Launches ‘The Lavender House’ in Pussellawa

Adding another luxury property to Sri Lanka’s tourism catalogue, Browns Hotels & Resorts launched ‘The Lavender House’ in Pussellawa as the latest addition to ‘Reveal The Collection’.

Eksath Wijerathne, the Group General Manager of Browns Hotels & Resorts PLC having been appointed as the head of Serendib Group Hotels said that they have already marketed this hotel globally and has a very positive response despite the pandemic. “We also see a huge appetite from local corporate and expats living in Sri Lanka for this property.”

The management has invested over Rs. 200 million to completely convert a over 100 year colonial bungalow to a luxurious holiday haven for travellers looking to get away from the woes of day-to-day life.

Sitting amidst a picturesque working tea plantation, The Lavender House offers five luxurious bedrooms designed to ensure lavish comforts and lounge spaces with a calming ambience, a dining and entertainment space, inclusive of a billiard room, and a heated pool overlooking mesmerising views of misty mountain tops.

“Guests are treated to both local and international flavours, as well as personalised butler services catering to their every need, making their stay a truly remarkable one,” said Resort Manger, ‘The Lavender House’ Mahen Gunarathne.

“We provide personalized service to the customer where even their vehicles are washed by us when staying with us and we also provide them with personalized meals. Known for its calming and soothing atmosphere, the locale of Pussellawa was loved by the English back in the day. The area still has a strong colonial charm that is inviting to those who want a secluded hideaway in the hill-country of Sri Lanka.”

“Guests can partake in a curated tour of the tea plantation, part of the old Condagalla Estate where tea was allegedly first planted in Sri Lanka in 1854 – making it one of the best places to learn all about tea picking and tea processing.”

Reveal The Collection currently consists of five exclusive properties; Lantern Boutique Hotel, Ubuntu Villas and The Beach House in Mirissa; The Lavender House in Pussellawa, and Stafford Bungalow in Ragala.
