If you love immersing yourself in the history and architecture of old buildings the Ulagalla Resort will not disappoint, as it dates back 150 years and was originally a mansion belonging to a chieftain. Ulagalla is just a 30 minute drive from Anuradhapura and is a secluded, luxury resort in a lush, tropical environment that is far from the bustle of everyday life. Accommodation includes villas with pools, a spa experience that has been designed to resemble a cave and superb dining options either in the restaurant, on a private deck, or actually in the paddy fields that surround the resort!
