Beautiful Manor Near Galle
Thompson Manor is a tranquil three bedroomed Villa, situated on a one and a half acre land area, lush green with tea, pepper and coconut cultivation, just one kilometre from the Galle exit of the Southern Expressway and within a 10-minute drive to the city centre and the world famous Unawatuna beach.
This magnificent Dutch-style colonial villa with its large verandahs, spacious sitting room, open courtyards, high ceilings and polished cement floors will offer you a relaxing and tranquil stay. An early morning walk through the large garden with shady fruit trees and other flora that attracts many species of birds, monkeys and peacocks will heighten your senses and keep you fresh and enthusiastic to face the day.
Historically, the villa was built on the land that E. W, Thompson, a British planter who worked for the Walahanduwa tea estate once lived between 1928 and 1931.
The villa has all the modern conveniences, such as air conditioned rooms, cable TV, Wi-Fi facilities and a swimming pool that basks in the shade of coconut palms and is staffed by a skilled cadre of employees, who will cater to your every need.
Swimming
Swimming is an activity that burns lots of calories, is easy on the joints, supports your weight, builds muscular strength and endurance.
Tea Plucking
Tea is harvested by hand, not all leaves are picked during harvesting but only a few top young and juicy leaves with a portion of the stem on which they have grown and the so-called bud (or tip)
Mountain Biking
Cycling in Galle has never been this good, catch a glimpse of unspoiled beauty while mountain biking at Tea Trails.
Guest Reviews
This villa is beautiful . When we arrived we were greeted by the staff. They were available whenever we needed them. Chef Sam cooked our meals and they were beyond delicious . The presentation and the taste was exceptional . Krishantha made a personal trip to the villa to greet us, which was welcomed. Our rooms were cleaned daily, we had fresh towels and they even did our laundry. The beauty of the villa is beyond what I expected. You will not be disappointed!!!!!
This is a fantastic property with everything you could possibly want for a quiet, relaxing stay away. The chef Sam was amazing. Haymantha was so eager to please and make sure we had everything we needed. The property is tastefully decorated and all amenities are of a high standard. We felt completely at home. The wrap around terrace was delightful to sit out at anytime of day. Overall we all agreed that we would definitely want to go back! The host Krisantha was highly professional and friendly. We really like him and his efficiency.
Thompson manor was everything I expected and more. The house itself is beautiful. A mixture of old and new making a charming combination. It’s set in a huge garden full of wildlife. Watching monkeys swinging through the trees and a kingfisher diving in the pool were highlights. The staff were amazing looking after us and cooking amazing food. The host was great to communicate with. I can’t recommend this place enough. One day I’ll be back
