Lucien and all the staff could not have done more to welcome us. Lesley's cooking was fabulous, utterly delicious. Each meal was such a treat. And Lucien's kindness in showing us around the pepper...

Food was good - the cook went out of his way to accomodate us/kids. The house/location is a bit dark between the valleys and we didnt have great weather so everything was... More

The house has been beautifully and luxuriously designed and yet had a very homely family feel about it. The surroundings were stunning, and could... More

This is a very interesting house with nice indoor/outdoor living. The main living area is lovely with lots of comfortable chairs and a swing and the service is really great. The chef here was fantastic and produced some of the best food that we ate on the island, particularly the Sri Lankan breakfast. The only thing that lets this property... More
