10/10Set up a windy forest road, the Ellerton is, like much of Sri Lanka, a charming time warp with a great view of the Alagalla mountains, colorful gardens and a nearby village temple. Dinner was very good and the friendly dogs and cat, and excellent library make it worth more that the one night stay we had, especially if the weather affords exploration of the countryside.
10/10The British owners of the Ellerton have managed to hang on to the fine sense of service that is traditional and so prevalent throughout Sri Lanka. The staff were all courteous, warm and helpful. Our room was very comfortable and well-appointed. Breakfast were good although the dinners were perhaps a little restricted in their range. This hotel is especially attractive if you just want to sit on your veranda and watch the extensive birdlife that surrounds it. Be warned: you could well be woken in the early hours of the morning by the drums and chanting of the Buddhist monks further down the valley. However, I (somewhat perversely) enjoyed this interrupted sleep as I got accustomed to the rhythms.
