Nestled against the foothills in Dickoya, Sri Lanka,the Governor’s Mansion Luxury Tea Estate Boutique Hotel stands prominent in its garden setting,located in a serene and picturesque tea valley of Ceylon.
Guests can experience a relaxing holiday in tranquillity, where panelled walls, old yet gleaming wooden floors and attractive fireplaces bring to life the grandiosity of the past. Preserving the opulence & warmth of the Mansion’s origins, the exclusive suites and grand settings have been renovated keeping the uniqueness of a luxury English mansion, where original antiques and brass ware set on display pay tribute to its historical value.
The white garden chairs on the immaculately maintained lawn, overlooking the expanse of the tea estate running into the mist covered mountains, sets place to sip Ceylon tea in pleasant company. One can read a book on the wooden chair, set romantically under a secluded canopy, with the sounds of chirping birds and the stream nearby. From the terraced garden, the fishing pond or through the bay windows of the mansion, the much-revered Adam’s Peak can be viewed on a day with a clear blue sky. While as the sun sets beyond the mountain ranges, the sky comes alive with different strokes of warm colour.
Guests can walk amongst the tea bushes in the plantation and observe the daily routines. And while standing on the garden lawn, they can catch a glimpse of tea pluckers carrying their day’s collection in wicker baskets. Adam’s Peak, a highly venerated site by Buddhists, Hindus, Muslims and Christians alike is not too far away, if guests seek an adventurous hike. Various flora, gathered over the years, gives the garden a unique and awe-inspiring character. Trees dating back a hundred years have been well preserved and now stand tall looming over the colourful and tranquil garden.
Guests can hike or cycle along the winding roads of the tea valleys or ride the white water rapids of a river close by. They can experience a steam train journey or visit religious sites such as Temples and old British Churches.
Though tastefully old fashioned, the Mansion offers modern Board games, Badminton, Karaoke, Satellite TV and Internet.
