“Een teleurstelling”
Given the reviews and photos, we had high expectations. Unfortunately, they weren't met. We found our stay disappointing. Our three children slept in the new section, which was okay. But we, the parents, slept in the old section. The owner really needs to do some maintenance on several things, but at least on the bedroom in the old section. The room and bathroom smelled of mold. The bathroom was old, worn, unclean and had broken parts. Only a small used soap was left in the bathroom. The mattress on the very old bed was in really bad condition. Furthermore, there was a strange smell in the house. The two staffmembers did their best, sort off, but we didn't quite understand the manager's role and missed the true Sri Lankan hospitality. The manager was constantly nearby. We are not used to that and we value our privacy. Dinner and breakfast were poor. The poorest we've had in Sri Lanka and dinner was on the pricey side. At dinner, we asked for dessert (included at the menu). The manager then took a used container of ice cream from the freezer and put it in the kitchen. We were left to prepare the rest ourselves. Rockbourne was a further disappointment for us. In our opinion, the photos don't match really with the reality. Besides the beautiful garden, we enjoyed the chill-out area with the pool table. Otherwise, it was disappointing and, in our opinion, overpriced and overrated.

“Comfortable but a little overpriced”
Comfortable spacious room and bad with many different common areas so easy to have privacy and enjoy even if the weather is bad. The chef and assistant were amazing - real Sri Lankan hospitality.

“A colonial-style bungalow with modern entertainment—ideal for a vacation”
It's one of the best bungalows we've ever stayed in. Designed to resemble a colonial bungalow, it features many attic items, old pictures, and an overall colonial vibe. The amenities are impressive, including a gym, billiards, foosball, darts, chess, a home theatre system, and more—far exceeding our expectations. Only our two families were there that day, making the experience even more fantastic. The food was fabulous, and the staff were very friendly and attentive. We also enjoyed a pleasant walk around the bungalow. There’s a hot tub near the pool, which unfortunately wasn’t working, but it was still a nice and enjoyable spot

“A magical moment in the mountains”
The location of the bungalow was so beautiful and romantic. We were literally up in the mountains, and everywhere you look, its nature surroundings you. A little coxy home away from home. The staff makes you feel so welcomed. Home cooked meals are delicious. All thanks to the manager, yasok. Suben and shiva. Everything about this place is magical ✨️.

“Superb”
We had just finished walking all 300km of the mountainous pekoe trail so this was the perfect place to come and chill straight after. Loved the pool and the service, food and everything about this place. Felt like a very special place indeed.

“Great spot to stay in Galaha after the Pekoe Trail Stage 1”
This is one of the most unique stays I have had on all my travels. It is an old bungalow set on a tea plantation out in the jungle forest about 40min TukTuk ride away from Galaha. The room was lovely with a big comfy bed. Really hot water in shower. There was a TV room with reclining couches to relax in! And not to mention the infinity pool and outdoor jacuzzi. A delicious dinner of rice and curry was prepared along with a lovely omelette for breakfast. They even have a basic gym with excellent weights in it! I arrived in Galaha after completing the Pekoe Trail Stage 1 Hike and needed a place to stay. Deepthi the owner was amazing and helped to arrange a TukTuk out to Rockbourne Bungalow. It was the perfect place to relax and recharge to walk back the way of Stage 1 to Halantha the following day.. If anyone in Kandy is interested in the Pekoe Trail this bungalow is a gem to rest up for a night.
