Reveal Collection launches Ayr Castle 1922 at Padukka

Adding another exquisite boutique collection, to the local hospitality landscape Ayr Castle 1922 at Padukka was unveiled.

The opening ceremony of Ayr Castle was a heartfelt celebration of its rich history, as the 1922 story was brought back to life by the Reveal Collection team. Guests were welcomed by Scottish bagpipers, their tunes echoing through the hills of the misty mountains and by the warm hospitality of Appu, the traditional caretaker, who transported everyone back to the colonial era.

Browns Hotels & Resorts CEO Eksath Wijeratne, graced the occasion and raised a toast to commemorate this remarkable moment. In the golden era of 1922, amidst the lush estates of colonial Ceylon, young tea planter J.F. Arley Elford built this venue.

Designed to echo the majesty of Scottish architecture with unique stone arches, this 1922 marvel embodies both the romantic allure and enduring charm of its creator’s love story.

Stepping into Ayr Castle is akin to stepping back in time, where colonial charm is beautifully preserved through antique décor, including Old Ceylon picture frames, ebony Dutch boxes, timber sideboard cupboards and antique almirahs.

The castle boasts five spacious suites, the Elford Suite, Edinburgh Suite, Turnberry Suite, Governor’s Suite and Ayr Suite—each thoughtfully named to reflect both the colonial days of Sri Lanka and Scottish inspiration. Suites feature plush beds, elegantly designed living spaces and luxurious bathrooms with scenic bathtubs, spacious balconies with mountain views that, on a clear day, extend to the buildings and lights of Colombo and Adam’s Peak. Beyond its historical charm, Ayr Castle 1922 offers guests a range of enchanting experiences and excursions.

Reveal the Collection, by Browns Hotels & Resorts, offers a selection of boutique villas in Mirissa, along with hillside retreats in Pussellawa, Ragala and Padukka.
