Peace and Perfection - ELLERTON BUNGALOW 4 - 5th December 2026 Of all the hotels/bungalows we stayed in during our time in Sri Lanka the Ellerton was by far our favourite. We had the most wonderful welcome from Luca and his team who were so pleased we had made the journey so soon after the cyclone hit the week before. As we were the only guests for the two days Luca kindly upgraded us to a large room overlooking the pool and Luca and Ironi and all the staff looked after us so well. It is just so amazingly peaceful and the views from the terrace across the hillside are spectacular. The gardens are beautiful too and we never tired of looking at all the beautiful colourful plants. The meals we had were cooked to order and were just delicious especially the beef curry and the hoppers for breakfast. Definitely recommended. Luca and Ironi really engaged with us and we almost felt more like friends than their hotel guests. Luca was keen to show us all around the house and kitchen area too and freely spoke of their journey to make the property and gardens what they are today. They truly have done an amazing job. The Ellerton is not only just any hotel however. Luca and Ironi are heavily involved in the local community supporting the local people by buying local produce and supplies as well as extensive charity work. We saw this first hand as the area had been badly damaged by the storm affecting the locals quite badly. They truly are part of the local community there and clearly very well respected. They also support local artists exhibiting their work which is available to purchase should you wish. A special mention to Abdullah, the Estate Manager, who drove us up and down each day to and from the Bungalow by an alternative route. The main road was badly damaged and our vehicle could not cope with other route. It would be unfair not to mention the three friendly dogs, Sam, Boona and Luna. Sam is a real character and just such a softie and adorable. We really wish we could have stayed at Ellerton much longer but as our trip was pre-booked our time there was just too short. It really is a special place and it touched our hearts more than anywhere else. Thank you Luca and Ironi and everyone who looked after us. Good luck with your future plans and one day we hope to return. Michael and Dorothy

An amazing, honest and caring company - I had a really positive experience with this company. I first enquired about the Kandy by night tour as we were arriving from Colombo at 2pm. They kindly offered to start the tour from the Railway station giving time to go and check into the hotel. We then made a few stops, to the Buddha statue and temple on the hill. Then to a commonwealth war cemetery, then onto a Gem store and afterwards the Cultural show, Afterwards we went to the main market but realised it wasn’t for us so stopped at the Queens Hotel. Our guide offered for us to go to the Temple with the Tooth Relic, but we were tired and hungry and opted for the hotel. The guide was a very nice. But quiet gentleman of few words. The next day he was promptly waiting to take us to the Ella tour which involved stops at the Ravanna waterfall as well as a Tea Plantation and Factory Tour. The weather was against us and as we awaited the train, tickets handed to us for 1st class carriage to Ella, with the driver following to bring us back. My friend received news of a bereavement. The driver agreed to take us back and was very kind and understanding. In fact, the company was really lovely, offering us a discount since we missed some of the tour which I thought was a really kind gesture. Also, they were always on hand by WhatsApp communicating in perfect English. I arranged a transfer to Ahungalla with them that was a reasonable price and met another lovely Sri Lankan man who drove us there. A couple of days before reaching Colombo they also booked me a city tour and included Negombo which was well worth it. The guide was amazing, very knowledgable and we really enjoyed it a lot. I was able to pay for some things online in advance and others on the day in person. This was really helpful, everything about this company was helpful, honest and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to arrange all your tours while in Sri Lanka.
