this was my favourite place that i have stayed in my month in sri lanka. the rooms are so comfortable and i loved the wood features in the rooms. the tea and coffee makong facilities were an added bonus for the price. the outside areas are lush and green and it was a pleasure to sit outside on an evening. the staff and host were easy to talk to about all things. the place has a peaceful and creative energy, i hope to come back again. the food was also some of the best i have tasted in sri lanka.
