We had a fantastic stay in this beautiful place. The little house is very beautiful and creatively built, and we loved sitting outside and watching all the birds in the day and the fireflies at night. The food prepared by Thushan's wife is some of the most delicious food we've eaten in Sri Lanka, and for a very good price. Thushan was a wonderful host, from picking us up and dropping us off at the bus stop on his motorbike, to taking us on an adventure to see the local sights. We loved visiting the nearby temple ruins, and cooling off in the waterfall afterwards. I would highly recommend this place as a stop off between Dambulla and Kandy, or a base to explore the Dambulla region. If you want to get away from the busy tourist areas and experience excellent Sri Lankan hospitality, this is the place!

Loved everything

Probably the best accommodation we have had during our stay in Sri Lanka ! We loved everything about this place! Perfect location to relax (you ll hear the sound of birds on the morning), very cute little house for 2 people, comfortable and well decorated. Good food, and last but not least, an incredible host! Thank you Tushan for your warm welcome and for the morning hike. We highly recommend this place!

The hospitality was exceptional. The staff were warm, welcoming, and attentive, ensuring that every moment of my stay was comfortable and memorable. The accommodations were not only cozy but also beautifully integrated into the environment, with stunning views right outside the window. Whether you’re a nature lover, a hiker, or just someone looking to recharge, The Forest Edge is the perfect place.

A very remote and romantic location to escape to. We drove a rented tuk tuk there and it was easy to find despite its location. Upon arrival we were greeted and welcomed warmly by the husband and wife who run the property. The food they provide is excellent and it is great to sit outside in the evening to watch the wildlife.

Just come without expectations. You will be amazed and pleasantly surprised. It is not for people searching for luxury or extra comfort but for a unique experience

in the middle of the forest, pure nature, there are animals like frogs, monkeys, cows and birds. NAtural hut with no AC, just fans and roof ventilation. Very unique style. Breakfast and hospitality was great

A magical place run by great people. We booked one night here, but we really enjoyed it and stayed here another night. A place surrounded by nature, about 20 minutes from Dambulla. The guys are really helpful, even for a super dinner in the forest or to get to the top of the mountain opposite! A great family <3

We checked into forest lodge and were welcomed with Sri Lankan tea and sweet treats, immediately we felt welcomed! The accommodation was amazing even better than the photos and super clean. We had both dinner and breakfast here and both homemade and delicious. In the morning we were taken on a trek and saw sunrise! Nothing was too much here and we had the best time! Would highly recommend

My recent stay at The Forest Edge Hotel was an enchanting escape into tranquility. Nestled in a serene area, this hotel offers a refreshing break from the hustle and bustle of city life. From the moment I arrived, I was greeted with the warmth of rural hospitality and the allure of village charm. One of the highlights of my stay was undoubtedly the breakfast. The spread offered at The Forest Edge Hotel is simply delightful. From freshly baked pastries to hearty omelets, there was something to satisfy every palate. The quality of ingredients and the attention to detail truly set this breakfast apart, making it a memorable start to each day of my stay. The ambiance of the hotel exudes a cozy village feeling, allowing guests to unwind and reconnect with nature. Surrounded by lush greenery and tranquil surroundings, I found myself immersed in a sense of peace and relaxation throughout my stay. It's the perfect retreat for those seeking a break from the chaos of urban life.
