This restored 19th century tea planters bungalow serves as a luxurious and personalised accommodation for those exploring the hills of Haputale. Guests are spoilt for views at Thotalagala, as the historic property is surrounded by 4,000 hectares of lush tea plantations.
Located in the south-eastern corner of the hill country, guests will experience authentic rural life here. Adjoining the estate is Dambatenne, one of the most well-known tea estates in Sri Lanka as it is one of the only plantations Sir Thomas Lipton planted himself.
The grounds of Thotalagala are well kept and spacious, with an infinity pool facing out to the mountains where guests can relax or enjoy a high tea or breakfast with a view in the mornings. Guests will really feel as though they’ve stepped back to the turn of the century with the original fireplaces, furniture and cigar room. Staff are extremely welcoming, and the site includes butlers to look after you.
The dining room boasts a large table for communal dining, where the chef serves up high quality, traditional and hearty meals. No set menu is provided, as the butler provides guests with all kinds of dining options, ranging from traditional Sri Lankan to British cuisines.
The 7 themed suites are based on the people that shaped the history and development of the province. Rooms will allow you to step back in time to the colonial era, as they’re decorated with oil paintings and polished wooden floors. They’re both spacious, comfortable and inviting and are suitable for couples or small families.
For those seeking boutique luxury in accommodation with character while exploring surrounding tea plantations, Thotalagala is the place to be.
