River Cottage, hotel in Wellawaya

With Demodara Nine Arch Bridge reachable in 40 km, River Cottage provides accommodation, a restaurant, a garden, a shared lounge and a terrace.

The property and grounds are well designed. The garden and eating pavilions were really pretty and well maintained. It’s a very peaceful location and lovely on the river and watching people going about their everyday life. It is near to the most stunning waterfalls which are a must to visit as well as the Buddhist site only 3km away. The deluxe triple rooms were very spacious. It is worth mentioning all the furniture which is beautiful and handmade by the owner. The food was very tasty Sri Lankan style. The owner and his family were really lovely and friendly we really enjoyed our chats with them in the evening.

Mount Wood Star, hotel in Wellawaya

Situated 7 km from Demodara Nine Arch Bridge, Mount Wood Star features accommodation with a restaurant, a bar and a 24-hour front desk for your convenience.

It is a really amazing place, with an exceptional outlook. Just 2 bedrooms so we had it all for ourselves. It is run by a local family, who are humble and incredibly genuine and warm. We wished we could have enjoyed the views more and jungle experience. But we only stayed one night (arriving late and leaving early). Bravo the husband who built the property. The breakfast was excellent.

    Our stay at River Lodge was very pleasant. The room was clean, spacious, comfy bed & shower. You can hear the river from the rooms and restaurant. The local Sri Lankan food was really tasty. The owner and his colleagues are very friendly and made us feel like home. In the morning we took bath in the river and lay in the grass under the trees to read a book. The room is very cheap for the quality of the stay. We really recommend staying at River Lodge!
