    We had an amazing time, we were supposed to stay 2 nights and ended up staying 4 nights. The owner is very kind and helpfull, his wife is a GREAT cook and has the nicest smile (we highly recommend you have breakfast and dîner there) ! The place is comfy and peaceful, up in the highest village of Sri Lanka.

    We stayed for two nights and were truly impressed by the exceptional hospitality and kindness of the hosts. We joined the host for a tour of the tea plantations and waterfalls, and he took us to the best spots, ensuring we had an unforgettable experience. As two women traveling alone, we especially appreciated the owner’s attentiveness to our safety, including arranging a free taxi back to the guesthouse in the evening. The room was spotless and comfortable, with plenty of blankets to keep us warm on chilly evenings. The hot shower was a wonderful bonus, making our stay even more enjoyable.

    Unfortunately the friendly dog that some other traverllers has commented is no more :( she had past away few months back.

    Very nice homely feeling. Very good hosts, it is a family run home. This would be a very good Sri Lankan experience for if you are a tourist in Sri Lanka. Damayanti, the host is a excellent cook, she made very authentic delicious Sri Lankan meals. It is highly recommended to taste Sri Lankan food here.

    It is a fair journey away from Nuwara eliya, but they can help organise transport. A touch expensive for us budget travellers, but a fair price in Nuwara eliya, would book again if we come back. I hope the dog is still kicking!

    Very welcome host family … and dog. I loved the dog. Big pot of tea when we arrived, was absolutely amazing. Room was recently refurbished, and freshly painted. Really comfy bed with so much sheets for the cold mountains. Breakfast is worth the price, was huge with loads of fresh seasonal fruit, the best pancakes and smooth tea (we got extra tea!) organised us tuk tuks for getting into town, and organised us a tour of waterfalls and tea plantations for a fair price, the host dad was lovely and smiley! It is in the highest village in Sri Lanka so the views are incredible! The dog was a highlight, i hope he is doing ok cuz he is an old gentle soul.

    Excellent location in a very nice small village near Nuwara Eliya. Great family who made us feel home, with home cooked meals, super full breakfasts. Very comfortable bed, warm blankets!! We slept 9 hours. You can walk around in the village - also among the tea plantations. Stayed 2 nights, would stay here again!

    We loved our stay here, nestled away up in the tea plantations. The host family are lovely and were incredibly helpful. Home cooked breakfast and dinner were absolutely delicious. Possible to organise a tour of a nearby tea factory. Another highlight was simply walking around/to the nearby villages and soaking in the views. Highly recommend a stop here!

    The furniture in the house and the bathroom are a bit old and not in the best condition. Warm water was poor.

    The whole family is very friendly. We visited a tea plantation and made a tour to some waterfalls. The house is a bit outside in the mountains, but they always offered a free shuttle service to the town for food or any activities. We felt us like a part of the family and were allowed to use the whole house

    It is not a complaint but i did not know how to work the shower, so make sure you know before you get in

    This homestay was impeccable. Everything about staying here was to a very high standard. The food was delicious and substantial. It was lovely to eat with other back packers and converse. The owner kindly dropped us off at the bus station as we changed our ninds about getting a train at the last minute incaae we could not get a seat. I would have happily stayed longer but we was on a tight itinerary.

    The house is far from town, the owner offered us free transport twice a day but this turned out to only be at 8.00 Am and before 20.00, which he did not communicate with us. So if you don’t have a Tuktuk/bike you will can be stuck either in town or at the hotel

    Very kind lady, she welcomed us with tea and cake.
