“Nice stay but a bit awkward to pay”
Beautiful location, delicious breakfast with big portions (maybe too big if anything) and many fireflies in the evening

“Enjoyable stay and excellent cookery course”
Beautiful property within walking distance of Ella town. Owners were exceptionally friendly and hospitable. The highlight of was the cookery course myself, husband and 2 teenagers did with Thusitha and her daughter which was wonderful, everything made with fresh ingredients that we were able to enjoy afterwards. Would highly recommend this place and the cookery course

“A relaxing stay made even better by the excellent cooking class.”
We had an amazing stay at this homestay. The staff are incredibly friendly, and the Sri Lankan breakfast was delicious. We highly recommend the cooking class! The location is perfect, just a few minutes’ walk from the busy street, yet the homestay is quiet and peaceful.

Really great homestay in Ella. The accomodation is about 10-15 minute walk from the central part of Ella and about 15 minute walk to the station. The house is lovely and the room was spacious and clean, as was the bathroom. Great balcony to sit outside during the cool evenings. Our host was lovely and accomodating and made her delicious breakfast for us early as we were getting an early train.

Plenty of space in the rooms. The location is about 10 min walk from the main road, so you hear the birds instead of noise from bars and vehicles. The Sri Lankan breakfast was delicious. Excellent value for money.
