Farmstay holiday rentals in Uva Province

Great place and great welcome. Everything is simple in the rooms, there is nothing superfluous, clean and comfortable, and most importantly - a panoramic window, behind which there is a beautiful view of the valley and the 9 arch bridge. The owners are very friendly. For breakfast they serve their fruits, vegetables and delicious tea. It's just rubbish! Too bad we only stayed one night. I dream of returning again.

It's a beautiful stay located in a remote but serene location. The view from the balcony was amazing!! Place is well maintained and clean. The host was responsive and caretaker was friendly and catered to all our needs. Would love to visit again.

The villa was beautiful! Waking up to the beautiful views and waterfall in the distance was a dream. The host and everyone was extremely helpful and kind as well. Also they had very cute dogs. :) it was a great spot for relaxing and not too far from town, only a 700 ruppee ride away. And there was plenty of space for our group of 10, everyone had their own bed. The downsides were that the wifi didn’t really work, and it was a bit hard to get to the place — you have to walk down a narrow ledge and up steep stairs, so it’s not very accessible if you maybe have a disability. But the staff was great and guided us and helped with bags. So we didn’t have an issue really.

Depending on the type of person you are, you could either love this spot or not. We LOVED it as it had INCREDIBLY helpful staff who communicated well and couldn't do more to help fulfill any of our requests. The breakfast was delicious and an abundance of food provided in one meal. It is very safe and easy to go on walks around the area. It is private and located in the middle of tea fields. If you want hustle and bustle of a town, then this is quite far out of that. If you want modern and new, then this is not for you. But if you want peace, calm and lovely surroundings with cooler weather, then absolutely. We loved our stay and were very comfortable. The host organized our transfer from the station to the accommodation, and he was outstanding - a tour guide as well as the driver - he told us many stories of the area - so knowledgeable!! There are a couple of restaurants within walking distance - we went to Frostbite for dinner - and quirky place with really good food!!

Pradeepsetiyanake and his wife have been extremely friendly and accommodating hosts.. We immediately felt comfortable there, which especially contributed to the warm nature of the hosts. The rooms are simple but offer everything you need for a nice stay. In front of the room you can sit covered and enjoy nature. The garden and the covered dining/lounge are designed with a lot of love. In addition, there were many tips on what to do in the area (e.g. hikes in the Knuckles Range, visit to the fantastic Rathna-Ella waterfall, Raja Maha Viharaya (large and important Buddhist temple)). An atmospheric 2-hour sunrise boat tour on Lake Sorabora with impressive bird variety has also given us Pradeepsetiyanake for a very reasonable price. Well, and then the food: super tasty and inexpensive - we were always close to bursting!

Very clean and affordable place. Host is very kind and thoughtful through out our stay.

We had a really great time at Kottawatta village. The staff is very kind and the equipment perfect!! You will appreciate the calm and the good location near to the Uda walawe national park. The safari organised by the hotel is one of the best memory of our travel.

Awinco Guest House is a very cosy place, very close to the bus station (about 10 min walk) and railway station (15 min walk). The localization is really great right next to the tea factory and the hotel has a Mountain View. The more expensive rooms are very nice (we change the rooms as the cheaper one is rather only for one night as it is very dark). The owner is extremely nice and helpful. He help us arrange the tuktuk to Lipton's seat and gave us some tips about visiting other places near Haputale. The family is really sweet, the last breakfast for free. Good place to stay. We really enjoy our time there.

AMAZING place!!!! The coolest interiour, amazing staff, delicious food, amazing infinity pool. We had the best time here- wish we could have stayed forever. Would HIGHLY recommend!!

Very warm welcome in this guest house. The view is beautiful and the food is good. The rooms are very large and the beds too. The building is an old one and is very charming. The bathroom are simple but clean with hot water. Over all, the owner is very very friendly and gave us plenty of advice to discover the region. The lipton’s Seat is a pure beauty, one of our best walk in Sri Lanka with magical landscapes.

Nice accommodation in a good area. The staff were very helpful with our luggage and helping us check in. They also prepared a takeaway breakfast for us as we were leaving early on day of check out. The beds were large and comfortable. There was a slight lack of communication via messaging as I didn’t recieve any replies but the accommodation was easy to find and staff were very friendly and helpful on arrival. Overall we were happy with this stay and would recommend people to use in the future.

We’ve just left the treehouse chalet with the happiest of memories. The food was delicious (they fed our coeliac daughter incredibly well), the treehouse was gorgeous with views that are out of this world. The service and care was incredible. Aruns knowledge and passion for nature is amazing - he oozes love for what he is doing and passed it on to all of us. We swam in waterfalls, walked to the local village, saw the stars …. We were there for 4 nights - it went far too quickly. I highly recommend anyone who is interested in nature, calm surroundings to add this to their itinerary. You won’t regret it!

We had a great time. The accommodation is perfectly located for hiking, and has fabulous hosts who provided us great advice on the different hikes. Would definitely recommend.

Stunning location and property, we had the most glorious weekend here. If you’re looking for something special to relax this is the place to treat yourself. Loved every minute!

Incredibly friendly and accommodating hosts. Beautifull view over the valley with the city centre close by. Peaceful atmosphere and rooms as advertised and super clean. Would recommend to anyone looking to stay in Ella!

Our stay at this property was truly unforgettable! The location, perched on a scenic hilltop, offers some of the most incredible views we’ve ever seen. The atmosphere was peaceful and serene, making it the perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life. The property matched all the photos listed, and if anything, it exceeded our expectations. The stunning landscape and the beauty of the surroundings made our stay feel like a dream. While public transport options are limited, having a private vehicle is the best way to reach the property comfortably. Once there, you'll be able to fully enjoy the tranquility and breathtaking views. I highly recommend this property, particularly for families or groups seeking a peaceful retreat. We would love to return again in the future!
