“A quaint wooden cottage so near to Ella Town”
If you are looking to escape the chaos of daily life and step directly into nature’s lap, this spectacular property is an absolute dream. From the moment we arrived, we were completely captivated by the breathtaking scenic beauty surrounding the estate. The entire property radiates beautiful, serene vibes, making it the ultimate destination for a truly relaxing getaway. We stayed in a stunning cottage room that perfectly balanced rustic charm with modern comfort. The interiors were incredibly spacious, boasting a gorgeous earthy design that felt both grounded and luxurious. On top of that, the cleanliness was flawless, which immediately put us at ease. What truly elevates this experience, however, is the hospitality. The staff members were exceptionally courteous, attentive, and always ready to help with a genuine smile. A special mention goes to our wonderful host, whose warmth, kindness, and personal touch made us feel like family rather than just guests. Every moment spent here felt like a breath of fresh air. It is a rare gem that delivers peace, comfort, and top-tier service all at once. **Overall Rating:** ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (5/5 Stars) We absolutely loved our stay and are already looking forward to meeting the wonderful team again soon!

“The big 10!!”
Yoga (the manager) and his staff were very helpful in many ways. I was here with my two brothers and we really had an excellent time here: location is very central, rooms are very clean, comfortable and nicely decorated. The generous breakfast was the best we had in Sri Lanka. You couldn't ask for more.

“Hidden gem”
Beautiful small quiet rooms. The furniture is gorgeous! Nice touches throughout. Great location to the Main Street,so perfect for the bars and shops although bear in mind there is a steep hill to walk up to access the cottages but doable! Would definitely recommend and definitely come back!

“Great location, clean room, good breakfast and perfect base for reaching the main attractions.”
Great location — just a 3‑minute walk to the main street of the town, full of restaurants, bars and shops. It’s also very convenient for hiking: only 10 minutes on foot to the start of the Nine Arches Bridge trail and about 15 minutes to Little Adam’s Peak. The property is very nice, with the option to have a very good breakfast From the balcony of our room, which overlooked the garden, we could also see one of the main streets of the town. The room was clean and exactly as described in the offer. Overall, a very pleasant stay and an excellent base to explore the area.

We arrived at ….. and saw our rooms were not together. Both in separate areas. The management, Mr Gihan and team were quick to swap some guests around to make sure we were happy with placement. The following day (our last day) they kindly let us check out a little later to gain some extra rest from all our travels. Once checked out my friend came back from a massage and mentioned he was still a little oily from it and Gihan insisted he took a shower before leaving even know we had checked out. The level of care and genuine compassion was 10/10. Such lovely caring team willing to make your stay as pleasurable as possible Thank you Gihan and team. B and Jack
