Sri Mathie Historic Estate

Habaraduwa

Situated in Habaraduwa, 2.6 km from Koggala Beach, Sri Mathie Historic Estate features accommodation with an infinity pool, free private parking, free bikes and a garden. The property has pool and garden views, and is 15 km from Galle International Cricket Stadium. Boasting family rooms, this property also provides guests with a sun terrace. We had an excellent stay in a very authentic and cozy home for the last part of our holidays in Sri Lanka. Guy and Mary were very welcoming hosts and served us delicious breakfast with homemade curd, granola and bread. Home made dinner was also available but we unfortunately could not join due to our schedule. The pool is beautifully located in the middle of the forest and was the best pool we had during our trip. The house is located in a very quiet and serene place but with a scooter/tuk tuk, everything can be reached quickly. Overall, we had a great stay at Sri Mathie and would definitely recommend to anyone!
