Amba Estate
2 November 2022
Amba Estate is an organic farm, guest-house and social enterprise in the Uva Highlands of Sri Lanka. Their goal is to maximise local employment and incomes, while preserving and restoring the natural environment. They work with the local community to produce and export a range of artisanal products and offer guests the opportunity to relax and recharge in of the most beautiful spots in Sri Lanka, surrounded by 130 acres of mountains, waterfalls, caves, forests and tea fields near Ella.
The accommodation is simple, but guests regularly rate the farm stay as one of the best guest-houses in Sri Lanka. The farmhouse has 4 double or twin rooms, 1 single room, and two shared bathrooms. Clove Tree House, a 1930s planter’s bungalow about 200 metres from the Amba farmhouse has 1 family suite, 1 double room and 1 twin room all with ensuite bathrooms. Clove Tree Cottage, a newer annex next to Clove Tree House has 1 family suite and 1 triple room both with ensuite bathrooms. The main daily farm-tour and tea-tasting takes place at 11am every day, except Sundays and national holidays.
