The little England, rest & recuperate centre of the colonial British tea planters and dignitaries on this far flung corner of their empire. The smoking steeples, British Tudor style architecture, misty mountains covered in Tea, and a lake to stroll along feeling like a civil servant of the British Empire.

The best of the aromatic teas come from this region as the climate is close to a temperate zone with temperatures falling well below 12 degrees during December to February having cardigans at hand is advisable. Take a walk through the sprawling acres of Tea estates covering most of your site and marching down on every possible spot on the hills, visit the highest tea estate, Pedro in Nuwara Eliya.
