Rosyth Estate, Sri Lanka

With its tea plantations booming, the 1920s was a golden age for Sri Lanka. A stay at Rosyth Estate House is probably the closest you can get to experiencing this glittering era for the country, its family-owned colonial planter’s bungalow dating back to 1926 and still decorated to this day with antique furnishings, traditional artwork and beautifully woven fabrics. The private 62-acre rubber and tea estate it’s enveloped by is a spectacular setting and the 10 rooms have been faithfully restored to reinforce the feeling you’ve been thrown back in time. The traditional Sri Lankan cuisine is exceptional while all the experiences are a deep dive into the country’s culture, including guided rubber plantation walks, visits to a tea factory and cookery lessons.
