We have recently returned from Sri Lanks and stayed two nights in Aerie. Kelburne cottages are in an idyllic setting. It is so very peaceful and serene. The views are breathtaking. The personal service provided by Ravi and Stanley was first class. This is a never forgotten place to stay - you will not be disappointed. We hope to return... More

Our family stayed in the wild flower cottage for 3 nights. Wonderful views and a unique place with old charm,comfort and out of the world ambiance. The clowds passing below you while sipping a cup of tea in the middle of a tea estate is was a fantastic feeling. The staff pampers you to make you feel so special. A... More

Hotel # 5 of 8 on a 14 day tour of the country. One night only. Unfortunately it was very, very misty, breezy and cool while we were there but the view is never the less spectacular. Also, it was a National Holiday....so the tea pickers were all off from work, both the day of arrival and departure which meant... More

We had a wonderful stay . We were charmed by the olde worlde Rose Cottage, clean and comfortable with dark wood furniture , slightly dodgy wiring , magazines from the 1970s and gorgeous views.Tea plantations surround you , and you can sip tea whilst the teapickers quietly go about their business . If you are looking for cutting edge modernism... More

The cottages are set in the most amazing location high up in the mountains amongst tea plantations. We stayed in Aerie cottage which was in a great location with wonderful views, we shared a twin bedroom with ensuite bathroom and the cottage also had a large lounge, a dining room and sun room all filled with old world charm.

We were on a tour of Sri Lanka with car and driver/guide but we travelled from Kandy to Haputale by train through the beautiful hill country. Murale, our guide, picked us up at Haputale station and drove us along the narrow hillside road to Kelburne View Cottages. We were met by Ravi who looked after us so wonderfully during our... More

Have stayed here many times and it is always a delight to visit. Everything is there to allow you to relax and recover. The food cooked by Stanley is excellent and the service by the Butler unsurpassed. We always stay three nights as there is so much to see nearby and enjoy. The Western food is as good as you... More

My husband and I spent three wonderful and memorable days at Kelburne Mountain View Cottages earlier this year and want to come back very soon. We had read that out of the three cottages, the Rose Cottage was the least desirable - we still can't imagine why this was even suggested. The cottage is lovely and its location awesome -... More

My wife and I stayed here for two nights recently. We rose each morning to breath taking scenery and an excellent breakfast laid out for us by Ravi. Ravi aside from being one of the nicest people one could ask to meet doubled as a very capable tour guide when our drivers command on English was not up to snuff.... More
