The Lake House is a contemporary home built using Sri Lankan craftsmen and materials.  It has been designed to be as energy efficient and low-impact as possible and uses the natural breeze from the sea and lake to cool the house, supplemented with ceiling fans, rather than air conditioning.  THIS WORKS!  Most of the hot water is heated using solar power.

There are 4 double bedrooms with en suite bathrooms, 3 of which have outdoor showers.  A further twin bedded room with en suite bathroom is available on request.  There is a very large open plan dining, sitting and games area which overlooks the pool and the lake.  The swimming pool is ideal for exercise and leisure and has an area for sitting and sunbathing around it.  Private yoga lessons can be arranged.  There is a massage room or you can have a massage in any one of the tranquil areas around the garden and pool.  Or for more strenuous activity there is table tennis.  Tuk tuks can be easily hired and a car and driver can also be rented, either for the whole stay or for individual excursions.

There is a Bose music system - you can connect via Bluetooth.

The house has good and fast Wi-Fi throughout.

There is an excellent cook, two house boys, gardener and night watchman who will look after you and do their best to ensure you have a wonderful stay.
