Orchard House is a gem in Galle Fort. It has a beautiful, lush garden courtyard and breakfast/seating area, and a pool with loungers for when the heat becomes too much. The staff are absolutely excellent - nothing is too much trouble, at any time of day. The place is furnished like a private home and we felt extremely relaxed and at home here.

Indiko and Shadow (the dog) are great hosts. Indiko takes good care of you and likes to tell you more about his live and living at the beach near Galle. Galle is 10 minutes by tuktuk. The food in the homestay is great.
