    Lakmal and Dilhani are wonderful hosts! Nothing appeared to be too much trouble. We spent some time talking with them as they also live at the property, but would have liked to have had the opportunity to chat more, but we were in Glasgow to meet...

You are welcome to our Home Stay accommodation. Myself (Dilhani) and my husband Lakmal are originally from Sri Lanka and now has the British nationality. We have been in Scotland since January 2001. I makes very exclusive greeting cards and do catering for takeaway and weddings through our other business which is known as Chef of Ceylon. I also got the contract to cater for the Sri Lankan President delegation at the COP26 conference in 2021. My self and my husband Lakmal could be the most friendliest couple you'll could ever have during a holiday. On arrival we would like to have a wee chat while enjoying a welcome drink or tea coffee. 99% of the Guests prefer to have a chat with us and share our experience in Scotland / Sri Lanka. Hope to see you'll soon at Ceylon Home Stay. Thanks for taking time to read our message. AYUBOWAN!! (Long life) Very polite request to our Guests: If you are coming away from Europe, could you please bring me the smallest value cash note in your country. Once you bring it for me, I will give you the value of the cash note in pounds. I want to collect these as a souvenir
Very friendly and quiet neighbourhood. Linnet place has only 11 house with Cul-de-sac and we are at the end of it. Less than five minutes to supermarkets such as Tesco, Sainsbury, Lidl, Aldi, Iceland and Farmfoods. There are many Indian and Chines takeaways within walking distance. If you need any requirements and needs, please let us know. As there is a new bridge opening in Autumn 2024 over the Clyde river, It will be less than ten minutes to Glasgow Airport from our accommodation
