Our commitment

Leave the forest better than you found it

Koslanda was created to prove that luxury and sustainability belong together. We were honoured in the Regenerative Travel Impact Awards 2021 for our work with the community.

Growing God’s Forest

Our 80 acres of secondary forest are being nurtured back to full health. We plant native trees, run biodiversity projects and use no pesticides — and we hope to extend this work beyond our own boundaries.

A local ecologist has mapped the estate’s flora and fauna and trained our team to share it with you on guided walks.

From soil to supper

Our organic garden supplies the kitchen with fresh vegetables, herbs and fruit — fewer food miles, more flavour.

Local employment

Rooted in the community

We employ and train people from the surrounding villages — of all ages — keeping skills, income and traditional craft alive in the hills of Uva.

Our buildings use sustainably sourced local timber, clay bricks, tiles and stone, built by local craftsmen in the traditional Sri Lankan way.
