Welcome Friends; Galkotuwa Estate is a one-acre plot of land primarily used for pepper and coconut cultivation. It consists of separate entrance apartments and rooms, each with separate bathrooms and fully equipped kitchens. This place will no doubt give you an experience like having your own house in Sri Lanka. You can prepare your own food, and we can even provide Sri Lankan-style dishes on your request. Cooking with clay stoves and pottery will definitely give you a different experience. This place is situated in a rural environment surrounded by the beautiful Hanthana mountain range. You can enjoy the beautiful smiles of the villagers and also associate with them. At your request, we can arrange to visit special places within the area of 10 km for a small fee in our own vehicle. Another specialty of the location is the easy accessibility of the buses and trains, which go to most of the areas of the country, like Colombo,Kandy, Nawalapitiya, Hatton, Badulla, Nuwara Eliya, Ella, etc. And we use spring water from the well. It is completely healthy, unlike chlorinated tap water. So you can save time and money on buying water bottles.
