Selwood Cottage | Cottage in Nuwara Eliya
4 Bedroom Cottage in Nuwara Eliya
Step into history at Selwood Cottage, a rare and charming colonial bungalow nestled at the foot of Mount Pedro, Sri Lanka’s highest peak. Built in 1912 by Hannah Hoodwright, Selwood is one of the few heritage homes in the region historically owned by women. Lovingly crafted to resemble a classic English country cottage, it features a green roof, latticed windows, timbered beams, and warm wooden floors — all surrounded by a wild English-style garden that bursts into life between April and May. Tucked amidst misty hills and enveloped by clouds, the cottage offers a serene escape in Nuwara Eliya, often referred to as the "Little England." Guests can expect cool mountain air, breathtaking views, and a deep sense of calm in this hidden sanctuary. Though secluded, the location provides easy access to Nuwara Eliya town, the golf course, and scenic nature trails. Whether you’re a history enthusiast, nature lover, or simply seeking a peaceful getaway, Selwood Cottage offers an unforgettable blend of colonial charm and natural beauty.
