Experience

With several attractions in Nuwara Eliya and beyond, Jetwing Oatlands Bungalow is your ideal launch pad for an adventure through the central highlands of Sri Lanka.

In natural harmony with the cool climes of the hill country, lush green spaces thrive in a variety of forms. A short drive from Jetwing Oatlands Bungalow leads to the vivacious Victoria Park – a popular recreational area in Nuwara Eliya, complete with promenades for a brisk upcountry walk. Just beyond, Pidurutalagala, better known as Sri Lanka’s tallest mountain, overlooks the town and the expanse of Horton Plains National Park, which stretches over the stunning central highlands of Sri Lanka – one of our two natural UNESCO World Heritage Sites on the island.

Closer to home, our family at the neighbouring Jetwing St. Andrew’s offer a unique frog watching tour within the surrounding environment. Accompanied by our resident naturalist, you will embark on an educational adventure with expert knowledge on the habitats of these amphibians, their habits, and even their signature calls on a nighttime scouting expedition in the cool hills of Nuwara Eliya.

The picturesque backdrop of Lake Gregory is also located at the edge of the Nuwara Eliya town for wonderful afternoon outings with activities on both land and water, and finally, a visit to the hill country is incomplete without a cup of our world-famous Ceylon Tea – that too without a visit to the factories where it is produced. Nuwara Eliya is surrounded by a multitude of longstanding tea factories, including the notable Labookelle Tea Centre, which provides visitors with an insight into the craft behind our liquid gold.
