At the homestay, units are fitted with a desk. With a private bathroom fitted with a shower and slippers, units at the homestay also have free WiFi. At the homestay, units are equipped with bed linen and towels. This place was incredible. From the moment we arrived we felt relaxed and comfortable. The gardens are absolutely gorgeous and due to the heavy rain when we visited we spent a lot of time drinking tea and sitting on the covered porch. The hosts were very attentive and available but not over bearing. They gave us tuk tuk rides at a good price to pidurangala rock and Sigiriya rock. The room was spotless and so comfortable. We’ve been in Sri Lanka now for 2 weeks and this was our favourite accommodation.

The homestay specialises in a continental and Full English/Irish breakfast and breakfast in the room is also available. As an added convenience, Pidurangala View Treehouse offers packed lunches for guests to bring on excursions and other trips off-property. Wonderful location and hosts. These are hard working people that are doing their best to make people feel welcome and comfortable. Both of which I did.
