Mention it to staff and they will have someone make noises at night. Flexible ppl My grandfather died in that house, if it helps People in that area have no need of ghosts, in the windy season the wind on the roof makes more that enough ghost like sounds. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pericles Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 Since I checked out Agoda and they like to spam me based on my search history, this came up. Maybe? https://www.facebook.com/events/256813458250195/ This is NOT a recommendation, I know nothing about the people doing it, just popped up in my FB feed. Caveat emptor. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cooks food wasn't that good but the place was clean and had lovely views of the mountains. Like Pericles said the winds makes ghostly sounds at night.

PreseaLover Posted April 8, 2019 Author Share Posted April 8, 2019 Guys this time I have a different requirement. Didn't wanna open another thread for this again so questioning it here...I'm hoping to do a trip alone, but this time I want to go stay around 1 or 2 nights in the WOODS where there is no human interaction or lights or whatever, I just want to enjoy the nature with some alone time.. so i dont mind staying in a smallest cabin if it has a bed..I don't want food either, i can take food and beers with me. I don't wanna go on hikes or anything so should be able to go in the car to the cabin through the jungle.. I don't mind driving over 100km's as I wanna enjoy the drive too... Any ideas?

I used to go Fishing Hut(Maskeliya) 5-6 years back, That time place was magnificent. No phone signal, no electricity, no air/sound pollution, most importantly no humans.... but no idea about the current status of the place... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brownie17 Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 (edited) +1 The Nature's Resort I wonder which one have you chosen and what you can say about it? So, I'm writing an article about these places and I'm interested in the live visitors ' opinions. We once managed to book a villa in Orlando and it didn't cost us a fortune as we thought. So, we were lucky to find an app that offers hotel accommodation. We set a filter on the price and number of people and this villa (westgateresorts.com) was in the list of suggested options. To be honest, we didn't believe it was true at first , because it looked luxurious and had a private pool. And then we wrote them a message and booked a villa for 2 weeks. It was the best 2 weeks of our lives. . Edited February 29, 2020 by brownie17 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with this. Belihuloya is the ideal and only place. Google Maps will give you hotel information. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gummybr Posted December 10, 2021 Share Posted December 10, 2021 Good things in life dont come cheep, if you want to stay for free why not find a nice waterfall in that area and go see it. I am serious, I was coming down from Haputale and we went waterfall hunting on that route. A few places they will tell you not to go towards evening but yes you can enjoy.

JaylenHouse Posted August 17, 2023 Share Posted August 17, 2023 (edited) For a serene mountain getaway close to Colombo, you have a couple of options to consider. If you're open to exploring beyond Kitulgala and Mathugama, you might want to check out the charming town of Ratnapura. It's located about 101 kilometers from Colombo and offers a tranquil mountainous backdrop that could be just what you're looking for. Another possibility is Haputale, situated around 173 kilometers away. It boasts breathtaking views of tea plantations and misty mountains, creating a perfect escape for relaxation. Also, if you're also interested in exploring there are the best places to stay in Memphis. It's always great to gather inspiration from different travel experiences.
