Property questions and answersBrowse questions from guests for anything extra you want to know about the propertyThe property usually replies within a few days
Hi, Do you offer yourself or nearby any experiences? I’m looking into one or more of: Sri Lanka cooking class Cardamom farm picking and dry 1day work Tea plantation experience with actually plucking and doing things Thank you!
Yes we can arrange tea plucking and cooking classes but not cardoman picking.Answered on 7 January 2024Hi, could you tell me what your check in and check out times are and if you offer late check out? Thanks
Check in is usually 2 but u can come earlier and leave bags in a safe place. Late checkout is also possible depending on any new arrivals.Answered on 7 January 2024whats the max capacity you could accommodate a time?
Our maximum capacity depends on how many guests use each room. There are 2 double beds in each room and 5 rooms. With 2 adults, 2 kids in each room, that would make 20 people but with just 2 adults per room, that would mean 10 people.Answered on 8 February 2020
