The rock face
About
Found on Sri Lanka, The rock face is a guest house at 107/1 in Ella 90090, a hill-country town set among the island's central highlands. Ella sits within reach of Kandy, Colombo, Galle and Arugam Bay, so the guest house works as a base for travellers moving between the coast and the interior. The rock face carries a 4.1 out of 5 average from 208 reviews, a record that reflects steady guest satisfaction rather than passing trade.
Ella's position makes day trips to Kandy and Colombo practical, while Galle, Mirissa and Unawatuna on the south coast remain accessible for longer excursions. Arugam Bay on the east coast is a natural next stop for those continuing along the island. The guest house's 4.1 rating from 208 reviews places it among the more established stays in the area.
A website at http://rockface.xtadia.com/ carries further detail about the property. The guest house occupies a spot in Ella 90090, a town in Sri Lanka's central hill country.
Sri Lanka's two monsoon systems mean the southwest and west coasts are driest from December to March, while the east coast is best from May to September, so visitors can plan around the weather. Meals on the island centre on rice and curry, with hoppers, string hoppers and kottu roti eaten daily. The country was known as Ceylon until 1972 and has ancient cities at Anuradhapura and Polonnaruwa for those extending their stay.
