Corner Cottage Anuradhapura - Homestay and Cooking Class

Alike to many of the other reviews this is a must stay! We stayed for three nights and wish it could’ve been longer. The hosts are so caring and attentive. I recommend doing all their additional extras if you have the time. Cooking class is a must !! City tour and national park are also so worth the money. Thankyou for having us. We look forward to coming back

I had such a lovely stay here. The room was really comfortable, clean and spacious, and I felt very welcome from the beginning. The owner was incredibly kind and took me on a morning tour around Anuradhapura, which was one of the highlights of my stay. He really listened to what I was interested in and made sure to show me the places I wanted to see. His wife prepared a delicious breakfast every morning, and both of them were so warm and friendly. It felt very personal and relaxed, and I can definitely recommend staying here. ❤️

Gihan and Dinu are so incredibly generous, sweet, curious, and hospitable, beginning with Gihan picking me up from the bus station! I learned so much about Sri Lankan culture and everyday life through my conversations with them, and they made me feel genuinely welcome throughout my stay. Their cooking class was one of the main highlights of my trip. Over four hours, Gihan took me to the market, explained the local fruits and vegetables, and helped choose what curries we would cook based around my preferences. We prepared five different dishes and even made the coconut milk from scratch! At $20, it was an exceptionally generous experience - I was completely stuffed by the end, and also learned so much about the ingredients and work behind all those plates of different curries. I also took a tour to Mihintale with Gihan, which included stops at some local sights along the way, which I would highly recommend.
