lucian a call and he will help you out!

    Beautiful Location & Great Hospitality
    I like the views, garden and plantation surrounding the property. Friendly staff, who gave us a soursop from his harvest. Comfortable stay, but is difficult to get to, especially at night. We were informed in advance, but did not expect the steep roads leading up to the cottage.

    Great secluded location with nice trekkings
    Lucien is a great host and you are in a very quiet area but with a feeling of being at home. It's a private experience. We also did the knuckle forest hike and it's great but intense! Be up for 6 to 8 hours of rainforest trekking!!
    No complaints

    Great experience !
    We had three wonderful and peaceful days at the pepper cottage. We were lucky and the only guests in that time, the host Lucian was very helpful to organize trips according to our individual wishes. He is an honest person with an interesting story and has good connections in the village, everyone knows him. We did a hiking tour through the village and to a beautiful waterfall. The next day we went to a local weaving mill, tea plantation and fishing with local fishermen. We were never forced to buy anything, he just wanted to show us. Food was excellent and fair price. Rooms are nice and Tidy and Lucian is a very good Cook. We liked it really much.

    Lucian and the whole local community are very welcoming. This whole cottage arrangement is a perfect example of local sustainability. The free guided hikiings with our children, natural swimming pools, visiting organic coffee plantation... Sri Lanka at its purest and wildest. (You better do the last hilly kilometre by tuktuk).

    We were at the Pepper Cottage on our 2nd day during our Sri lanka visit, so we didnt really know what was ahead of us. Luckily we met Lucian who was the host of the place. Besides delicious and variable lokal food that lucian cooked for us, he, showed us the nearby waterfall and even Took us to a Gym in the morning. Furthermore we were the first people to sleep in a cottage beside the house, just like 20m up the Hill. Shower and Toilette worked wirhout Problems and the Moskito-net Kept most of insects away from us. All ower im very happy about our 3 day stay at the pepper cottage. It Was the perfect Start into our trip. Add: We followed Lucians advise to Continue travelling by bus which worked perfecty. Outside of Colombo things are war more chilled.

    Very nice house in beautiful nature, amazing host, Lucian, and incredible food.
    Lucian, the manager, is an amazing host and very good cook. we had a feast everyday of our stay, and we felt ver my welcomed and cared for.
    the room is quite small and the place is beautiful, however there the garden and the terrace are very small and not so enjoyable to just chill or relax. Also this house is perfect for a couple of night, not so much for resting and relaxing as we had planned initially.

    Beautiful location! If you like to get a little more off the beaten track, you should go here. Lots of nice walks in the area. The food is also good and Lucian is very welcoming. Would recommend!
