Ask us on WhatsAppWe are a short drive from the centre of Nuwara Eliya in Sri Lanka's Central Province, on the hillside above the town, close enough for dinner in town, far enough for quiet and a view. Send us your arrival time and we will send directions and arrange a pickup.
The King Room, the Duplex Room and the Quadruple Room all look out over the valley. The Double Room with Garden View faces the flowering garden at the front of the house instead.
