Roseland Cottages

The location is incredible, on the hillside surrounded by trees and great for wildlife spotting. We saw more wildlife species here than we did anywhere else in Sri Lanka. The food was delicious with large portion sizes and the staff were incredibly accommodating with any query or request we had. We really liked spending time up at the restaurant space and exploring the site of the estate on foot.

When booking this accommodation, we had no idea it was part of a beautiful estate with a tea and coffee factory and forest plantation. When we arrived we were not given any information about the site or things to do in the area when this would have been very useful and interesting, as the site is isolated. We learnt about things to do through talking to the staff but it would have been nice to have access to some written information about the history of the estate and things to do. The cottage we stayed in was not well furnished. The balcony is huge but there were no seats or table on the balcony to enjoy the view, we had to move a chaise longue outside to be able to enjoy the space comfortably, which wasn’t very easy. The room was huge but sparsely furnished and poorly arranged, with not enough surfaces to put things on and a small TV that you wouldn’t be able to see from the sofa or bed. A bedside lamp on both sides of the bed, large rug and mosquito net would have been nice.

The view from the room is amazing. I love to be surrounded by nature. The food is excellent and fresh. The owners and staff are so welcoming and will go out of their way to make your stay extra special.

All good!

Breathtaking view of the valleys from each of the rooms/villas As we were staying 5 nights Dinushka (manager) upgraded us to a bigger room with a huge window facing the valley in the shower Food was delicious and the portions were quite large. Our favourite was the pumpkin soup and chicken curry Each of the staff members went above and beyond to make us feel home Dinushka helped us arrange for transport to Diyaluma waterfalls (highly recommended - even better than little Adam’s peak) She also helped us purchase the train tickets (Ella - Nuwara Eliya) and transport to the station

It is definitely secluded, but this is what allows the views to be so amazing

The View from the rooms were fantastic. The route to the location would be a little hard, but it was awesome place ones visit there. The Cottages are very good.

Nothing.

Lovely view. Staff are also nice and the owner is very accommodating.

People visiting should be aware it’s located at a higher altitude hence hybrid cars are not able to climb up. We had trouble reaching to the top on pitch darkness. Our car had to stop thrice as it overheated.

Location scenic views

Access

The location and the view from the room was fantastic. Breakfast and Dinner served were very good.

They don't accept card like most places in Srilanka.

Location, food , service, view, everything was good

The cottage was really nice with a beautiful point of view, the stuff was really friendly and helpful. The food was amazing. We could also visit the coffee factory of the owner of the cottages, that was really interesting. We definitely recommend this place.
