A secluded forest retreat by the river
A rustic, minimal retreat inspired by conscious living
Nestled along the serene riverside of Sri Lanka, This camp styled venue unfolds across seven acres of lush forest, vibrant paddy fields, and flourishing organic gardens. Guests are invited to slow down and reconnect while enjoying wholesome, farm-to-plate cuisine that celebrates the island’s authentic flavors. With accommodation for up to 16 guests, The venue offers a collection of eco-conscious living spaces, thoughtfully designed to provide both tranquility and comfort in a natural setting.
Guided by sustainable principles, the retreat embraces self-sufficient agriculture, shelters crafted from natural and upcycled materials, and the use of pure, natural water sources. This riverside sanctuary offers a space to reconnect with the earth and embrace a slower, more intentional rhythm of life.
The retreat venue is thoughtfully laid out to embrace both elevation and open landscape. The upper grounds host four elevated campsites, a tree house, chalets, camp styled decks, offering privacy and sweeping views across the surrounding greenery. From here, the land gently opens into vibrant paddy fields, bordered by two rivers.

Guest comments
“With unique accommodations like cozy tree houses and adventurous open bedrooms that allow for total immersion in nature, we truly embraced the beauty of our surroundings.
The camp also features a high-quality Ayurvedic center, offering rejuvenating treatments that promote relaxation and well-being. The food was not only super tasty but also organic, made from fresh rice, vegetables, and fruits harvested right on the property.”

“ We had the most perfect stay at the Forestry. It had been recommended by a few friends already, so I had high expectations, but it was even better than I could imagine. We will absolutely be back. Everything was great, from the accommodation, food, staff, waterfalls.. Thank you for having us.”
