Panoramic Mountain Views
Every room opens onto the green ridges of Ella Gap. The mist arrives in the morning. The stars arrive at night.

Breakfast looks out at the morning mist. Lunch is a slow Sri Lankan rice and curry. Dinner watches the valley turn blue. Everything is cooked to order from a small, hand-picked menu, local first, with a few familiar comforts for our long-haul guests.
String hoppers, coconut sambol, fresh fruit and a long pot of Ceylon tea, served on the terrace from seven.
A daily-changing spread of seven curries with red rice, the way it's been cooked here for thirty years.
Arrack tonic, a plate of devilled cashews, and a quiet dinner under the lanterns. Dietary requests gladly handled.
Candlelit dinners on your balcony, picnic hampers for hikes, and a packed breakfast for early-train mornings.
A safe, shaded play area sits between the pool and the lawn soft grass, picture books, a few wooden toys and toddler-sized chairs. Parents can keep an eye from the deck with a long lunch and a pot of tea while the little ones run their own quiet day.
