A beautiful boutique hilltop hotel
Enjoy an authentic planter’s life at this restored 1920’s villa and be transported to a time where plantation living was a glamorous affair
Built on a 62 acre privately owned tea and rubber estate, Rosyth Estate House is a secluded spot to unwind in rural Sri Lanka, whilst not being too far from many of the main cultural sights. This tranquil colonial planter's villa combines traditional Sri Lankan style and hospitality with the contemporary comfort that many of us seek on holiday. With views of tea plantations and tropical jungle as far as the eye can see, it really does feel like you're part of nature, and it's likely you'll even see monkeys such as langurs and red loris, as well as lots and lots of birdlife.
Dining at Rosyth Estate House is a delight, with locally sourced produce and organic offerings from their garden, to create a fusion menu, best enjoyed after a sundowner whilst chatting to other guests. If you've enjoyed the food, then ask the chef to give you a cooking lesson so you can recreate the deliciousness back at home. By day lounge by the pool, enjoy a massage or try out a complimentary yoga session.
If you're feeling a little more active, you can explore the neighbouring villages by bike or on foot, or discover the market and have a chat with the locals. Then of course there are several tea estates you can visit, with hiking trails through the lush green bushes, guided visits around factories and of course a tea tasting session. For children there are treasure hunts too!

Our Difference
The Far & Wild Community...
We think that the best people to talk about an experience are those directly linked to it. Our website and brochures let the ‘real experts’ show their stuff… local experts, travellers & industry insiders. Look out for the coloured markers all around the site... they mean that you are reading something contributed directly by a person from one of these different parts of the community we are part of.
The best memories aren’t simply places and hotels, they are made up of experiences and people… so we connect with local communities, and strive for sustainable travel to make your holiday special
