Media Review
Lonely Planet , Feb 2009
'Cruise up to this 18th century Dutch admiral’s palace in your very own 1920s Rover, and live life like you’re the star of a period drama. After a game of croquet on the lawn and a swim in the dreamy pool, retire t o your room to write a novel or sketch a masterpiece on the artist’s easel and then, if the high life gets tiring, take a break by clambering into the towering four-poster or by blowing bubbles of love in the bath. This place is seriously indulgent.'
Tattler , 2006
'There are only four suites in this lovely Dutch mansion, which was built in 1712 and can be taken over for exclusive use…..There is nothing as chic, as comfortable or as stylish in Sri Lanka. Sting loved it so much when he stayed here, he never left the hammock in the garden'
Channa Daswatte, Sri Lanka Style – Tropical Design and Architecture, pp. 36 , 2006
'In the restoration, period features of Sri Lankan architecture were considered along with a healthy respect for the almost Palladian proportions of the house….the ambience of the interior has been achieved through a clever mix of colonial furniture and practical modern designs…..arriving guests….are treated with all the care and attention reminiscent of a visit to a grandmother’s house! – Tropical Design and Architecture, 2006, pp. 36'
Customer Feedback
Sep 02, 2009 : Great hotel and fantastic room. Food choice is however too limited. It was especially great as we were the only guests in the house
-- AH – Singapore
Dec 24, 2008 : Amazing place, everything and everyone were exceptional. A truly luxurious stay. Need at least 2 nights.
--EJ – Herts
Mar 15, 2008 : Owners were very welcoming. Went out their way to ensure we enjoyed our stay. Providing extras such as afternoon tea and cakes, gifts when we left, use of their personal internet facility. We tried to swim in the pool, but it was really cold. ‘’Rodney and Eric said they plan to get a heat pump installed this summer’’.
---BG – Derbyshire
Mar 03, 2008 : Rodney and Eric were just wonderful and made our stay an absolute pleasure. Nothing was too much trouble for them or their staff.
