Offering 1 bedroom, this spacious air-conditioned villa features 1 bathroom with a hot tub, a bidet and bathrobes. A private entrance leads guests into the villa, where they can enjoy some wine or champagne and fruits. The accommodation offers a fireplace.

Absolutely amazing and one of the best places that we have stayed in. We stayed in Edgware Cabana villa and the place is modern and so comfortable! Plus it has an amazing big bathroom with a tub big enough to fit 2. The staff were also absolutely amazing. They made our stay perfect and I would definitely recommend them. We went for the half board option and it was like getting a restaurant experience in the comfort of your own villa. I would recommend at least spending one day doing absolutely nothing but enjoying the villa. TV was big and had all streaming channels and WiFi was really good :)

The owner and his mother were the sweetest hosts we met during our 2 week journey across Sri Lanka. He picked up us from the bus station and also took us to the train station in the end of our stay and bought the train ticket for us from his own money, because we didn’t had a change. He speaks english pretty well and was also our guide and showed us tea plantations, factories and nice spots to take a picture for a reasonable pricey Room was spacious, clean and cosy. Bed was comfy with the comforter. There is also a table and small patio to enjoy tea. Wifi was working well. Nuwara Eliya is more colder than other cities in Sri Lanka which was pleasant change for us. There weren’t any mosquitos. The homemade food was the best we had in Sri Lanka and the portions were huge. Location was near the Lover’s leap waterfall, max. 30 minutes walk and to the city center and Victorias garden it was approximately 1 hour walk but you can take a TukTuk. P.s. They have cute cat as a bonus :)

Boasting garden views, woods hut features accommodation with a garden and a balcony, around 4.4 km from Gregory Lake. It is situated 11.6 km from Hakgala Botanical Garden and provides a 24-hour front desk.

This was an absolute gem! It took us a while to find it, and you need to be ready for a steep walk from your taxi / tuk tuk to the property, but it's so worth it! The property is run by a lovely and extremely welcoming family, Chithra and Wasantha, and their son Rashi. During our stay, we felt really taken care of. There was a large terrace with a beautiful view, and the room was big enough and comfortable. What we enjoyed the most though was the food: truly homemade and honest meals, and the portions were so generous! If we're ever around, we'll definitely hope to stay here again! Thank you for everything!

    It's basically a Villa. It looked new.and was very clean and well maintained. It's right opposite a beautiful valley of Tea gardens.. However as you need to go down to the villa you cannot see the view. Only when you go to the road is the valley visible. Good breakfast. The host makes you comfortable and is always ready to meet your requests.

    Lovely room, which was comfortable and large. The breakfast was good with very attentive staff. All of the staff are lovely and the villa has a tuk tuk, which is very reasonably priced. They kindly washed our clothes for free and offered us tea and coffee on a few occasions with no charge. The grounds are beautiful and the location is on a very quiet street, just a 20 minute walk from the centre.

    Our stay at the Star holiday home was extremely pleasant. The accomodation itself was super clean, and cozy, in Nuwara Eliya where the climate is much cooler than the rest of the country. Not only was the stay refreshing, the owner is a sweet lady who taught us who to cook curry. This is a perfect spot to relax.

    I recently visited Reading Holiday Home and had a wonderful experience. The location was incredibly convenient, making it easy to access. One of the things I appreciated the most was the cleanliness of the place; it was impeccably maintained. Despite its convenience, it was surprisingly quiet, which made for a peaceful atmosphere. Overall, I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a hassle-free and comfortable experience.
