A family-run garden, made for slowing down.
Hedewa grew out of a large old garden in Veyangoda. We kept the trees, the stream and the pond, and built a handful of cottages, a tree house and an open restaurant in between. You hear birds instead of traffic, and your hosts live on site, so help is always a short walk away.

Green all year, with two rainy seasons.
Veyangoda sits in Sri Lanka's wet zone. The south-west monsoon brings rain from May to September, and the inter-monsoon brings heavy afternoon showers in October and November. December to March is the driest time. Pick a month to see what to expect.
Typical figures for the Gampaha area, rounded. Weather changes year to year, and the garden is beautiful in the rain too.
Pick a package, we handle the rest.
Prices are per room for two guests, with taxes included. Switch between the Garden Cabana and the Family Chalet to compare.
Package prices are examples to start a conversation. We confirm the exact price when you send your dates.
The river and the paddy fields.
The garden runs down to a slow, wide river lined with bamboo and big old trees, and opens out onto bright green paddy fields. Walk the field bunds in the morning, watch the birds over the water, or just sit on the bank with a cup of tea.

Hosts who live here
We are on site day and night. Ask for an early breakfast, a late dinner or a tuk-tuk to the station, and someone will sort it out.
Nature left as it was
We built around the trees, not over them. The stream, the pond and the old shade trees are why guests come back.
