“Fantastic guesthouse”
The family who run the guest house are very kind, welcoming and excellent cooks. The Man took us on a great trip up to Lipton's seat and the tea factory. The views are superb.

“Big recommendation”
We couldn’t choose better place to stay In Haputale. If you don’t mind a bit of walk totally grew location - calm, amazing view. Room clean, warm blankets, hot water and the window in front of the bed with the morning sunrise view is just incredible. Plus owner is really helpful. Big recommendation

“A simple guesthouse with outstanding owners”
Begum and her husband could not have been more helpful. This is a simple guest house, well located only 10 minutes from the town. Begum's husband has a tuk tuk and took us to Liptons seat early one morning. We had a magnificent walk back to town. It's about 16km but so beautiful. The guest house is a short walk from the town. Begum cooked a lovely meal for us one evening.

“Great place”
Spacious rooms with beautiful view over the mountains and very kind and helpful hosts! Hot water shower saved our day on a rainy breezy day. Walking distance from the town, make sure to ask for the shortcut.

“Great hosts”
We had a lovely stay at this guest house! The owners were so accommodating and made sure we had everything we needed. The room was comfortable, and it was such a treat to have a nice hot shower after a long day. Breakfast was freshly made and really delicious — a perfect start to the day. We were especially grateful that they helped transport our luggage to our next homestay, so we didn’t have to carry it ourselves. Such thoughtful and generous hosts!
