SITUATED ON THE POONAGALA ROAD TWO KILOMETERS AWAY FROM THE BANDARAWELA TOWN. SURROUNDED WITH MANY VARIETIES OF TREES, SOME OF THE ROOMS FACES A DIFFERENT AREA. SOME OUT LOOKING THE NAMUNUKULA RANGE OF MOUNTAINS AND NUWARAELIYA/PIDURUTHALAGALA MOUNTAIN RANGE TOO. ITS APPROXIMATELY SEVEN KILOMETERS TO ELLA WITH BEAUTIFUL WINDING ROADS TO THE RAWANA ELLA WATER FALLS. THE LIPTON SEAT AND CATHERINE SEAT ON A BEAUTIFUL DRIVE OR WALK THROUGH LUSCIOUS TEA PLANTATIONS, WHICH IS VERY SOOTHING TO THE MIND. HORTON PLAINS COULD ALSO BE REACHED THROUGH THE DIYATALAWA MILITARY CAMP A VERY SCENIC DRIVE PASSING THROUGH ONE OF ASIA'S LARGEST POLO GROUNDS,TAKING YOU ONLY AN HOUR AND HALF TO YOUR DESTINATION. SHOULD YOU WANT TO CONTINUE YOUR TOUR TO NUWARAELIYA AS WELL IT SHOULD TAKE YOU ONLY ONE HOUR FROM THIS POINT. DUTCH HOUSE, ADELPHI, SAGALA, SURROUNDS THE US RESORTS. WHICH HAS A CALM ATMOSPHERE ENGULFING YOU INTO A SOOTHING REST.
