The Location was good to travel to both Pidarangula Rock and Sigiriya Lion Rock. The owner is very hospitable. The food was good and a good range of alcohol was available.

the hospitality of the owner was amazing, the food was amazing and it was calm and peaceful. We tried the Srilankan rice and curry from the menu, it was so tasteful. This place is far better than any fancy hotel.

“Great location, wonderful host and excellent food.”
Our hostess was so thoughtful and kind. She was a lovely gentle, caring person who spoke good English. We were able to walk from the house up Pidurangala Rock before breakfast. We could see both rocks from the outdoor dining area. Delicious food too.

“Perfect.”
During our 2-night stay, we were welcomed very well. The host lady was very helpful and gave us good suggestions. We wanted to have a massage, she suggested a nice place. She took care of us with motherly instinct and kindness. Our room smelled clean. When we woke up in the morning, it was obvious that the floors had just been wiped. The garden is very pleasant, we sat in the evening and watched the stars. We loved it very much. Be sure to stay if you are on your way.

“Highly Recommend. Best place we have stayed in Sri Lanka”
Amazing host and great small hotel. Highly recommend. Wasanthi our host was incredible. Beautiful lady and fantastic cook. Great dinner no need to go anywhere else. Lovely breakfast. She was always there to greet us on returning. She gave us top tips. Place was clean but simple. Best location to be able to hike to both rocks easily. Hotel was at the base of Pidurangala and a 15 min walk to Lion rock.

“Recommend!”
The guest house was very close to Lion Rock. In the morning, I went out alone to watch the sunrise, and the lady from the guest house came with me because there was a leopard roaming around 🤣 — she was so friendly! The breakfast was excellent.
