Glenross Living
4H Kalutara District
NEW
Hidden away amidst 90 acres of tropical foliage, serenity abounds at this former colonial tea planter’ s bungalow which has been lovingly restored into an enchanting little sanctuary. At the heart of the estate is the manor house, with three beautifully appointed suites, a restaurant, bar and communal living room, each proudly showcasing many original features and exquisite period furniture. In contrast, the vast and contemporary standalone villas have been immaculately designed to offer a sense of abundance yet are rustic enough to blend seamlessly with the surrounding gardens. In such a tranquil setting, it’ s little wonder that this is also a haven of wellbeing, where body and mind can be soothed at the luxurious spa, with expertly designed meditation and mindfulness programmes or a range of fitness activities. In addition, master chefs expertly prepare culinary delights from around the globe or traditional local fare with an exciting twist, each with a carefully curated wellness element.
