Even better than the accommodation itself was the service and help we received from the owners. They helped us with our travel plans, cooked a delicious dinner (breakfast was just as good) and helped with our car. The owner is a great guy who will not leave you in trouble. My whole family really enjoyed our stay. And if you stay here, be sure to take advantage of the home-cooked dinner offer. The curry here was really delicious!

    A return visit to this charming colonial bungalow after a few years was just as delightful as I remembered! The rooms are clean and comfortable as always, and the fireplace added a cozy touch. The staff was friendly and helpful, and the service of Waruna was very very good! Ensuring a pleasant stay. The location is excellent; within easy walking distance to Nuwara Eliya city and surrounded by so much to do in the neighborhood. I completely enjoyed my stay.

    Kent Cottages in Nuwara Eliya deserves a big high-five! Mr. Nalaka, the caretaker, made our stay feel like a breeze – super friendly vibes. The Bungalow itself is a charming dream with its English-style magic. Rooms? Absolutely adorable. Staff? Total rockstars. And let's talk about the food – it was a taste explosion! Kent Cottages, you've got the 5-star game strong. Cheers to a fab stay!

    We had an absolutely fantastic time at Glenfiddich cottage. The view of Gregory Lake and the charming front garden were simply breathtaking. The cottage itself was so cozy and homely, making it the perfect retreat for our two-day stay. Special thanks to Mr. Shiva for his exceptional culinary skills – every meal was a delight! We're also incredibly thankful for Mr. Rohan, the friendly manager, who made our stay even more enjoyable. Overall, it was an unforgettable getaway in Nuwara Eliya, and we can't recommend Lakeside cottages enough.
