One of the best stays of our 2 month trip in Sri Lanka! Best value for money. The room was spacious and clean, great shower with hot water, and breakfast could be enjoyed on the little veranda every morning. The bed was sooooo comfortable!! Location is a bit out of town which for us was ideal, since we enjoy going on walks and exploring our surroundings. The hosts were incredibly nice and attentive, and helped us to rent a scooter, and took us in and out of town when we needed. Sigiriya was just a short ~30min scooter ride away, Dambulla cave temple is just around the corner. For us this was the perfect end to our trip in Sri Lanka, thank you!!

A small number of beautiful lodges in beautiful green surroundings. Everything fits together perfectly and is of good quality. Very friendly and helpful owner and staff. The food is more expensive than outside but it is simply fantastic. We had one of the best vegetarian curry selection cooked after our preferences. The breakfast is also really good.

Less than a 5-minute drive from the city center, this hotel is nestled on a vast plain, creating a tranquil escape. Its location is convenient for Sigiriya (approximately a 30-minute drive), downtown Dambulla, and the cave temples. The room was comfortable, the amenities worked flawlessly, the garden setting was delightful, and the staff were warm and attentive. The breakfast was delicious and highly recommended! For such a reasonable price, with such a good accommodation and breakfast, and a prime location, it's truly excellent!

Dear Madhu and Sanjee, If I had to teach hospitality, you would definitely be the example! No words, how wonderful we felt our staying. The welcoming, the room, the surronding jungle garden with monkeys, the breakfast you made for us….the program you arranged and guided….( Sigiriya, Pidurangala, local market, roze quarts hills, cave temple)..We enjoyed so much! Thanks for sharing these experience with us!

The best thing on this accommodation are definitely the owners. So kind, so modest, happy and helpful people one would not believe. We stayed there just for one night and then we had to move to another city but the stay was nice, calm, clean and the breakfast was absolutely delicious. We could arrive after midnight and the owner welcomed us with open hands and also helped us to schedule a trip to safari, ordered a driver and that everything in couple of minutes. The next day we could leave a luggages there and come back next evening. 10/10. The owner also helped with the luggages on our way to the next bus and stayed with us till the bus arrived. Would recommend to everyone!

    The location of the farm was excellent, you will find yourself in places you would not come otherwise. Pradeep's place is very well maintained, we stayed in one of the cheaper rooms and they were quite basic but that's what we wanted. If you are up for more luxury there are four new rooms which are all very modern and super clean! The farm is great and staff super friendly and helpful. It was a great way to get a peek in actual sri lankan culture. Would definitely recommend going here!

    Very clean and comfortable, the staff were smiley and friendly, willing to help where able. The location is ideal for access to the busy centre but far enough away that you don't have the noise that goes with it. The beautiful views made the already enjoyable and filling breakfast, even better. AC and fan worked well!
