    There is a gorgeous walk on the property, and the room has a breath taking view of the lake. The staff were fantastic-we had a butler who was amazing- and the property is very peaceful and quiet.

    No alcohol - didn’t realise this at time of booking. Not a big deal for a few days but didn’t realise when booking

    Truly relaxing experience, absolutely beautiful. Lovely staff. Big spacious rooms, comfy beds. The food was really great, (breakfast, prawn and crab curries were so good!) so was the kayaking and cups of tea !

    The Farm Resorts is an amazing place. We booked here as part of our Honeymoon. We stayed here for two nights and it was idyllic. Our private bungalow was right on the lakeside with serene views. This is the perfect place to unwind and relax, nestled among acres of tea plantations it is nothing short of amazing. We kayaked on the lake, learned how to pick tea, visited a nearby waterfall and enjoyed delicious food. This resort is exactly like the photos! Ravi, our private butler, was an absolute gentleman. He went above and beyond to ensure we had a fabulous stay.

    The bathroom was perhaps a little dated. But the shower was large and efficient - and the charm of the Farm Resort far out ways this.

    Accommodation in the high country tea plantations is strictly limited by the government and most of what we could see appeared to be similar to the Farm Resort and based on working or former plantations. The Resort only had a handful of rooms and ours had a fantastic view over the lake. we were assigned our own butler - Piyal - on arrival who could not do enough for us arranging a tour of a tea plantation for us and taking us on a tuk tuk tour around the reservoir as well as serving us our breakfast and dinner on our balcony. The location is idyllic and the service is great as was the food. Complete relaxation guaranteed.

    The English breakfast could be improved

    Rating: ★★★★★ (5/5) Our stay at The Farm Resorts was nothing short of exceptional. The picturesque and tranquil setting alone makes it a dream destination, but what truly set it apart was the outstanding service—particularly from Piyel. He was the most attentive butler we’ve ever had, going above and beyond to make our stay special. His warmth, genuine care, and attentiveness, especially in engaging with our baby, made us feel truly at home. Piyel didn’t just provide service; he created memories. He now feels like family, and we will never forget him. This was a stay we’ll cherish forever.

    There is a serenity about this place that we loved. It overlooks the lake and is surrounded by beautiful tea plantations. The positioning of the rooms across the estate means that each room is placed in a world of its own. We were so well looked after by the member of staff who was allocated to us. He suggested that we went on an early morning kayak over the lake, which was quite magical. We were served a most delicious dinner and breakfast, and the individual locations of the tables are gorgeous - spaced out on a lawn, on a prominently overlooking the lake on three sides. We loved the calm of the place and it was a perfect resting point along our journey on the Pekoe Trail walk.

    Stunning property — there are 6 chalets and 1 family bungalow nestled among a 22-acre tea plantation, a walking path, lots of flowers and trees and right by the Castlereigh Reservoir. My elderly parents and I had a very comfortable 2-night stay in the family bungalow. The staff are friendly! We had several meals on-site during our stay; breakfast and lunch served outdoors with incredible views and dinner served in a cozy dining room. My fave was kayaking on Castlereigh Reservoir — extremely serene and peaceful! Absolutely nothing to complain about, everything was wonderful!

    The views are spectacular and the staff are so kind, efficient and attentive. Raj in particular was excellent! We loved how quiet it was here and the food was also very good. It is not a 5 star hotel but if you’re looking for clean, comfortable, private and personal then this is the place.

    Small things could be easily improves such as reading lights for both sides of the bed. Important to highlight that alcohol was not on the menu - however, our butler was able to send someone to town (we visited during the Poya holiday in which alcohol was not available). For the price and as a destination holiday, we would have hoped that some of the activities on the property would have been included in the rate (kayaks & bikes).

    By far, the best feature of the property were the views from the chalets. We had the good fortune of staying in Chalet 6, which I believe was the quietest and had THE BEST VIEW. The changing sunlight throughout the day provided a constantly evolving backdrop for relaxing on our generous blacony. Food met our expectations with a good variety of local and western options. The included breakfasts were generous and really delicious - esp the Sri Lankan options (ALWAYS opt for the Sri Lankan breakfast) The weather was great which allowed us to take out meals outdoors or indoors. The outdoors views, were again, amazing. Our butler, Yoga, was attentive and eager to ensure our comfort. The entire staff was helpful and friendly.

    Together with a groups of friends, we‘ve shared the Family Chalet and absolutely loved it. The scenery is incredible and the resort feels really calming. We’ve very much enjoyed eating at the restaurant and having breakfast outside with an amazing view! The service and staff have been great and we‘re already planning our next stay at The Farm Resorts.

    The wifi did not work a lot of the time. I think the price was way to high for the value, great hotel but too pricey.

    Really beautiful hotel with excellent service and an amazing view. The view from the balcony was the absolute highlight of the stay. The calm and beauty of the tea plantation was great. We had a private butler who did an amazing job. The food was excellent, especially the dinner. There a not much activities to do around, we did kayak which was nice. The bed was really comfortable. The manager was kind and explained a lot about the resort and the tea plugging in the resort, very interesting.
