The stuff were super friendly, they helps us organise a Safari trip to see elephants, location perfect for hiking to Pidurangala. Breakfast was tasty!

Stayed in March 2025

host was surprised to see us as we had booked only an hr beforehand but all was well and had a cup of coffee made for us in no time . Unfortunately the option for dinner was not offered but she walked us only 50m down the road to a family run restaurant which was good enough for our needs. Room was fine, clean with AC . struggled with the mosquito net due to bad positioning (needs to be sited centrally over bed ) and AC blows directly onto the bed so took a while to figure out how to not have the net blowing directly onto the body …. this was the only issue we had . Everything else was great , the hubby was a diamond and a true gentleman who walked us to the start of the mini hike up the rock at 5.15am to ensure we were safe ( elephants ) please remember to give a tip for this kind service …. Apparently we were the first in years to do so which we think is bad form ! breakfast was delicious and filling and set us up for our cycle onwards . Our host even drove his bike a few km down the road to catch us up to give us a plug adapter we had left in the room ! what a star . the location is fantastic if intending to climb the pidurangala rock for sunrise and unmatched vista of the more well known Lion rock . everyone else was having to catch a taxi or tuk tuk from town to the starting point and for us it was literally a 5 min stroll ! town is obviously a few km away so if wanting the nightlife then factor in a tuk tuk ride there and back .

The owners are super friendly. Location is in the nature next to thr Pidurangala Rock and Lion Rock! Food was amazing. Best kottu we had of the trip!

In all honesty it was just such amazing value for money and location that we cannot complain about anything

Our first home stay and value for money was amazing. The couple were lovely and kind and helpful. They put themselves out for us to the extent of getting up at 5 to show us the way by torch light to the mountain. They provided a lovely breakfast and dinner was really fantastic. Lovely home cooked SriLanksn food.

I'm not going to say everything was perfect in this place, the only thing inconvenient is that there is wild elephant near the neighborhood, so it is not recommended to walk around after dark

Apparently the landlord is not good at photography, I chose this homestay simply because it is close to the lion rock. But when I got to the place, it is a very beautiful and clean yard, much more beautiful than the photo uploaded by the landlord. (Please look at photo I uploaded) Although the landlord was not so good at English, but both of them were patient and communicated with us very well. The landlord accompanied us to the foot of the Pindurangala view point since there are wild elephant during dawn, every time we returned to the homestay, landlady was waiting, smiling happily, treating us with three cups of cold green orange juice. My wife said during the whole Sri Lanka trip, this is the only place that she felt like wanting to go back to. The landlord helped arrange the safari to Eco park, the taxi to Polonaruwa, all the driver they introduced to us are so nice and worth trusting.

Sweet and helpful owners. Short walk to pidurangala (and sigiriya if you plan on doing both). Helpful with dinner and breakfast.

Clean comfortable homestay in a fantastic peaceful location a few minutes walk from Pidurangala rock which makes a climb for sunset or sunrise very easy. The hosts were lovely and the breakfast tasty & plentiful

We loved everything! The location is perfect, very close to Pidurangala rock and walking distance to Sigiriya. What makes it so special are the hosts: they are so nice! We had also a delicious dinner and breakfast home cooked. I totally recommend this place to anyone that wants to experience the real Sri Lanka. Thank you for making us feel at home!

By far the friendliest people! The couple that runs the place are so welcoming, always willing to help and provide you with anything that can make your stay more comfortable. The best kottu we had in Sri Lanka! The green orange juice is a must! And all made with love and served with a huge smile! It really felt like home! Another big asset is the location: just 5 minutes walking distance from Piduringala rock, 20 minutes away from the entrance of Sigiriya site. Super quite, definitely NOT TOURISTY (far from the busy area). We can't thank you enough for this unforgettable stay! Take care and see you next time!

Very nice and quiet place, attractively situated between Sigiriya and Pidurangala. The owner was super nice and we had a delicious breakfast. We arrived with the bikes and there was also space to store them safely. Highly recommended!

Nothing

This is the best guest house in our journey. We hoped to stay longer. Even though this stay is surrounded by nature, there were no inconvenient. (For example, hot water was available, and the room was clean.) The owners served perfect Kottu for dinner and took us to Pirdungala Rock to see the sunrise!

The room I had originally booked was undergoing some repairs but the one I stayed in was also perfectly fine.

Lovely family, beautiful food and fantastic location. I arrived late and they happily made me a delicious kitty, met their daughter with children - honestly felt at home and very welcomed. It could not be closer to the Piduangala trail

Beautiful homestay and dedicated hosts, all surrounded by greenery just a few steps away from Pidurangala Rock! The hosts welcomed us and pampered us with delicious food, the best so far in Sri lanka! You will be rewarded by the tranquillity and love that this homestay has to offer!

It felt like being home 🙏🏻 The owners were super nice and I really recommend you to have dinner there. Accommodation is modest, but has everything you need and is a good value for the money. It has AC! 👌🏽 Also de location si very convenient if you want to hike Pirundangala stone (5 min by foot, and you will avoid taking the tuk tuks as they charge you double than usual). The owner even walked us early in the morning to the place 🙏🏻😊 THANK YOU A LOT !! You were amazing ❤️

good location

If you go into the town you have to get tuk tuk back after dark due to elephants. Nearest shop is 30 mins walk away.

The hosts were very friendly and helpful with planning activities, they also cooked dinner for us one night. It is in a good location for sunrise hike of Pidurangala 5 min walk. Aircon was great in the heat.

Everything was simply amazing, from the location of the homestay, right next to Pidurangala, to the amenities. But above all, what makes the stay in this homestay memorable is the hosts Puspa and Siri. They are a wonderful couple who will fo anything possible, so that their guests feel like at home. Puspa's cooking is simply phenomenal, don't miss out on her Kottu. I was even invited to celebrate Siri's birthday, together with the rest of the family. Truly wonderful people in a lovely homestay.

This homestay is amazing, the hosts are very friendly, welcoming and helpful. It is a short walk to the start of Pidurangala Rock trail which means it is perfect for sunrise/sunset climbs. Quiet, peaceful, remote location in the jungle. We had one of the best Kottu's of our trip courtesy of Pushba which came with an incredible coconut curry.
