“A charming B&B, well-placed for sightseeing in the Cultural Triangle, overlooking the gorgeous Kandalama Reservoir. Simple airy rooms with large balconies and panoramic views of the hills, a swimming pool and leafy terrace add to the appeal. A great spot for enjoying Sri Lanka's abundant wildlife. ”

Hotel review

The hotel, unpretentious, with a pleasant atmosphere, comprises six air-conditioned rooms with large balconies and panoramic views of the hills of Dambulla and Mihintale. There are many birds, plus Grey Langur monkeys who sometimes invade the rooms. Bedrooms are clean , comfortable and airy. There are no set times for meals and you can eat on the terrace, by the pool or on your own balcony. If you want alcohol you will have to take your own. No corkage.
