A private dinner in the fresh air makes an enchanting celebration at our deck near the lake. A perfectly planned candlelit dinner under the stars and a customized cuisine for a special occasion would be a great way to reminisce memories with your loved ones.

You can take in the view of the lake, as you relax with the lanterns, candles and wine or any setup that would make it personal and exquisite for a romantic night.

Sri Lankan Traditional High Tea

With the famous high tea, we have our own touch of traditional ‘sweetmeats’ which are added in to bring a Sri Lankan experience of a good cuppa of Ceylon tea. A combination of Sri Lankan delicacies with the classic English high tea items brings about a good balance of choice for anyone who loves their food and would love to experiment with different tastes.

Indulging in our high tea experience, we offer a relaxing and magnificent view of the lake from the comfort of your room or in the landscaped garden.
