About Jetwing Warwick Gardens

Rooms
5 types
Dining
2 places

A century-old stone bungalow built for a Scottish tea planter, restored by Jetwing with 5 bedrooms on the 30-acre Warwick tea estate at Ambewela.

At nearly 6,000 ft, nights drop as low as 5°C, so the rooms have fireplaces or heaters and the house keeps a library, a piano and a wine cellar.

Each stay comes with a butler, meals use produce from the estate's organic farm and orchard, and guests can pluck and taste the estate's organic tea.
