Set in a peaceful rural setting, the house offers stunning mountain views, two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a fully equipped kitchen, comfortable living spaces, private outdoor areas and free Wi-Fi.

Why stay at Eagles' Nest?

🌄 Spectacular mountain views
🌿 Peaceful countryside surrounded by nature
🏡 Entire private home – not a shared property
🥾 Excellent base for hiking and exploring the hill country
🍛 Locally prepared Sri Lankan meals can be arranged
🚗 Private parking available
📍 Approximately 25 minutes from Kandy's main attractions

Spend your mornings enjoying tea on the balcony while the mountains disappear into the mist. Spend the day exploring Kandy, nearby tea country and the surrounding trails — or simply stay home with a book and enjoy the view.

The property is deliberately away from the busy city. You will experience the sights and sounds of genuine village life, while still being close enough to visit Kandy and its attractions.

The home

The house has two bedrooms and two bathrooms and can accommodate up to 5 guests. The living and dining areas open towards the surrounding scenery, while the kitchen allows you to prepare your own meals.

For guests wanting to experience Sri Lankan cuisine, home-cooked local meals can be arranged on request.

Around Eagles' Nest

The property is located in the mountains of Moragolla, with Kandy Lake approximately 24 minutes away and the Temple of the Tooth approximately 26 minutes away by car, depending on traffic and road conditions.

The surrounding area is ideal for walking, hiking, cycling, nature, photography and simply enjoying the slower pace of rural Sri Lankan life.

Important to know

Eagles' Nest is a nature-oriented countryside home, not a city hotel. The property has outdoor areas, surrounding vegetation and multiple levels. Guests should therefore expect the normal sights and sounds of rural life and take reasonable care around balconies and outdoor areas.

Excellent!

It was a big pleasure to have a stay at this house. The location and views are breathtaking, there was no morning or evening in this villa without saying 'oh what a beauty!'. The house is very clean and comfortable, kitchen is perfectly equipped. We had a time of our life here and for sure would come back. Thank you for our wonderful days here. Wish all the best to your family!

Fantastische Aussicht

Schönes Haus mit fantastischer Aussicht. Man kann sich bei Bedarf von dem Verwalter Janaka bzw. seiner Frau lecker bekochen lassen, was in Anbetracht der abgelegenen Lage sehr angenehm ist.

ATT’s Eagle’s View Nest was intoxicating!

The views, the food, the tranquility at the Eagle’s View Nest were everything we had been looking for and more. My wife and I had been to Sri Lanka once before for a weekend and we knew we wanted to come back. We had stayed north of Kandy last time and just happened upon the Eagle’s Nest View in our searches. We could not have found a better place. About an hour outside of Kandy, the location is breathtakingly beautiful. The back of the property looks over the hills and beyond. It was a bit rainy when we were there, but I love clouds and became quite familiar with them during our week there. The property has three patios: one glass enclosed, one open air, and the third on the second floor that is perfect for stargazing. The caretakers, Janaka and his wife, really deserve that name. He drove us where we wanted to go in his tuk-tuk (as well as to places we did not know about) and his wife fed us wonderful meals. The owners were very helpful and kept in touch to make sure we had everything we needed. All in all, we had a great time and I highly recommend this location.

James and his family had been wonderful guests according to my caretaker Janaka and most importantly had maintained a lot of respect towards the tranquil environment, the village and their unique culture that we as hosts love to preserve, enjoy and also respect. They had also kept an immaculately clean house at all times. Shall not hesitate to recommend them to any other hosts out there. It was an absolute pleasure.

About the host

Hosted by Charmaline

Host profile image

I’m a Sri Lankan homemaker living in Sri Lanka and a proud mother of three. Family is at the heart of my life, and I love nothing more than sharing a good laugh and enjoying simple moments together.

I have always been drawn to the warmth and simplicity of village life, the beauty of the outdoors, reading, and taking long walks whenever I get the chance. I enjoy meeting people from different places and learning about their stories, cultures, and journeys.

I became a host because I love the idea of making people feel welcome and comfortable, just as I would welcome friends and family into my own home. For me, hosting is about more than providing a place to stay—it’s about sharing a little of the warmth, hospitality, and simple pleasures of Sri Lankan life.

I hope my guests leave with happy memories, a taste of our way of life, and the feeling that they were genuinely welcomed.

Why they chose this property

I chose this area because I love the peacefulness and simplicity of village life while still being within easy reach of Kandy. It offers a wonderful balance of nature, mountain views and authentic village life, while the cultural attractions of Kandy are only a short drive away.

I enjoy waking up to a quieter environment, being surrounded by greenery, and having the opportunity to take long walks and enjoy the outdoors. The area also gives guests a chance to experience a more authentic side of Sri Lanka, away from the busy city, while still being close enough to explore Colombo and its surroundings.

It is a place where life feels a little slower, people are friendly, and you can simply relax and enjoy the beauty of everyday Sri Lankan life.

What makes this property unique

What makes our property special is the feeling of staying in a genuine Sri Lankan home rather than simply a holiday accommodation. It is a warm, comfortable and family-friendly place where guests can slow down, relax and experience a more authentic side of life in Sri Lanka.

We love the simple pleasures—sharing a conversation, enjoying a good laugh, spending time outdoors, or simply sitting back and taking in the peaceful surroundings. The property offers a welcoming atmosphere with the charm of local life, while still providing the comfort and privacy guests need.

For us, hospitality is personal. We want our guests to feel less like customers and more like welcomed friends, and we are always happy to share local knowledge, recommend places to visit, or help make their stay more enjoyable.

It is this combination of Sri Lankan warmth, a relaxed atmosphere, and genuine personal hospitality that makes our property unique.
