SRI LANKA Puwak Watta
SRI LANKA Puwak Watta

TRANQUIL HOLIDAY RETREAT, NEAR GALLE

We have created a rural hideway in a small village in the South West of Sri Lanka.

 

For people looking to experience the real Sri Lanka, yet enjoy comfort and style, this 130 year old 'Kandyan' house has been lovingly renovated and modernised by the owners using local craftsmen. 

 

Nestling at the edge of a 5 acre tea and cinnamon plantation and surrounded by tropical gardens, you can't help but soak up the atmosphere, sitting out on the shady verandah, dining in the courtyard with its ornamental pool, browsing the extensive Sri Lankan book collection in the Tea House library or lounging by the large swimming pool or in the Ambalama. 

 

Puwak Watta has generous accommodation including 5 double ensuite bedrooms, is within walking distance of the famous Handunugoda Tea Estate, 3 miles from the nearest beach and 15 miles from the historic Dutch Fort in Galle.

TOURISM UPDATE

January 2023

 

The UK Foreign Office does not currently advise against travel to Sri Lanka and our experience is that Sri Lanka is still a fabulous place to visit. You will need to be aware that petrol is currently rationed, so that transport can be a bit more expensive than before and driver organised tours need a special permit to allow for additional petrol consumption. 

 

COVID UPDATE

January 2023

 

If you are fully vaccinated,

Sri Lanka currently has no Covid restrictions.

Accommodation in the Tea House was added in 2018
