It rained almost without stopping during our stay at Lake Cabin. However we had a happy time in the care of our excellent host who made us welcome and helped us find an excellent local place to eat as well as arranging a tour of the lake where we saw several elephants. There were good choices for breakfast. The lake view from the veranda was stunning with so many birds.

I recommend 100% to stay at this lovely family place :) thank you !

Room is very big, with comfortable beds. Very quiet location. Hot water works very well, there is even a toothpaste. WiFi works very well. We had no mosquitoes. To the historical part you can cycle by bicycle , there is a path, you don’t have to cycle on the highway. The juices are very tasty.

The first time I stayed here was in 2016 and I love to return to this place to Amma Vasa, Samal, and now Lilly the dog! They welcomed us like their own family and I'm writing this now with wet eyes. The place itself is something you are searching for in the journey: clean, simple, and comfortable. The location is great also, just 5 minutes from the Ancient City and the lake by bike, that can also rent there. The hosts also helped us get our clothes to the laundry and dropped us near the only working restaurant even though it was late and heavy raining. Thank you from the very bottom of my heart. Best wishes and blessings from Arina, Igor, Dasha and Gor. We will be back!

Where do I begin. The Clay Hut Village is a magical oasis in the heart of Polonnaruwa. The host and his mother were the most generous and kind hearted people we have come across in Sri Lanka. The dinner was incredible and the village itself plays hosts to families of Gray Langurs and Toque macaque and of course Charlie the loyal Labrador. It’s extremely close to the historic Polonnaruwa city and the hosts sorted a lovely evening at the lake. Ask about the local bakery and the local swimming spot. You won’t be disappointed! Thankyou for everything!
