“The property manager Madhu was a great host, and would go out of his way to make our stay comfortable.
He also made a lot of vegetarian dishes himself.
Highly recommended for a peaceful stay in a natural setting.”
“beautiful bungalow, awesome view, quiet naturey location, a beautiful waterfall in walking distance, and more places further around. Very nice couple that looks after the place and cooks. We had a lovely experience and would definitely recommend it.”
“Thumper's Cottage stands out as one of the best hotels I've visited recently. From the moment I stepped in, the ambiance and the welcoming behavior of the receptionists mesmerized me. The food was exquisite, adding an extra layer of delight to my two-day stay. Notably, the cleanliness of the hotel impressed me greatly. I highly recommend a visit here, and if I ever find myself in Sri Lanka again, Thumper's Cottage will undoubtedly be my first choice.”
“Aji's Fruit Farm is a unique place to stay. The cottage/bungalow has two bedrooms, complete kitchen facilities, air-conditioning and a washing machine!!! The wide verandah has comfortable table and chairs for relaxing and taking in the breeze. The cottage is situated amid grassy coconut groves on an award-winning fruit farm. Just meters away is the property lake front where you can swim. At the you have a lovely cabana, hammocks and swing (with outdoor restaurant under construction). Sunrise view from the cabana should not be missed followed by a delicious breakfast. Aji is a wonderful, thoughtful host. The accommodation is about 30 minutes from Uda Walawe NP, so within easy access, and a lovely peaceful alternative. We were sorry we could only stay one night.”

“The rainforest is superb, the views stunning and the treehouse was great fun. We expected all of those things but what we didn't expect was to meet the most amazing guy in Arun, the resident naturalist.
The highlight of our stay was the minutes and hours we spent with Arun. He is so knowledgeable and passionate about all animals and plants but he is also a real free spirit and general all round hero. He was fantastic with our boys and we all had such a fantastic time with him and learn so much from him.”
“It was very clean. Staff is supportive. Kind of deferent experience in the middle of lush green thick vegetation around gave us a feel like stay middle of a jungle. Caretaker was friendly and so helpfull. above all Home feel stay at affordable price. Gathering area with bbq, party space indoor outdoor play facilities are available for the guests.”
“The most amazing hosts and cottage! The room is so modern and has everything you need, from USB plugs to AC, fan and a waterfall shower! The bed is huge and so comfy! It is in a great location just off of the main road in a beautiful garden, and walking distance to the elephant transit home. What makes this place so amazing though are the family who run it. They are so warm and friendly and treat you like family. They bring you fresh juice, herbal tea every evening, and the mum cooks the most delicious breakfasts and dinners. The son carried my bag and walked to the main road with me and waited 1 hour with me to make sure I got on the bus okay. Best place I’ve stayed in the whole of Sri Lanka- highly recommend !!”
