A scooter was prepared and given to walk around Sigiriya the next day. Highly recommend.

Located 1.3 km from Kada Panaha Tank, Corner Cottage - Anuradhapura offers accommodation with a terrace, as well as a garden. It is set 1.9 km from Kumbichchan Kulama Tank and offers a 24-hour front desk. The guest house provides rooms with air conditioning, free private parking and free WiFi. My stay at Corner Cottage will remain a positive memory of my time in Sri Lanka. Gihan and his wife truly care for all of their guests, looking after their wellbeing and also allowing for independence and privacy. It felt to nice to be well cared for, especially when traveling alone. Gihan can help arrange tours and activities and will take you himself in his Tuk Tuk when available. They have bikes for hire and I enjoyed riding all around Anuradhapura a couple of times. Their food is amazing! In the past they owned a restaurant and it shows. A huge variety and the best food I’ve had in Sri Lanka. I am gluten intolerant and they were very accommodating to my diet. You can tell they care a lot about their business, investing in it and caring for their clients. Extend your stay, you won’t regret it. There’s much to see In Anuradhapura and you’ll not want to leave Corner Cottage.

Featuring views of the pool, all units in the property come with private entrance and a pool with a view. A terrace with an outdoor dining area and mountain views is offered in each unit. At the guest house, all units are equipped with bed linen and towels. Beautifully restored villa with three lovely guest rooms. The owner has used his artistic skills to make this one of the most enchanting boutique property anywhere. The breakfasts were delicious and the location is a short tuk tuk ride to the lake, downtown and nearby restaurants. Even comes with a small pool to cool off in on those hot days. Highly recommended!

Some units in the guest house have private entrance and are fitted with desk and wardrobe. Some of the units have a cable flat-screen TV, a fully equipped kitchen with a microwave, and a private bathroom with a bidet and a hair dryer. I suggest everyone to stay here once if you are planning to stay in Kandi.... The owner is so kind that I can't explain. You can explore the entire Kandy under the guide of this owner with a minimum budget.

We joined her cooking class. They using most of spices and vegetables they own farm and garden. They planted many fruits ( mango , banana, guava, etc..). It’s a shame we have to leave this paradise. Definitely we will come back next year.

Set in Kandy and only 2.3 km from Kandy City Center Shopping Mall, Mystique Hideout offers accommodation with mountain views, free WiFi and free private parking. This recently renovated guest house is located 2.6 km from Bogambara Stadium and 2.8 km from Sri Dalada Maligawa. Featuring family rooms, this property also provides guests with a terrace. The house is clean and fresh, a home away from home. Raj is a gem of a man! Knowledgeable and helpful in your needs. You could say he's sweeter than the sweetest tea. 🍵 The location is away from the busy centre which makes for a relaxing retreat. The housekeeper he has is friendly and the breakfast is served with a smile and is finger licking good. If you need anything like you're laundry doing then the team are happy to help. I arrived drained and I left mystified! ✨️

Featuring a private bathroom with a bidet and a hair dryer, units at the guest house also have free WiFi, while selected rooms here will provide you with a balcony. At the guest house, the units are fitted with bed linen and towels.

À la carte and Full English/Irish breakfast options with pancakes, fruits and juice are available. The traditional restaurant at the guest house serves Asian cuisine, and is open for dinner and lunch. The location is really nice as it is a bit away from the main toad (5min walk). The hosts are the nicest guys, which were ready to arrange everything we have asked for. They have arranged a safari in Kaudulla and then dropoff at the next hotel we were staying. They prepared us the most delicious curry and rice for dinner. Breakfast was also amazing, Srilankan’s pancakes and roti, fresh fruit and fresh juice. I recommend this hotel to everyone and we were sad that couldn’t stay for more nights.
