Discover Nature at its Finest
The “Little England of Sri Lanka – Nuwara Eliya” is a fabulous gateway located amidst the addictive scenic beauty of the misty Blue Mountains, which is just the right spot to curl up in comforts, away from the work-o-holic routine of our lives. Hill club is a Conceptualised, amazing work of architecture that is simply built to make your vacations a totally pampered, spoiled and luxurious engagement, enticing your senses.
The first or founding members were most if not all at that time coffee, cinchona or tea planters who were either Englishmen or Scots. The original building which served as a club house was centered around the present billiard room.
The Hill Club looks over the town of Nuwara Eliya and consists of 39 cozily appointed bedrooms with hot/cold water, each equipped with television and telephone facility, including two suites on the upper floor and three family rooms in the Chalet; a large reading room, mixed lounge, casual bar, mixed bar, casual dining room, billiard room equipped with 2 full sized tables, main dining hall serving eastern and western cuisine, and A'la Carte. Room service, laundry, car rental, IDD, Internet and e mail facilities in all rooms and public areas are available. The Hill Club boasts of four of the finest clay courts in the Island and in the days gone by, it was a venue for the Ceylon Tennis Nationals. The Courts are of first-class condition. The Annual Ranking Tennis tournament is also conducted annually in the month of April at the Hill Club. At present, the Club stands proud as it serves an exclusive membership of around 750, both foreign and local.
Nuwara Eliya, or Little England as it is also aptly referred to, is Sri Lanka's most popular holiday destination. This enchanting town is located at an altitude of 6500 feet above sea level, which has a much cooler climate than the lowlands of the country, with temperatures ranging from 12â° Celsius to 22â° Celsius. Blessed with a salubrious climate, breathtaking views of valleys, meadows, mountains, gardens and greenery, it is hard to imagine that Nuwara Eliya is only 178 km from the hot and humid Colombo. Golfing, Horse Racing, Boating, Fishing, Trekking, Mountain climbing, sightseeing and many other fascinating recreational activities, all in season, makes Nuwara Eliya the ideal holiday resort, promising holiday makers an unforgettable experience. The Hill Club stands high with pride, centering this colorful dream. Nuwara Eliya is located approximately 165 km from the Colombo International Airport (178 kms from Colombo), or in other words, a 5 hour drive.
