Surrounded by lush gardens, dense jungle and misty hill-top views, punctuated by forest trails and waterfalls, it’s the ideal base for delving into this bio-diverse and fertile region. Guided estate walks, tea-plucking, rubber-tapping and tea factory tours give an immersive hill-country experience.
The accommodation ranges from a stand-alone villa to suites and rooms in the main house, all named after trees found across the estate. Simply furnished and spacious, with an elegant nod to the bungalow’s colonial heritage, the rooms are designed to offer a restoratively calm and comfortable stay. The house is a haven of tranquillity, from the jungle-fringed swimming pool to the small onsite Rock Spa and yoga pavilion, offering complimentary daily sessions. Food here reflects the owners’ passion for Sri Lankan cuisine, using organic produce, homegrown on the estate, wherever possible.
What we love
- There is a huge amount to do here, from estate tours, guided wildlife walks and waterfall swims to cookery lessons, hiking and mountain biking.
- The onsite micro tea factory gives a fascinating insight into organic, artisanal and hand-rolled tea production.
- The plethora of walking and cycling trails from the door ensure that you are surrounded by the fantastic biodiversity at every turn, look out for hornbills, eagles, langurs and deer.
The pool is small and relatively cool in temperature, blissfully restorative after a long hill trek.
The layout of the estate with suites built into the hillside, rugged terrain and plenty of steps mean it may not suit those with mobility issues.
