The landscape that nourishes us: twelve wild tropical acres, Wewela Lake and the ancient Nuwara Gala range beyond.

The landscape that shapes us

Older than memory.

The Nuwara Gala Mountain Range and surrounding woodlands belong to one of South Asia’s oldest geological landscapes.

Season after season, drought after monsoon, this ground has continued to change. Peacock Hill sits within it rather than apart from it.

The house is surrounded by twelve acres of tropical wild garden with direct access to Wewela Lake. Resident gardeners Ananda and Thilake tend the estate without pesticides or synthetic fertiliser, and the use of plastics is discouraged.

Look outward

Lake below. Ancient rock beyond.

From the house, the view slips between tree canopy, water, mountain ridges and the unmistakable silhouette of Sigiriya, a landscape that changes character with the hour.
