We stayed here for three nights. The stay here was excellent and wonderful. Nice room with all the amenities, terrace with a wonderful garden around. The hosts are a nice and loving family. During my stay, it was my birthday. The hosts prepared a wonderful birthday surprise for me. I recommend everyone to stay here. The nicest place to stay during the trip

“A basic experience made special by the host family.”

Run by a delightful family who made us very welcome. The food was exceptional - home cooking at its best. We also enjoyed their company. They recommended a visit to the local lake which was very enjoyable at sunset.

An old- fashioned guesthouse, simple and quiet, the hosts too are polite and helpful in an older style. Far enough back from the road to cushion traffic noise. Relaxing to sit on the terrasse in front of your bungalow with a cup of tea.

Peaceful place, exceptional hosts and clean and comfortable room. Food was amazing. Spent lovely evening with the hosts chatting away. Very knowledgeable people, kind and accommodating in any of our requests. Thank you all for having us and we shall ssee you definitely next time again! Alessandra & Marc

“Lovely people but run down & not value for money.”

Fantastic people, we had some interesting & in-depth conversations on a range of topics.

Epic stay: run by some aerialist lovely brothers who made the stay. Highly recommended.

“Great place!”

Very kind hosts - it was a pleasure to chat to them. Lovely Sri Lankan food - thank you! Pretty garden with lots of birds. It was a great place to break our journey.

Nice and quiet place with green garden , singing birds, very relaxing. The host so friendly and helpful.

“Nice family and garden - OK for one night.”

The family that runs this place is nice and helpful. They provided us a huge portion of a meal for dinner when we said that we are hungry. The well-maintained garden (especially around the restaurant area) is nice and attracts a lot of birds.

Good👍

“Everything is so green and nice.”

The location was great, filled with plants and flowers. The host was very nice, he got us a car very early when we left because the area is remote so no ride apps working. Not luxurious but great worth for the money.

“Hidden Gem, Great place to stay!”

We couldn't find anywhere to stay in the town we ended up in at sunset, so found the nest on booking.com. The owner was so friendly and very accommodating, staying up for a late check in and ensuring we had dinner on arrival. Our room was comfortable and close to town. We also heard elephants nearby. Plenty of space for parking our tuk tuk onsite as well.

Absolutely the best part of staying at the Nest are people who manage this lovely guesthouse. They welcome you with a smile, cup of tea and great conversations. They even offered to join me on my trip to the indigenous people of the forest in Dambana. More places with atmosphere like that <3

“A clean guesthouse with super friendly, warm, and helpful owners, where you feel right at home.”

Everything! The Hosts are the nicest brothers! They help you with everything and make you feel like home. Also the food, the room, everything was perfect!

Great people, great food and calm location! Mohil can tell you a great amount on Sri Lanka's history - very interesting. A pity we stayed only one night.

“If visiting to see the Vedda tribe, be prepared for disappointment or to pay 10,000 rupees to have picture taken with th”

Friendly owners and food was nice. Interesting garden

“A heartwarming stay at the Nest”

Two very friendly older gentlemen run this accommodation. We were warmly welcomed. The lady of the house cooked delicious food and the breakfast was also good. A perfect stay for when you are late by Tuktuk to travel through the mountains to Kandy.

“Amazing stay & the best hosts!”

The owners of this place are absolutely brilliant! They are so friendly and so knowledgeable! They used to be tourist guides and really know everything about the area and also about the Vedda community. I really enjoyed our conversations. Also the food was delicious!

“The Nest is best!”

It was an exceptional homestay. We were a 7-person family group & found the rustic accomidation for 2 nights just just what we wanted. Close to town but quiet. We had dinner & and breakfast meals there which were great! Extremely helpful staff added to this wonderful experience.

“Hidden gem”

This place is absolutely amazing! The hosts are a such a lovely family. They welcomed us and right away offed a lunch. The food was so good so we had a dinner and breakfast too. We will make sure to come back and stay longer.
