Chimneys Nuwara Eliya stands on land that was once home to an exclusive holiday bungalow for the British. It was later purchased by Sir Solomon Dias Bandaranaike, father and grandfather of Prime Ministers and Presidents, who was the first Ceylonese to own land in this quintessentially English town. The land and property have since changed hands, lived through many stories and restorations, and have now emerged, as a secluded and serene holiday home in the hills, to serve its discerning and sophisticated guests.
