This is honestly the best place to stay in the Gampola region. Clean, cozy rooms just next to the beautiful forest and wondefull hosts that make you feel like you're the part of their family and offer home cooked local dishes for dinner and breakfast. Host also offers tuk tuk to the Ambuluwawa Tower. Absolutely loved the hospitality, couldn't recommend more, just book it and enjoy!

We only stayed for 1 night but from the moment we entered the door, it was like being at home with family. The house is beautiful and Ayesha and her family were so kind! They fed us an amazing feast for dinner and breakfast the next day, some of the best food we have had in Sri Lanka. The views from the house are incredible, peace and quiet away from the bustle of Kandy, although only a short drive in if you want to go to the lake, temples etc.

Fantastic breakfast every day, Damika, Indra and Nirosh very exceptionally friendly and embraced our free-spirited children ;) Spectacular view from the terrace (you really can see deer). Nirosh took us down to the river and showed us how to catch fish and crabs, which the kids really enjoyed. Also, Peradeniya is a very nice area of Kandy.

It was really pleasant to live in Nishad's place. It is a clean and hospitable guest house located not far from Kandy. Pick it for rural tranquility, it's a great stop if you want to discover Kandy city and area around it. There is a room with AC, fibre optics internet for additional moderate price if you need it. Home owner and his family are very modest and kind people.

An absolute gem of a homestay. The hosts were friendly and helpful, the room and the bathroom — spotlessly clean, the bed — comfy, dinner and breakfast that the lady owner cooked for me — filling and tasty. What more is there to ask for?

The owner were very helpfull, they picked us from the busstation for free. It's possible to get tasty local food (breakfast, lunch & dinner). It's possible to fly the drone from the rooftop or doing Yoga. We would recommend the homestay.
