Situated in Pahala Maragahawewa, within 33 km of Kumbichchan Kulama Tank and 33 km of Jaya Sri Maha Bodhi, Wilpattu Restaurant & Guest house features accommodation with a garden and free WiFi as well as free private parking for guests who drive. The property is located 35 km from Nature Park Anuradhapura, 35 km from Anuradhapura Railway Station and 35 km from Kuttam Pokuna, Twin Ponds. The property is non-smoking and is set 34 km from Kada Panaha Tank. Brand new rooms above a small restaurant. Welcoming and kind host family. Strong AC and beautiful view from the balcony. Be aware there is no hot water, but as we learned, this is fairly common in Sri Lanka. It’s on the main road, so there is some traffic noise, but it didn’t bother us. Dinner is also available with notice to the family.

An Asian breakfast is available at the guest house. Guests can relax in the on-site bar, while packed lunches are also available upon request. Beautiful family. So kind and helpful. Susanto and Damiamti organised a driver to pick us up from Negombo and also to take us to Polonnaruwa after our stay. They also organised a fantastic safari and even made my husband's birthday special with cake and balloons. Nadita, their son was an amazing host, adept at English language and a delight, as was their gorgeous dog Tiny. Stunning location. The tank, a short walk away, is teeming with all kinds of birdlife. Lovely village.

Accessible via private entrance, all units have air conditioning, soundproofing, desk and a private bathroom with a shower. There is a seating and a dining area in all units. At the guest house, the units are fitted with bed linen and towels. Great location. Nicely tucked away from the road amongst the forest. Lots of birds including jungle fowl to watch from the patio. Walk in from the road via a pathway. They met us to help carry our bags. Dinner was traditional Sri Lankan curry - vegetarian or chicken. Followed by yoghurt and fruit for dessert. Plenty of food, not spicy and was yummy. Other options for dinner were fried rice or vegetable noodles. Breakfast was packed for us for the following day safari. 2 egg sandwiches, a banana, yoghurt and water. Sufficient for the half day. The best part is the very close lake and dirt road. We went for a walk with binoculars and saw deer, langurs, crocodile, hornbills and lots of other birds and lizards too. A much better, slower paced experience and one not to miss. We booked a half day tour with the host. In hindsight we would have booked a different tour. Pillows weren't overly comfortable but was OK for 1 night.

The Backwaters property is located very near to Wilpattu National Park. It is a beautifully designed highly Eco friendly establishment.

Our guide, Mubarak, had the most amazing eye to spot beautiful birds along the way. The food offered at the restaurant was healthy and tasty. We will definitely recommend this property to our friends and family.
