Very helpful host, gave us lots of tips and was very flexible about breakfast. The place is cozy and has a beautiful view, ideal for a hike on the Lovers leep and visiting the tea factory of Pedro.

“Mountain cabin atmosphere”
We had a lovely stay at The Paulwood Cabana—it felt just like being in a cosy mountain cabin. The atmosphere was peaceful and quiet, especially at night, which made for such a relaxing experience. The bed was really comfortable, and to top it all off, we were treated to a sky full of stars. A beautiful and serene place to unwind in nature!

Location great, near Lovers Leap Waterfall and high up on mountains so great views, if you take balcony Room. Paul arranged a smaller excursion to suit my budget which was nice. Being picked up from station was a great help, with a welcome tea. Owners flexible with breakfast timing to fit around my excursions. Their drivers was great and ensured I reached the train station to my next destination.

“Our stay was okay, but we had to switch rooms the first night, the shower flooded the bathroom, there was a sewage smell”
The breakfast was nice, which we appreciated.

“Did not live up to reviews, sadly”
It was clean enough and the location is very convenient for the Lover’s Leap waterfall / to see some of the beauty of the surrounding tea plantations, but to get to town it’s quite a jaunt. They were able to arrange a last minute transfer from Nanu Oya.

“Good quick stop”
Paul is a great, friendly and knowledgeable guy which helps make your stay a good one. The room is very quirky and small but you can see the lovers leap waterfall from the window! A little far from town and a different set up to some other places. Ok for a quick stop but not for relax and unwind. Would have liked more privacy and thicker curtains for street light.

“Fabulous host, great food and for the price it is amazing.”
The location is awesome. It is a little off the beaten track but a shop is nearby and transport links via the local bus are really regular and cheap! If you want peace and quiet and time to soak in the beauty of the mountains and tea fields then this is for you! Amazing walks and sunsets - My only regret is not staying longer
