Our homestay is nestled in the famous " Hanthana" mountain range where you can relax and enjoy nature. You can wake up to the beautiful Mountain View ( 'Adams peak), hear birds singing and breathe fresh air all day. Even though it feels far from the busy city, it’s easy to get here with the public bus. Within a 6 km radius, you can explore the prestigious University of Peradeniya, the lush Peradeniya Botanical Gardens, the breathtaking Ambuluwawe Tower, the cultural heart of Kandy City, the exquisite wood-carved Embekke Devalaya, the scenic Hanthana Mountain range, and peaceful meditation centres—all easily accessible from our homestay. Whether you want to rest, explore, or just enjoy the calm, this is the perfect place for you.
Your host, Michael, is passionate about making every guest feel at home. With a friendly smile and a wealth of local knowledge, he is always ready to share travel tips, recommend hidden gems, and even help you plan your day. We are here to make your stay comfortable, memorable, and truly personal.
Our homestay is set in a friendly and peaceful neighbourhood where life moves at a gentle pace. Surrounded by greenery and fresh air, the area offers a safe and welcoming atmosphere, perfect for morning or evening Walks. You’ll find small local shops just a short walk away. With easy access to public transport, you can enjoy the calm of our neighbourhood while staying connected to the city’s attractions."
