Wake up in a traditional home located just 2.8 mi away from the noisy city. Listen to the chirps and songs at sunrise and observe an amazing variety of rare and colorful birds in this alluringand cozy atmosphere in tranquil surroundings. Experience the warmth and uniqueness of a family’s own house, immerse in the local habits and culture by participating in the daily life of a local. Eat their local food, ask for a cooking lesson, learn how to cook a complete meal on firewood in a traditional old kitchen built in the 19 th century, go back home and serve your friends at home your favorite “local dish” or take the trails the locals take and let the journey through this sweet and short beautiful place remain as memories to a traveler be cherished. A trip to the Kandyan Manor is an opportunity to feast on its rich, melting- pot cuisine, prepared by Suzy and her team. Two large rooms carefully furnished and decorated to fit as a double, triple or a family of four on request, preserving its charm, blending it to a touch of old and new décor. Two rooms interconnecting to make a family of five, unwind to a cool spirit of paradise, sharing an private bathroom. One vintage styled double or triple room cozily designed to make you feel at home, retaining the character and tranquility of those colonial days, attached is a small sitting area facing a small courtyard with an private bathroom. Two outside cottages dotted around the garden, built to embrace both modern comfort and profound sense of harmony with nature. Attached open air private bathrooms will make you stay memorable. Two rooms made by blending the old and new manor concept, both with four poster colonial double beds. Both rooms have attached en suite open air bath rooms. Embark on a journey of discovery in our little village called “ Yatiwawala” to observe the reawakening of a village and natural life alike. Stroll down enticing jungle byways and through the green paddy field to see the buffalo plowing and threshing the fields during the harvest, as the season demands. Along the way, see many different spices thriving in their natural element - goraka, nutmeg, cinnamon, cardamom, coffee, cocoa and black pepper, many valuable fruit and timber trees native to the shrub jungle. A few minute walk away from the Manor, visit the Ambalama, a place of shelter built by ancient kings for travelers to break journey, take rest and spend the night. People also exchanged goods from different localities and after befriending them. The Hunasgiriya mountain range will watch over you from a distance, adding an element of grandeur to the picturesque village scenery. An ideal walk for the artist, a photographer, an expert naturalist or a passionate bird-watcher, or you may simply be enamored with the wonders of everyday life.
Couples in particular like the location – they rated it 9.1 for a two-person trip.
