Ceylon Tea Trails
Ceylon Tea Trails is the world’s first tea bungalow resort, perched at an altitude of 1250 metres in Sri Lanka’s panoramic Ceylon tea region, bordering the UNESCO World Heritage Central Highlands. We are proud to be the first Relais & Chateaux Resorts in Sri Lanka and to share our passion for tea production with our guests.
Our award-winning boutique resort consists of five restored colonial-era tea plantation bungalows. It is located south of Hatton in the Dickoya and Bogawantalawa region, very close to Adams Peak, the highest mountain in Sri Lanka. Hatton is also a stop on the most famous scenic train route between Kandy and Nuwara Eliya, making it the perfect addition to a round trip. In addition to the classic journey by train or car, our guests can also travel by helicopter or seaplane and enjoy the breathtaking nature of Sri Lanka.
Each of the five bungalows is unique, the rooms, named after English estate managers who used to live there, convince by their extraordinary location and their different design. A total of 27 rooms and suites with historical furniture, friendly butler service and gourmet cuisine create an exclusive ambience. Follow the Tea Trail from one bungalow to the next, combine as you wish or simply stay overnight in your favourite bungalow. Traditionally, you will be woken up every day in the morning with a "bed tea" – probably the most perfect start in the morning.
During your stay, enjoy the tranquillity of this magical place, the perfect setting for trekking and cycling against the breathtaking backdrop of mountains, lakes, winding roads and waterfalls. Unwind, enjoy the view of the surrounding tea plantations or pamper yourself with a spa treatment. Immerse yourself in the secrets of tea production or savour our excellent culinary highlights. Ceylon Tea Trails will inspire you.
