Set within the forest it is an oasis of calm. The staff were friendly and keen to help. The accommodation is quirky, fairly basic but comfortable. The food was excellent and plentiful. There are a number of activities and excursions available, or you can simply relax on your veranda up in the trees. There are a number of chill out zones.

This is a lovely family business with the ever smiling, hard-working and charming Dylan at the forefront of providing all you need for a very comfortable stay. Beautiful views across the rice fields by day and, perhaps, the odd mischievous elephant at night. Absolute top marks for the whole family who are attentive to all your needs. The kitchen staff deliver delicious food across the day and the meals really are wonderfully presented. Could not ask for more, the whole arrangement, the family, and the staff are just full of genuine character. If you are coming for a National Park tour, then Dylan is superb at delivering a complete package to suit whatever your needs maybe. I must just add real extra praise for his hard-work, and non-stop consideration during our stay. He really is an outstanding host and business manager; you’ll struggle to meet better. Top-end rooms offer more space and comfort [there will be additional rooms soon] but all rooms come with the kind attention of your hosts. There are a couple of bikes for a pedal to the lakes, hike across the paddy fields, or take the dirt roads into a very rural surround. Lots of cute puppies on site, they do bark on the odd night but nothing too irritating. WiFi is patchy, but that should be expected out in wilds. Confucius says; the wise carry a big stick along roads filled with territorial dogs. Highly recommended!

This is a very private, hidden-away location in walking distance to the National Park. In fact, you can't get closer by staying anywhere else--and this means you save time by getting to sleep in during the morning. The host and owner, Leel, doesn't speak much English, but uses Google Translate to always help. The rooms have the best A/C, and with only a few bedrooms on the property, it's very private and great for bird-watching. Simple, efficient, and relaxing.

    The host was amazing and easy to talk to. Arranged diner for us when we arrived late in the evening. The room was clean and has a mosquito net. The homestay is a few minutes front the national park gate.

    Susil was a great host for us. He took time to talk with us and tell us about the surrounding area and some of the history of Sri Lanka. Made us beautifully cooked homemade meals with traditional ingredients. Very kind man that made our stay an extremely positive one. Hostel is in the most perfect location literally metres from the entrance of the national park.
