Embark on a journey back in time at Goatfell, an exquisitely restored luxury tea bungalow hotel located in the Concordia Estate, near the colonial hill station of Nuwara Eliya.
This historic bungalow, once the residence of the estate manager, artfully combines the charm of an authentic Sri Lankan estate with the comforts and luxuries of modern living.
Perched at an elevation of 2,000 meters, Goatfell offers guests an unparalleled experience of Sri Lanka’s stunning highland beauty. You’ll be surrounded by verdant tea plantations and undulating hills here, offering some incredible views and a picture-perfect setting for a tranquil getaway.
Its proximity to Nuwara Eliya, a vibrant highland community with a British-country-village feel, just a 25-minute drive away, adding a touch of historical and cultural richness to your stay.
Goatfell is dedicated to reducing its environmental footprint and has implemented several initiatives to this end. The property strives to be free from single-use plastics wherever feasible, opts for locally sourced and sustainable toiletry products, and regularly organises clean-up drives for beaches and estates. Committed to community engagement, Goatfell supports local orphanages and conducts educational tours and workshops aimed at teaching young people about biodiversity protection.

Whilst the legal situation for LGBTQ+ people in Sri Lanka is less than ideal, travellers to the country will find a different reality as the majority of resorts and hotels provide safe haven for foreign queer people. Whilst some discretion is advised, Sri Lanka is an incredibly popular gay travel destination.
