Ellerton Bungalow

Managed by
Steeped in history and originally constructed over a century ago to house the manager of a sprawling tea estate, ELLERTON stands as a testament to a bygone era. Today, under the ownership of Luca and Iromi Poloni, this charming estate preserves the character and tranquility of yesteryears. Perched at an elevation of 2,400 feet (800 meters), Ellerton offers a harmonious blend of Sri Lanka’s finest weather.

With a legacy that spans generations, Ellerton captures the essence of a bygone era while providing a retreat that seamlessly combines comfort and history. The strategic location, just 3 hours’ drive from Colombo and a mere 30 minutes from Kandy, makes Ellerton an ideal gateway to explore the island’s diverse wonders.
