Hidden gem homestays for yoga and wellness retreats

Look away from the noisy Kandy city center. Head up into the hills towards Hanthana or Ampitiya. Many family-run homestays there practice Ayurvedic lifestyles. While they might not have a formal Yoga Shala, the hosts will gladly prepare wellness meals like Kola Kenda (herbal porridge) and provide a quiet garden overlooking the mountains for your practice.
