Excellent reviews: I cannot speak highly enough of ‘Lievi’. He and his staff made me feel extremely welcome and he very generously took me and the two girls I had met on the train, to the village hall to join the locals in their Vesak celebrations. A real privilege. The breakfast was very good. Each room has its own table directly outside the room and overlooking the pretty garden.
