Luxury villas available for Galle Test



The international news agencies claim there is a desperate room shortage for England’s first Test against Sri Lanka in Galle – an idyllic venue ringed by a UNESCO protected Dutch fort and the Indian Ocean – but they don’t know about the properties listed below.

Stay in a renovated 300-year-old Dutch house within throwing distance of the stadium. Indulge yourself and friends by hiring your very own tropical island. Perhaps a nearby lakeside retreat set amongst cinnamon trees and coconut palms is your calling?
