Getting away from it all
We are so happy to be away from it all.
Since we moved to Sri Lanka and started welcoming guests to our luxury Boutique Villa at GlenMyu Estate, we really appreciate being away from it all.
There have been many local and global events that we haven’t been able to control and felt helpless.Â
Being off the beaten track, surrounded by nature and without a care in the world, GlenMyu Estate has been a haven for us.
Many of our guests that experience GlenMyu Estate feel the same.
It's good for you being away from it all
Surrounded by five acres of the beautiful Sri Lankan countryside, it is easy to switch off and forget about the world.
Getting some release from the negative things that plague our minds on the news and social media is a welcome relief.
It is good for the mind and the soul. As more people think about their own mental health, getting away from it all becomes almost an essential thing to do.
No TV's and a desire to switch off
We don’t have televisions at Glenmyu Estate.Â
There are lots of reasons why. We have found that we have benefitted from not having times sucked from us being glued to our favourite shows.Â
Guests are provided with a WiFi code and we find that they are nit glued to their phones.
There are enough activities going on a GlenMyu Estate to distract you if you wish.
The landscape at GlenMyu Estate is our television.
Sitting on the sofas in the main lounge watching the clouds dance across the sky is entertainment itself.Â
We find that guests reconnect with nature at GlenMyu Estate.
It’s a perfect place to relax and forget about home.
Good for your body, good for your mind
Walking around the garden, breathing fresh air and getting back in touch with nature is good for you.
When Ru provides our guests a garden tour it is also a time of discovery as you get to see what fruits, spices and vegetables we grow on the estate.
We often have families stay at GlenMyu Estate who discover new things as a family. This is great for holiday memories and strengthening family bonds.
Spending time at the wonderful swimming pool on my own, away from it all are precious moments for me.
Swimming as the sun goes down, listening to the birdlife making their way to their nests is an amazing experience.Â
It really reminds me of how lucky I am.
I love it when our guests at GlenMyu Estate have similar experiences when they book their stay with us.
Homemade food to nourish your body
We grow fruits, vegetables and spices in the garden. They are the basis for many of the meals that we make for our guests at GlenMyu Estate.
As we do not use any chemicals on the estate all these ingredients are organic. It makes a marked difference to the taste.Â
We do also support good local producers by buying local and seasonal produce.Â
Apart from not being able to grow all we need, we believe that it is important to be a good neighbour and support local people.
Animal magic
Being around animals helps  take your mind away from home and feel that you are away from it all.
Whether its our ducks, dogs, chickens or cows you will be distracted from the challenges of everyday life.
There is a lot of space for the animals on the five acre estate.
Spending time watching the animals go about their lives is a good way to get away from it all.
