The English love of gardens has left its stamp on the lovely old colonial tea planters bungalows that dot Sri Lanka’s tea country.  Tea Trail’s four colonial bungalows are no exception to this legacy.  Complementing the magnificent vistas of lakes, hills, valleys and lush tea plantations are the bungalows’ own charming gardens.  They are at once very English and yet entrancingly exotic.

Visitors to Tea Trails have the glorious stands of giant bamboo at Norwood to admire, or the profusion of wild banks of Anthuriams, Agapanthus Salvias, Chrysanthemums, Daisies and Lilies that tumble down the slopes of Tientsin.
