About this cottage rental

Imagine waking up high in the hills around Kandy, with cool mountain air, green valleys and the gentle sounds of village life outside your window.

Welcome to Eagles’ Nest, a peaceful two-bedroom countryside home created for travellers who want to slow down, breathe fresh air and experience a different side of Sri Lanka.

Your stay begins with the view. Step outside in the morning with a cup of tea or coffee and take in the surrounding mountains, greenery and valley landscape. Depending on the season and weather, the hills may be covered in soft morning mist, creating a beautiful, ever-changing view from the house.

This is not a busy city hotel. Eagles’ Nest is located in a quiet, authentic village environment where you can experience the natural rhythm of rural Sri Lankan life. You may hear birds in the morning, see local people going about their daily activities and enjoy the peaceful atmosphere that makes the countryside so special.

During the day, there is plenty to explore. Nature lovers can take walks through the surrounding countryside and enjoy the nearby mountain trails. One of the highlights is the walk to a secluded mountain lake, where you can spend time surrounded by forest and nature. The nearby tea-growing areas also offer an opportunity to experience the beautiful landscape and history of Sri Lanka’s hill country.

If you prefer a slower day, you don't have to go anywhere.

Stay at the house, read a book, enjoy the view, prepare a meal, sit on the veranda or simply watch the clouds move across the mountains. Eagles’ Nest is equally suited to adventure and doing absolutely nothing.

The home has two bedrooms, making it comfortable for couples, families and small groups travelling together. The living spaces are designed to let you enjoy the surrounding scenery, while the kitchen gives you the freedom to prepare your own meals during your stay.

For guests who would like to experience authentic Sri Lankan food, locally prepared meals can also be arranged. There is something special about enjoying a traditional Sri Lankan meal in the countryside, surrounded by the same mountains and greenery that you have been exploring during the day.

Evenings at Eagles’ Nest are peaceful. As the light fades over the hills, the atmosphere becomes quiet and relaxed. Enjoy a cup of tea, talk with your travelling companions, listen to the sounds of nature or simply sit and take in the view.

For hikers and outdoor lovers, the location provides a wonderful base for exploring the surrounding countryside. For couples, it offers privacy and a chance to disconnect from the pace of everyday life. For families, it provides space to enjoy nature together. And for longer-stay guests, it can become a comfortable temporary home from which to explore Kandy and the surrounding mountains.

One of the most memorable parts of staying here is that the experience changes with the weather and the season. Sunny mornings bring clear mountain views. Cloudy days create a mysterious atmosphere across the hills. Rain brings out the deep green of the countryside, while mist can make the mountains feel almost dreamlike.

Eagles’ Nest is especially suited to travellers who value nature, peace, authenticity and experiences over luxury and crowds.

You are close enough to explore Kandy and its attractions, but far enough away to return to a quieter world at the end of the day.

Come for the mountains.
Stay for the village life.
Wake up to the views.
Take a walk through nature.
Taste Sri Lankan food.

And leave with a different memory of Kandy — one that goes beyond the usual tourist experience.

Eagles’ Nest is your peaceful mountain escape in the heart of Sri Lanka’s countryside.

It was a big pleasure to have a stay at this house. The location and views are breathtaking, there was no morning or evening in this villa without saying 'oh what a beauty!'. The house is very clean and comfortable, kitchen is perfectly equipped. We had a time of our life here and for sure would come back. Thank you for our wonderful days here. Wish all the best to your family!

Schönes Haus mit fantastischer Aussicht. Man kann sich bei Bedarf von dem Verwalter Janaka bzw. seiner Frau lecker bekochen lassen, was in Anbetracht der abgelegenen Lage sehr angenehm ist.

The views, the food, the tranquility at the Eagle’s View Nest were everything we had been looking for and more. My wife and I had been to Sri Lanka once before for a weekend and we knew we wanted to come back. We had stayed north of Kandy last time and just happened upon the Eagle’s Nest View in our searches. We could not have found a better place. About an hour outside of Kandy, the location is breathtakingly beautiful. The back of the property looks over the hills and beyond. It was a bit rainy when we were there, but I love clouds and became quite familiar with them during our week there. The property has three patios: one glass enclosed, one open air, and the third on the second floor that is perfect for stargazing. The caretakers, Janaka and his wife, really deserve that name. He drove us where we wanted to go in his tuk-tuk (as well as to places we did not know about) and his wife fed us wonderful meals. The owners were very helpful and kept in touch to make sure we had everything we needed. All in all, we had a great time and I highly recommend this location.
