Description
There are only a few locations in Sri Lanka’s hill country that can match the , in the island’s western hill country, and this is the setting for this five-bedroom boutique hotel. Overlooking a mirror-still reservoir that spans five kilometres of a deep valley, this contemporary interpretation of a tea planter’s bungalow sits on a mountainside amidst and overlooking emerald tea plantations and pine forests. The hotel’s bedrooms, living and dining areas are located across a series of levels, and flaunt the stunning hill country views.
The three Lakeview Bedrooms and two Camellia Bedrooms all offer panoramic views. There’s a cosy open plan lounge with fireplace, and guests can dine indoors or on an open-sided terrace to take advantage of the valley vistas. In the garden lies a 10-metre infinity swimming pool and a relaxation Ambalama for absorbing the scene.
A team of butlers attend to guests and the all-inclusive hotel promises the highest levels of service and comfort.
The climate in the hills is warm during the day yet fresher and cooler at night, and ideal for long walks. Scenic hikes through tea bushes and forests are a highlight of a stay. And there are so many other things to do: Enjoy a sip of real Ceylon Tea on the terrace whilst admiring the panoramic views. Swim in the cool infinity pool, drinking in the mountain vistas. Wander through tea estates on your own or with a guide. Learn about the tea production process on a hosted tea factory visit. Visit colonial-era Warleigh Church and a local Hindu Kovil. Learn about Sri Lanka’s hill-dwelling leopards at a local research station. Climb Adam’s Peak, or hike through the Peak Wilderness Sanctuary.
Staying on a private Tea estate has its privileges. The boutique hotel is close to some of the finest tea plantations and special private tours can be arranged, accompanied by a professional Tea taster and finished with your very own ‘Tea Tasting’.
