Castlereigh Holiday Bungalow

Beautiful location if you are a nature lover. Lovely staffs. Really enjoyed the way they treated. Tasty local foods. But facilities are less. You will have to travel back nearly 10kms to Hatton for purchasing.. No media, No soundproof rooms, No much privacy.

Regretted staying here!! The place was musty and towels etc were dusty too!! Staff were doing best to work within the means.

Amazing view from up here. The rooms are spacious, but some of you may not like the design of the bathrooms. Food they prepare are actually quite good. There's not really much you can do. A boat ride at the lake can be arranged. There's a river about 3km from the bungalow. You can stop by, if you're up for a swim, but it's not all that clean.

We stayed here one day as a family with two kids. As we were the only guests we literally had the whole place for ourselves. Honestly we enjoyed our stay despite shortcomings. Especially out two kids aged 2 and 4 were really happy as there was lot of space to play around. Luckily we were not super worried about cleanliness of the place. This place has so much potential and I would have easily given five stars if maintained properly. The good: Superb location with magnificent views of Castlereigh reservoir and hills beyond. Service is excellent - efficient and courteous, if you speak Sunhala or Tamil. Good local food, though options are limited. Comfortable beds. The triple room is actually a spacious suite with two double beds, a private dining table, a balcony and a small reception that has its own sofa set. The bad: The place is poorly maintained and has a run down and rather grim outlook. Curtains and even bed linen are dusty and has stains. There was a cockroach in the bathroom. So if you're worried about cleanliness this is not the place for you.

We just returned after a wonderful stay at Castleridge. The cook, Kannan prepared the most delicious meals. He was very accommodating and friendly. Thank you Kannan and Prabu! Although the climate is cool it would be a good idea to have fans in all areas as it does get warm during the day. There is no garden although there is plenty of space to grow a beautiful garden, which would made the bungalow a much beautiful place. We enjoyed our two day stay.
