The Old Manor Guest House is nestled in a peaceful, leafy residential part of Weligama, just a few minutes from the town center and the beach—but tucked away enough to offer true tranquility. The neighborhood is surrounded by swaying coconut palms, lush paddy fields, and the distant hum of village life, where you’ll hear birdsong in the morning and the occasional bicycle bell from friendly locals passing by. A short stroll or tuk-tuk ride brings you to Weligama Bay, known for its golden sands, gentle surf, and iconic stilt fishermen. You’ll find cozy cafés, surf schools, fruit stalls, and little boutiques dotted along the coast. The vibe is laid-back and welcoming—perfect for slow travel, spontaneous adventure, or simply unwinding. Nearby, you can also visit Midigama’s surf points, Mirissa’s whale watching harbor, or explore inland gems like local temples and tea plantations. And when you return, the peacefulness of our neighborhood will feel like your own private retreat.
