+94 74 237 6866Welcome to Thotalagala, a remarkable feat of restoration.A planter's bungalow that has been revived to its former glory, featuring seven themed suites inspired by personalities who shaped the history of the Uva province, one of Sri Lanka's foremost tea-growing regions and arguably the finest tea-growing region in the world.
Surrounded by 20 acres of lawn and patana grass, Thotalagala offers sweeping vistas that greet the eye from the edge of the lawn. Behind the bungalow, covering the Haputale hills, lies a 4000-hectare tea plantation stretching up to Lipton’s Seat, 1500 feet above, and extending over onto the Bandarawela side of the mountain.

+94 74 237 6866Gorgeous house and garden, superbly restored. Amazingly attentive service; nothing was too much trouble. Absolutely everyone was friendly, cheerful and helpful. We stayed for 3 nights on an all inclusive basis; amazed to discover this also included a laundry service. It was refreshing for all the inclusions to be proactively flagged up so we were aware of them. Highly recommended.
What can be said about this property. It is in an astounding location at 1400m elevation on the side of a hill overlooking the mountains and valleys. It feels like you are on top of the world. And the infinity pool is astounding overlooking this view. The rooms and lodge are exquisite and really take you back to those old times. The staff are super attentive. We stayed at the all inclusive rate (breakfast, lunch, dinner, high tea, Lipton's seat and a tea factory visit. Amazing value for money and a once in a lifetime memorable experience.
