Living Heritage Unveils a Purpose-Built Ayurveda Pavilion in Sri Lanka’s Hills


Set within the forests of Koslanda, the newly unveiled Ayurveda Pavilion is designed to blend with its surroundings. Natural materials, soft light, and open views of the forest canopy create a calming atmosphere that encourages stillness in a sanctuary that is grounded, airy, and deeply connected to the land around it. The design allows for a total of 18 yoga mats on its jungle-view yoga platform and a beautiful ground floor Ayurveda space.


Personalised Ayurvedic Treatments

The new Pavilion will complement Living Heritage’s Ayurveda-based treatments and spa rituals. Led by a highly qualified Ayurveda doctor and team of skilled therapists, Ayurveda at Koslanda may be experienced as a single restorative ritual or as part of a longer, multi-day wellness stay that evolves gently over time. Programmes are shaped around individual balance and include personalised herbal teas, meals based on your dosha, yoga, a selection of massages and herbal steam baths which support deep rest and rejuvenation. Whether easing physical tension, supporting restful sleep, or simply inviting moments of deep calm, treatments unfold through a thoughtful blend of tradition, intuition, and care.


Retreat-Ready: A Space Designed for Group Wellness

With the completion of the Ayurveda Pavilion, Living Heritage Koslanda is now fully retreat-ready, offering an ideal setting for small, intentional wellness retreats in Sri Lanka’s hill country. Beyond the pavilion, the wider estate enhances the retreat experience. Forest trails, hidden waterfalls, open-air dining spaces, and quiet corners offer natural opportunities for group activities as well as moments of solitude – creating a retreat setting that feels organic rather than over-structured. The space also transitions effortlessly between a wellness space and a space for intimate celebrations like a renewal of vows, or a forest-themed wedding.


For travellers, retreat leaders, and wellness seekers in search of meaningful rest, ancient healing traditions, and a strong sense of place, the Ayurveda Pavilion at Living Heritage Koslanda marks a compelling new chapter – one where wellbeing is guided by tradition, nature, and intuitive design.
