About
About Udawatta Kele (UK) Forest Lodge Kandy
Kandy’s forested side comes into focus here, with greenery and birdlife providing a noticeably different backdrop from the traffic-heavy city center.
Udawatta Kele (UK) Forest Lodge Kandy offers a small-scale stay near the green surroundings of Udawatta Kele, providing a quieter counterpoint to central Kandy. Guest rooms include private bathrooms and practical facilities, while complimentary WiFi is available for staying connected. Beyond the room, the property’s amenities include a restaurant, garden, terrace, and shared areas for spending time outside the accommodation. Private parking is available, and transportation services can be arranged for trips around Kandy and farther afield. The forest-side location works particularly well for travelers interested in nature without giving up access to the city’s historic core. Kandy Lake, the Temple of the Sacred Tooth Relic, museums, and other central landmarks remain within reach, while Udawatta Kele provides walking trails and wildlife much closer to the lodge.

Where You’ll Be Staying
Planning a stay in Kandy? Get to know the city and explore the best areas to stay.
Discover what each area has to offer and find a hotel in Kandy that suits your trip, budget, and plans.
The lodge is positioned near Udawatta Kele Sanctuary, the forest reserve rising above central Kandy. This part of the city feels greener and less commercial than the streets around the railway station and main shopping areas, yet Kandy’s cultural center remains accessible by road. The terrain is hilly, so tuk-tuks or other transport are generally more practical when moving between the lodge and central attractions.
Nearby Attractions
- Udawatta Kele Sanctuary – The obvious neighbor: a protected forest reserve with walking trails, dense vegetation, birds, and other wildlife surprisingly close to central Kandy.
- Temple of the Sacred Tooth Relic – Kandy’s most significant Buddhist landmark and one of Sri Lanka’s principal pilgrimage sites.
- Kandy Lake – The ornamental lake anchors the historic center, with a popular walking route and several major landmarks around its shores.
- National Museum of Kandy – A useful stop for understanding the former Kandyan kingdom through historic objects and collections.
- Bahirawakanda Buddha Statue – An elevated city landmark where the large seated Buddha is accompanied by broad views across Kandy and its surrounding hills.
What to Expect Around Here
The immediate appeal is the contrast between forest and city. Birds and thick vegetation replace some of central Kandy’s usual soundtrack, although the temples, markets, lake, and reliably determined traffic are never particularly far away.
Check availability at Udawatta Kele (UK) Forest Lodge Kandy for a greener Kandy stay with forest surroundings and the city’s major cultural sights within easy reach.

The facilities in the room and bathroom were nice. However, the location required climbing a very long staircase. Once you reach the top, you will see a house, and your accommodation is located behind
