Very welcoming staff, beautifully decorated reception room. Fun to stay in the Royal Tent, plenty of space and beautiful bathroom. Great facilities in room. Very pretty gardens with two tortoises, swimming pool and ornamental ponds. Stunning views on two sides. Really enjoyed being up out of the town. Staff very friendly and helpful and organised Tuktuks down to Kandy (10 mins) and back.

Unique lovely old property. Staff were wonderful and extremely attentive. We loved the location but it is not that central to everything so some people might find this a negative factor. Breakfast was amazing!!
No power points on the bathroom and very few in the room. Had to plug in to where the bedside lamp is and kneel on a pillow to blow dry my hair. Bedside lamp kept cutting in and out then noticed the wires were exposed. Lamp way to big for the bedside table so I removed it and solved three problems at once :). Very minor issues and would not effect my recommendation to stay.

Clean, functional, friendly staff, air conditioned, mosquito net on bed
1.Location a bit remote but good if you want to relax at the villa mainly, though property arranges for tuktuk if you need to get to city center so it's just 15mins away from there
2. overpriced - that was my main gripe, for what it charges it failed to give value
3. small dinner and breakfast menu
