I was very happy staying at the Lake Cabin. Everything was excellent. Waking up early to the sounds of birds, sitting on the balcony to watch the sunrise, eating breakfast, and watching fishermen on the lake. Perfect!!! I felt relaxed and enjoyed every minute.

The location is perfect. Its near the main road and near any shops or restaurants you'd want to go to. The museum and old city are also within walking distance. I'd recommend arranging a tuktuk tour through the host.

great hosts who helped us with cycle hire for the ancient city and onward transport. The property is tucked away from the main road so is quiet but close to the ancient city entrance. Very reasonably priced for what you get.

The guest house is a great location, just down the road from the ancient city and I rented a bike to go and explore it. Food was amazing from the host, some of the best I had in Sri Lanka. I would definitely recommend a stay. Especially as a solo traveller it was a nice break for two nights.
