Property info

No.39 Galle Fort, an atmospheric three-bedroom Dutch colonial townhouse, sits at the heart of Galle’s magnificent 17th century colonial fortress, on Sri Lanka’s south-western coast. Redolent of the colonial era, the villa’s capacious size, graceful period features and striking custom-made furnishings paint a picture of the past whilst its well-appointed bedrooms, comfortable lounges and modern facilities lavish it with every essential mod con. Ideal for families and groups of friends looking to stay right in the heart of this historic site, this staffed heritage house is mere footsteps away from the fort’s landmarks, eateries and boutiques. Please note: No. 39 Galle Fort is a 3-bedroom villa that can accommodate up to 6 guests. Guests booking the 4-person rate will have access to 2 bedrooms (1 bedroom will be locked)

Neighborhood info

No. 39 Galle Fort is located mid-way along Lighthouse Street, in historic Galle Fort, just 150 metres from the grass-topped western-facing ramparts and a further 200 metres from the town’s famous international test cricket stadium. The fort is a world heritage site and dates back over 400 years; a walk along its narrow cobbled streets reveals the fascinating hybrid architecture of three colonial eras – fretwork-fringed and pillarred Dutch abodes, British-era monuments, ochre-hued spice warehouses and interesting museums showcasing the fort’s rich history. There are many restaurants and cafes, as well as boutiques selling handicrafts, delicate lacework, glittering gems and other evocative souvenirs. Within 15 kilometres are a selection of mesmerising beaches, tranquil lagoons and historic temples.
