Great location for the walk up Adams Peak. The staff were very helpful with a good local place to eat and timings on when to start walking. Also great breakfast in the morning and they allowed for a slightly later check out which wasn’t needed but good to know.

The house and the views on tea plantation are wonderful, the furniture and the decor are incredibly authentic! Everything is very clean and the place is comfortable. We appreciated the chance to chill and relax in the living room with a cup of tea kindly offered by the staff. The whole staff (from the manager to the chef) are extremely friendly and kind, they spolied us with free tea, coffee and delicious meals. I would definitely recommend staying there if you are going to visit nuwara Eliya area.

Upon arrival we were greeted by name and received a cup of tea with the check in process fast and efficient. Suraj and Gaming were always available to help with anything we needed, likewise Yaso was our butler who was always on hand to provide water, towels etc to our room. The food was incredible, something you would expect of a 5 star hotel in London. Pushparaj the chef at the Westbury put together a wonderful festive 4 course Christmas dinner in the dining room. The service was excellent! We missed breakfast as we wanted to lie in one morning & the staff brought the breakfast to our room (waffles, pancakes, eggs, fruit) similarly if we wanted to take the pastries away they would box them up for us.

This cottage stay was everything I could have hoped for! Perched in the hills, it offered breathtaking views that were a treat to wake up to every morning. The serene atmosphere made it the perfect escape from city life. The breakfast was absolutely delicious—fresh, hearty, and full of local flavors. Ask for the Sri Lankan breakfast; it was amazing!! The cottage itself was cozy, clean, and well-maintained, with thoughtful touches that made it feel like home. If you’re looking for a peaceful getaway with amazing scenery and tasty meals, this is the spot. Highly recommend!

Roshan and his family are lovely people. The first night I arrived they were celebrating a birthday party and invited me to join and also eat their food. I drank arack and danced the night away. I couldn't walk for days after that and had a hangover the next day but it was all worth it. The room itself is cosy and the bed comfortable. If you want a nice friendly host family this is the one.

We had a truly wonderful stay at Croft Cottage! The property is a stunning British-style 3-storey villa, beautifully designed and immaculately maintained. The location is excellent, making it both peaceful and convenient. The cottage has lovely common areas that make it feel warm and inviting, perfect for relaxing together. All facilities are top-notch, thoughtfully provided, and everything worked seamlessly. A special mention and heartfelt thanks to Taranga, the housekeeper, who went above and beyond to ensure our stay was comfortable in every way. His attention to detail, hospitality, and genuine care made the experience exceptional — he truly elevated our time here. Overall, Croft Cottage is the perfect blend of charm, comfort, and luxury. Highly recommended, and we would absolutely love to return!

We spent 4 nights at Langdale Boutique Hotel and our experience was simply unbeatable! From the moment we arrived, every detail was taken care of, and the service was outstanding – from the reception team to the waiters, the chef, and every single member of the staff. The hotel itself is idyllic, the perfect place to enjoy a honeymoon or simply relax by the heated pool while admiring the endless tea plantations around. Without a doubt, this is a spectacular accommodation that we would recommend to anyone visiting the area. Thank you so much for everything – we are eternally grateful for these unforgettable days.

Besides doing the incredibly beautiful hike to Adams Peak, you can hire a tuktuk driver to guide you to Morey's Waterfall. the best waterfall we got to hike to in Sri lanka, challenging 1 hour hike but you'll get to stroll thru lush tea plantations and walk along side Lake Morey.

Nestled deep in the heart of Sri Lanka’s central highlands,...

Nestled deep in the heart of Sri Lanka’s central highlands, Maskeliya is a place that feels like it was painted by nature itself. From the moment you begin your journey toward this hill country gem, the landscape begins to shift—lush greenery unfolds across rolling hills, mist dances over tea plantations, and the air grows cooler, fresher, more alive. Maskeliya isn’t just beautiful—it’s breathtaking. The views are beyond imagination. Wherever you turn, there’s something to marvel at: towering peaks wrapped in clouds, shimmering lakes nestled between valleys, and winding roads that seem to disappear into the horizon. It’s the kind of scenery that makes you pause, take a deep breath, and feel grateful just to witness it. And then there’s the weather. Perfect doesn’t even begin to describe it. The mornings are crisp and golden, with sunlight gently warming the hills. By midday, the breeze picks up, carrying the scent of wildflowers and fresh earth. Evenings are cool and serene, ideal for sipping a hot cup of Ceylon tea while watching the sky turn shades of lavender and rose. Whether you’re hiking toward Adam’s Peak, exploring the quiet charm of local villages, or simply sitting by a window and soaking in the view, Maskeliya offers something rare: a sense of peace, wonder, and connection to the natural world. It’s not just a destination—it’s an experience that stays with you long after you’ve left.

If you are into budget travel and want a genuine local experience, NanuOya is a good town to visit. It’s very close to the main tourist town Nuwara Eliya (approx 9km away) and has buses heading there every 20mins. You can also get there by train. The locals are very helpful and kind. You get a few places to eat food like South Indian dishes and koththu and a few places to buy liquor from. There are two waterfalls and the larger, wider one located inside the Glassough tea estate is a place where you can bathe in on a sunny day. It’s a lovely little town surrounded by tea estates!

Do not climb on Saturdays as you will most probably not be able to reach the top. It was over-crowded and the path is narrow the last 500 meters.
