“Atmospheric location next to a stream in the woods.”
The cabin was very cozy. The bed was super comfortable. Even though it was cold and rainy outside, I was very warm and snug. Sandy, the host was very attentive and easy to communicate with. She is generous and kind, and it is obvious she cares for her guests.

“Unique wooden cottage, dark but cosy”
Unique wooden cottage outside of town, in the woods by a running steam. Lovely owner who was always on hand. Plenty of space.

“A stay to remember!”
If you're looking for something else than the regular hotels, consider staying here. This hand-made wooden cabin is located on a distant location in the woods, next to a small river. Temperature in Nurawa Eliya is much lower compared to other places in Sri Lanka, so no need for airconditioning. The sound of the little river next door ensures that you sleep like a baby. The owners live next-door and are very helpfull lovely people.

“A cozy and remote place”
The place is unique, surrounded by water and greenery. The house is made of wood and very cosy. The owner is a charming woman, who was always there to help. It wasn't difficult to get around from there too, though it felt very remote and serene. The weather was cool and rainy so it really was chilly in the evenings and nights, but we had more than enough blankets to sleep comfortably. It was a very special stay for us!

The owner (Sandy) is the sweetest person we met in our trip. She got us some welcome tea, and offered to cook dinner for us. The house is really well put together, a sweet little cabin in the woods, we felt really cozy and 'at home'

The kindness of the host (really good cooker), quiet place, good bed, the sound of water with the small river just next to the log, you can go by walk to Pedro tea factory and enjoy the tea fields view.

“Such a gem”
The property is such a little gem! A little (not so little) wood cabin in the nature. There’s a stream of water just behind and it’s very relaxing. The cabin is very comfortable, offers two double rooms downstairs and one upstairs. There a kitchenette, a fridge and even a hair dryer! All the amenities really. The owner is a fantastic lady! She is very nice and helpful and her garden is magnificent

This is the biggest surprise in my many years of traveling around all the countries of the world. the wonderful owner who made me feel like I was staying with my mother, took care of everything we needed. She cooked us a very tasty dinner and breakfast. I highly recommend this wonderful family to everyone. The accommodation resembles a mountain shelter, which additionally adds to the magic of this place. I definitely recommend it to everyone. I fell in love with this place
