Location

Surrounded by hills and tea plantations, the town of Nuwara Eliya is the perfect getaway from Sri Lanka's tropical heat. The town enjoys spring like weather throughout the year. A favourite retreat of the British during colonial times, Nuwara Eliya is dotted with English country style houses and sprawling gardens, earning it the name "Little England". Stop by the well-maintained Central Park, which is covered with flowers between March and May. Make time for an evening stroll on the numerous walking paths around Gregory's Lake, which is located just south of the town. Located 163km from Sri Lanka's economic capital of Colombo, and just a short drive away from the enchanting town of Nuwara Eliya, the Tea Factory is an oasis of luxury and relaxation.
