Amazing place to stay, with lovely welcoming staff, especially Sameera who is the caretaker. All the staff are very hospitable and kind. The garden is very well maintained and you can see people working hard to upkeep. Don't miss going to Moon plains which is just five mins away from the back door (staff guided us). It is 10 mins away from the Gregory lake and you can easily get tuk-tuks once you step out to the main road which is couple of mins away. The balcony gives a nice country side view. The breakfast is amazing. Glad we did not book the usual hotel stay in Nuwara Eliya.

Tried very hard to think what we did not like. Just can't think of anything.

There are only three rooms, two on the ground floor and one on the first floor, so the villa is quite peaceful and quiet (except some barking dogs around :-)). From the balcony on the first floor, there are nice views thanks to the surrounding tea plantations. The host and the staff were very kind, helpful and flexible regarding the breakfast time. They also prepared a packed breakfast for us when we were leaving early for Horton Plaines. We also received a set of teas as a farewell gift. They accept cards.

On the ground floor, there is a common kitchen corner and living space where breakfast is served. Unfortunately, there is only 1 table for 6 people, which causes misunderstandings when all guests want to have breakfast at the same time. Although the upper room has a capacity of 4 people, some of the equipment is only for 2 guests (mugs, bedside tables and lamps). The bathroom and fittings are quite tired and need some repairs and renovation. Thanks to the heater the room was quite warm, but we were a bit fighting with hot water.

Really friendly staff who made us tea and breakfast. Rooms are very 'English' which is a nice novelty and they were really comfortable with nice views of the garden . The showers were hot and really powerful which was good after spending time in other areas of Sri Lanka. Overall really enjoyed staying at this property.

It is a bit further out from the likes of the Grand and the main area but you can walk 45 mins to Themparadu which does amazing food, and you can easily find a tuktuk driver to take you places. The Indian at the Grand was also well worth a visit for food!

Everything was super Neat and clean. Had all amenities we needed!! It’s close to the Nuwaraeliya town!! Beautiful surroundings with Tea gardens around the property. Vinu the caretaker was really caring, helpful and most importantly he was really attentive to all our queries!! They do provide you with a free tea plucking shoot!! Do not forget to make a use of it and get the experience!

The staff and its service was fantastic, from the first to the last minute. We wanted Breakfast at 6a.m., no problem. The next day at 9 a.m., no problem. The breakfast portions are huge. We got great insights.and information what to visit for sight seeing and so on (especially tea factory). We liked the style of the room. Parking was available. You can reach the accommodation even without having an offroad vehicle. It's quite and the staff was.very friendly. We would recommend this accommodation to our friends. By the way, they accepted credit card as payment.

Nothing to complain about.

The hotel was converted from a house. It has a big garden and a common area with fully fitted kitchen. The host (Shameera) is very nice and helpful. He was also very communicative before and during our stay. Breakfast was also decent.

We booked the room without window, which may be a mistake. Although Nuwara has cooler climate compared to the rest of Sri Lanka, it gets stuffy and hot in the room. It is also worth flagging that the hotel is not close to the city centre so it takes extra time if you would like to go to town.

Overall experience was fantastic from the moment I checked in. Ishaan was both friendly and attentive. The room was huge and offers a fantastic view of the tea plantation and surroundings. Room was clean and everything was well-provided. The location is also a short distance from the city, which is convenient but also avoids all the noise. Breakfast was great and the staff was there to attend to us every moment.

- super friendly and very attentive host - Gave us local tea as a gift - Welcomed us with lovely tea and biscuits - Checking up on us and making sure we had everything we needed - Room was clean but could need a little renovation here and there - location is very good, just a quick walk away to the lake and surrounded by tea plantages

- Maybe something was off with ventilation, because the bed sheets felt damped and kind of smelt moldy

The hosts were very warm and welcoming. The house had a pretty estate house look, and is located amidst the tea garden. There is a lawn beside the house, with a table setup to have tea, and also a few hammocks and a bed. Since we had to leave early, they provided us packaged breakfast, and complimentary Ceylon tea.

The buildings beside the estate are a bit ugly and spoil the landscape. But i dont think it's under the owner's control. There is no access to the tea plantations if anyone wishes to.

Amazing place with a nice garden and wonderful staff. Breakfast was nice, the room is spacious and has a heater so it's always warm and there is hot water in the shower. View from the terrace is beautiful. And they gave me a thoughtful present at the end, a bag with local tea, just amazing. Would definitely recommend it
