I'm really excited and interested in hangout with the people and making new friends and also to welcome them warmly and looking them to visit us again plus with good reviews.
It's really calm and peaceful around the homestay and we have our relatives nearby. The deer hill rest is in the main road of kandy Galaha .In the back yard it's really spacious for you to spend the time along the river mahaweli.
