Uga Ulagalla, Anuradhapura
The award-winning Uga Ulagalla is a 25 villa five-star resort set within an expansive 58-acre estate near the ancient city of Anuradhapura, in Sri Lanka’s famous Cultural Triangle. Surrounded by natural woodland, a 150-year-old manor house serves as the resort’s pièce de resistance, having once been the ancestral seat of Anuradhapura nobility.
Serving as a sumptuous base from which to explore Sri Lanka’s Cultural Triangle, Uga Ulagalla can arrange an array of adventures for guests. From witnessing one of the largest elephant gatherings in the world at Minneriya National Park and leopard and sloth-spotting at Wilpattu National Park to excursions to Sigiriya rock fortress, discovery wildlife drives and the ancient monastery at Ritigala, there are endless opportunities for adventure. Back at the resort, guests can indulge in nature walks, enjoy horse-riding, kayaking and archery, or partake in a Sri Lankan cooking class, while little ones will adore the opportunity to participate in the junior ranger programme.
