Ellerton is a delightful small boutique hotel that was originally a tea planter’s bungalow 100 years ago. It is located some 45mins from Kandy at being 2,400ft up, the climate is superb – there are also stunning views of the mountains around about! The accommodation is in 3 areas – Main House, the Valley House, which looks onto the fantastic infinity pool and the self-contained Garden Rooms. The hotel is styled so that it feels as though you are staying in someone’s home rather than a hotel so feels very comfortable.
This beautiful colonial house was once the home of a Ceylonese nobleman. In 2013, this was converted into a six bedroomed luxury boutique hotel which uses colonial furniture to good effect, in a modern surrounding. Elephant Stables welcomes families with children and there are two Suites – Vanilla and Cottage that can accommodate two adults and two children. The gardens are particularly lush and there are fantastic views of the Knuckles Mountains in the distance yet the hotel is only 15 minutes from the centre of Kandy
This simple bungalow is located deep inside the Knuckles Mountains (takes about an hour and half to get there from Kandy) using a very windy road. This is perfect for those who prefer get back to nature and spend time walking and enjoying the glorious views here (there are some fantastic walks to be done here ranging from an hour to all day), rather than worrying about the bungalow’s facilities which are pretty basic. The bungalow sits high up on a hillside looking down the valley to the east (there are superb sunrises to be seen here). The food will be mainly vegetarian Sri Lankan rice and curry.
