“Once the home of a prosperous merchant, 5 Middle Street has been transformed into a beautiful B&B with big bedrooms facing a leafy courtyard, in the heart of Galle Fort. Airy reception rooms with polished wooden furnishings & modern artwork invite lounging, and generous breakfasts are a highlight. ”
