We had the most wonderful stay here. The hosts are very special people, who welcome you with open arms into their family home. The room was very comfortable and we slept so deeply! The garden is an oasis, full of birds and the most beautiful blooms. Don't hesitate to book 🥰. Thank you again for your kindness!

Lovely and peaceful homestay just outside Kandy. Perfect if you want to escape the crowds in Kandy and if you like to catch the train to Ella from Peradeniya station. The hosts are very kind and willing to help. They had cooked marvellous rice and curry for us. One of the best we had in Sri Lanka. The breakfast is also a delicious Sri Lankan treat. We stayed one night, but we would have loved to stay more. Highly recommend to stay a bit longer as the hosts also know a lot of non-touristic places to explore in the surroundings

Very friendly people, and beautiful location/room. The family makes you feel welcome and the garden view is amazing. We were even welcome at a little celebration that was going on and organized by the father of the family. We had a great time with him and his friends. Enjoy your stay I would say.

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.
