Offering accommodation in just five ensuite rooms overlooking Castlereagh reservoir and surrounding tea plantations, the bungalow feels intimate and very special with the most incredible views. Decorated in neutral colours and contemporary furniture, the property feels modern but cosy and is an extremely comfortable base from which to explore this stunning part of the island.
It's all about the views here and everything about the property has been designed with Castlereagh reservoir in mind. Food and service here are excellent and with all meals and drinks included, everything feels easy and more like a home. For those who are a little more active head out on The Pekoe Trail (we can arrange a specialist guide), visit a tea factory, go canoing or enjoy a picnic by a waterfall.
What we love
- Exceptional views
- With just 5 rooms it's very intimate and cosy
- Like with all Teardrop properties, Camelia Hill's feels stylish yet cosy
- It doesn't feel too 'colonial' in style, which we like
- Food and service is generally excellent
- The location is great with so many experiences on offer
It's not cheap, but the rates are all inclusive
Like with most hotels in the tea country, it takes a while to get here
The pool isn't heated, but it is spectacular so it's worth it
It's fresh in the hills, so bring some jumpers
It is modern by bungalow standards, so if you want something truly historic this might not be for you
Families are welcome but there are no specific facilities
Camellia Hills is working on some key projects. Education, sustainability, wildlife conservation, reforestation, biodiversity and supporting women in local communities.
