Ella has a new address. Fair warning, it’s very hard to leave. Uga Ghiri is a restored colonial manor on a clifftop above the tea country, with 15 villas, each with its own heated jacuzzi.

Fancy swapping grey skies for something warmer? From December, Sri Lanka’s south coast comes into its own. Slow walks on Galle Fort’s ramparts, elephants at Udawalawe and an Edwardian mansion most travellers drive straight past.

Kelaniya Raja Maha Vihara rarely makes the usual lists. Come early and you'll see why it matters. Incense, oil lamps and trays of purple water lilies, Sri Lanka's national flower.

Why do we travel? For José and Iga, it was about slowing down. From Sigiriya to a red dirt track in the national park, then golden hour at Galle Fort and evenings watching the palms turn pink. Nothing felt rushed, and that was rather the point 💙

Five bedrooms, a courtyard pool and a little green gate that opens onto the beach. The Last House at Mawella, often described as Geoffrey Bawa's final design.

The leopard had the track to itself, and clearly meant to keep it.
Sri Lanka's leopard lives nowhere else on earth. Then the island turns green: coconut palms, rolling surf, a railway curving through the trees.

Sri Lanka, Slowly.
Ten days. Nothing in the diary before nine. Sigiriya across the treetops before the heat arrives, tea lanes taken gently, then back to the sea to do very little indeed.
Private throughout. Your pace, your pauses.

When you're on a train in Sri Lanka again, take a moment to look around and talk to the other people on the train. The great people you meet along the way are sometimes the best part of the trip, not where you end up.
