W15 Hanthana Estate
Kandy, Sri Lanka
This all-inclusive bungalow in Sri Lanka’s tea country has a warm residential feel to it, with just 10 suites nestled into the lush Hanthana mountain range. Upon arrival in Kandy, a vintage Land Rover Defender ferries guests to the hotel’s manicured grounds, where a 24-hour butler takes the reins. Suites are spread across both a colonial-style bungalow and stables, all with high ceilings, antique furnishings and 21st century mod cons. Communal spaces, meanwhile, feel like the extension of a family home. Guests can be found relaxing in the cosy library, playing croquet on the lawn, or observing the region’s natural flora and fauna with the estate’s naturalist. Guided hikes to the Ceylon tea plantations are a must, while further activities at your disposal include birdwatching, cooking classes, quintessential British afternoon tea and Sri Lankan feasts on the colonnaded verandah.
