apartment with absolutely stunning views. The rooms are very large and comfortably. It's can accommodated group of eight people. The hosts, who live downstairs, were incredibly kind and welcoming, making our stay even more enjoyable. The location is at one of the highest points in Sri Lanka, and it's definitely worth the trip for the scenery and peaceful atmosphere. Highly recommended

Staff - friendly, super attentive to details, down to earth and make hosting you seem a pleasure. Food- absolutely 💯 incredible. From the fresh produce, to great choices, lots of fruits and vegetables, stunning attention to details on their presentations. The fact it was delivered and setup in the cabana just made this an unforgettable setup. Candle lit dinner was the best meal & setup we had during our whole stay in Sri Lanka. Room - beautifully constructed, no expenses spared, no cutting corners. Quality products have been used to create beautiful rooms, all just stunning,no details forgotten. Beautiful furniture, felt very special and bespoke. Garden- landscape was well maintained, beautiful flowers, trees and bushes. Other - thank for you arranging the lodgings and food for our driver too! Activities- nice and quiet area,but still nice walk to mall, park, markets and the old post office nearby. Keep doing what you do , lovely to see such a beautiful spot , staff with smiles on their faces every time. Thank you for the fruit and delicious sandwich for our drive back to Colombo

This hotel is a little paradise surrounded by lush green tea fields. Everything is outstanding: the check-in with a cup of tea from the local factories, the spacious and clean rooms, the delicious home-cooked curry for dinner, the nice staff and the breakfast, where everything is homemade, too. 10 Points for the homemade coconut jam!

This cottage stay was everything I could have hoped for! Perched in the hills, it offered breathtaking views that were a treat to wake up to every morning. The serene atmosphere made it the perfect escape from city life. The breakfast was absolutely delicious—fresh, hearty, and full of local flavors. Ask for the Sri Lankan breakfast; it was amazing!! The cottage itself was cozy, clean, and well-maintained, with thoughtful touches that made it feel like home. If you’re looking for a peaceful getaway with amazing scenery and tasty meals, this is the spot. Highly recommend!

A return visit to this charming colonial bungalow after a few years was just as delightful as I remembered! The rooms are clean and comfortable as always, and the fireplace added a cozy touch. The staff was friendly and helpful, and the service of Waruna was very very good! Ensuring a pleasant stay. The location is excellent; within easy walking distance to Nuwara Eliya city and surrounded by so much to do in the neighborhood. I completely enjoyed my stay.

Kent Cottages in Nuwara Eliya deserves a big high-five! Mr. Nalaka, the caretaker, made our stay feel like a breeze – super friendly vibes. The Bungalow itself is a charming dream with its English-style magic. Rooms? Absolutely adorable. Staff? Total rockstars. And let's talk about the food – it was a taste explosion! Kent Cottages, you've got the 5-star game strong. Cheers to a fab stay!

We had an absolutely fantastic time at Glenfiddich cottage. The view of Gregory Lake and the charming front garden were simply breathtaking. The cottage itself was so cozy and homely, making it the perfect retreat for our two-day stay. Special thanks to Mr. Shiva for his exceptional culinary skills – every meal was a delight! We're also incredibly thankful for Mr. Rohan, the friendly manager, who made our stay even more enjoyable. Overall, it was an unforgettable getaway in Nuwara Eliya, and we can't recommend Lakeside cottages enough.
