The Planter's Bungalow Ella

A unique location where you can relax, in true hill-country style. The climate is rated as one of the best in Sri Lanka - cool evenings and warm days offer a respite from the heat of the coastal resorts and is enjoyed by many Sri Lankans as well as foreign visitors.

We are high up here at 1000 metres above sea level surrounded by the vast panoramas of the Ella Gap. Karandagolla is slightly lower down than Ella and the cooler tea gardens of Badulla giving us a more tropical air and richer variety of exotic plants and fauna.

There is much wild country to explore on foot. Many and varied excursions can be arranged. The more active may engage with nature by climbing Little Adams Peak or visiting our local organic tea plantation. Alternatively you can just chill out and enjoy the fine food and comfort of the ‘Bungalow’, sip chilled drinks on the verandah of an evening, stroll in the grounds or slump in a hammock!
