“Peaceful family hospitality”
The peaceful location, excellent breakfast (it varied over our three night stay), friendly and helpful hosts. The rooms were beautiful, recently built and were of a very high standard. We also enjoyed a delicious dinner (enough for an army) and excellent laundry service available. The host family were warm and spoke excellent English (which definitely helped us to communicate freely). This really offered outstanding value for money!

“Very very nice!!! Love it”
We absolutely loved our stay here. The staff were incredibly welcoming and helpful with everything — they made us feel very comfortable from the moment we arrived. The highlight of the room was the private balcony. It had a beautiful view of the mountains and tea plantations, and we spent a lot of time there. The sunsets were absolutely stunning. The room had air conditioning, and everything fully matched the photos. Overall, it was a very pleasant and atmospheric stay.

Beautiful spot nestled in the hills. Breakfast on the balcony was a real treat. There is about a 15 minute walk into Ella Town, taking the road and train tracks to get there. Highly reccomend staying here if you want to do the the Ella Rock hike.
