Before Riverbend Hideout was what you see today, there was our Thaththa.

He was the one who found this beautiful piece of land and, about twenty years ago, built the bungalow that still stands here today.

He always loved walking and trekking through forests. In 2016, when the floods made the usual roads impossible, he was 75 years old and still trekked through the surrounding estates to find a way for us to reach the bungalow.

That spirit is still very much a part of Riverbend.

When you visit, you’ll see photographs of him around the bungalow, including one of him sitting by the river, smiling away. They’re little reminders of the person who started it all.

So when you’re here, take a quiet walk through the estate, sit by the pool, look around and enjoy the place.

We think he would have liked that.

HELP US FIND OUR COWS.

We’re currently missing a few very important members of the Riverbend family.

If you happen to spot them wandering around Bulathsinhala, please let us know. We’d really like to know where they’ve gone!

This & no plans.

Just a quiet afternoon by the Kuda Ganga, the trees overhead and nowhere you need to be.

Please note: the Kuda Ganga has strong currents and is not suitable for swimming or entering the water. Please enjoy the river from a safe distance

Imagine spending the afternoon here.

The pool to yourself, the trees all around you, and 13 acres of plantation beyond the bungalow.

The Cinnamon Tent sits on its own in the plantation, with the Kuda Ganga just beyond the deck.

There’s a plunge pool outside, a second shower open to the river, and plenty of time for two to slow down together.

A little removed from everything, but just 90 minutes from Colombo.

The Bungalow has been here for a while.

Tucked into the trees, with the plantation carrying on around it, it feels quite different from arriving at a typical holiday stay. There’s no lobby, no itinerary waiting for you, and no need to be anywhere at a particular time.

You have the whole place to yourselves. Sit on the verandah, spend an afternoon by the pool, enjoy a meal made for you, or do very little at all.

And when it gets dark, the estate gets very quiet.

That’s probably our favourite part.

Sometimes you don’t need to go very far to feel like you’ve gone somewhere.

Riverbend Hideout sits on 13 acres of tea, cinnamon, pepper and rubber, tucked inside a bend of the Kuda Ganga in Bulathsinhala, Horana.

Just 90 minutes from Colombo, but a very different kind of weekend.

Save this for the next time you’re planning a weekend away

Work in progress, we have a little more work to get done, for this couples only retreat chalet / glamping by the river. Tucked away in a quiet corner of our estate.

Listen to the quiet rhythm of the trees the birds, and just unwind. A short 90 mins away from the Colombo.

Can’t wait to welcome you, as we open.
