Nuwara Eliya

​Nuwara Eliya highlights:

King Fern cottage was an excellent choice: rooms are built into the jungle hillside overlooking a golf course. It serves good food, cold beer and even has a pool table. 
​
Victoria park: Otto fell in the lake trying to conquer the stepping stones on his own but the park was lovely. It has a slightly run down play park also which was the first swings and slide action we’ve seen in Sri Lanka. 

Horses: they’re everywhere. As well as a golf course, Nuwara Eliya is also home to a race track, albeit a dilapidated one. As such, there are lots of stables around and an abundance of ponies wandering  tge streets, which made for a change from the cows. Jess took a ride on Best of the Best. I’m unsure if he would have much of a chance at Newmarket but he was about right for our 3yr old.
