Homely Cottage

Homely Cottage is a tiny two-room guesthouse on Saranankara Road — in the heart of Kandy. The garden cottage has free Wi-Fi, ceiling fans, daily housekeeping and a restaurant; breakfast, tours and airport transfers are on hand.

Malwathu Maha Viharaya and Kandy Viewpoint are about a 10-minute walk; Kandy Lake is 0.5 mi and the Temple of the Tooth 1.7 km. For travellers who prefer a quiet, family-run base over big hotels — with Kandy's sights within strolling distance — Homely Cottage is intimate, easygoing and honest. The garden cottage is a peaceful hideaway, and the hosts share their favourite Kandy viewpoints over breakfast. Kandy Lake and the Temple of the Tooth are within easy reach, with the viewpoint a ten-minute stroll away.
