HnM Kandy Double or Family Suite

This is a separate unit from the main house and offers complete privacy. We built this space for nature lovers to enjoy waking up to calls of birds, sight of great mountains and a misty river in the horizon. It is large & airy, on a peaceful mountain with good road access, located a 10min walk from the main rd. to Ella. We are also a stones throw away from the city of Kandy, Uni. of Peradeniya, waterfalls & many adventure sites. Your hosts are a former Professor and his son who is into IT. The space The unit is facing the Hanthana mountain range and directly beneath in the morning you will see the path of the Mahaweli River, Sri Lanka's longest river by the mists that rise from it. You will see far away into the tea capitol Nuwara Eliya and beyond. The bed is premium quality Latex rubber from Sri Lanka's own plantations, large, Queen size (68 x 64 inches) with a medium tensile factor which provides a very deep and refreshing sleep. The curtains can be drawn fully to allow you to close out the light even during the day to get a semi-dark ambience. All the furniture is hand made from 30-50 year old Mahogani trees from the home garden it self - we are big about sustainability. This is also why our water is heated using a solar heater and the electricity is generated by a solar inverter and panels. The gardens while being home sized, hosted over 25 species of woody species and many other herbs and spices and even a tea and coffee tree. The highlight is of course the Jack fruit tree. We are eco friendly and have insects, birds, butterflies in our gardens and spaces as they are a valued part of our natural and cultural heritage. The silence is barely broken by human sounds. You can hear birds as they carry on their lives in our garden trees. The back yard you face with the almost panoramic large glass facades open into an amphitheater structure with trees and plants. The unit has its own private washroom and toilet, again which is very large and has a mountain view. You will have direct access by vehicle to the unit if you are walking or coming by car as you can park at the top of the property, or park in the ground floor and come up. The kitchen is a shared space but barely anyone else will be using it. We also have an additional village kitchen with firewood for you to use.
