Ashburnham Estate

Kandy, Sri Lanka

Ashburnham Estate, with its picturesque setting, provides a great value opportunity to experience the delights of the Sri Lankan tea country while being within striking distance of Kandy and the cultural triangle. This former tea planter's house is situated on a western slope of the Knuckles foothills, providing panoramic views over the lower peaks of the western hill country. This is a quiet and unique place that despite its proximity to cultural hubs is completely off the tourist trail.
