Horagolla Walauwa (also known as Horagolla) is a large bungalow (as mansions are referred to locally) in Atthanagalla, Western Province, Sri Lanka.

A stately home built by Sir Solomon Dias Bandaranaike after his appointment as Maha Mudaliyar (Head Mudaliyar) at the turn of the twentieth century. It drives its name from the his country seat of Horagolla, where it is located and from the word walauwa the traditional name for a headman's home.

Located in close proximity is the older walauwa of Horagolla which was home to Sir Solomon's father Gate Mudaliyar Don Christoffel Henricus Dias Abeywickrema Jayatilake Seneviratne Bandaranaike. A passionate horse breeder, Sir Solomon converted this house to his stables. After many years of derelict it was renovated by the renowned architect Geoffrey Bawa as the home of Sir Solomon's grand daughter Sunethra Bandaranaike in the 1980s.

Horagolla Walauwa, became the family seat of the Bandaranaike family with Sir Solomon's son S. W. R. D. Bandaranaike becoming the 4th Prime Minister of Ceylon after independence followed by his daughter-in-law Sirimavo Ratwatte Dias Bandaranaike becoming Prime Minister on three occasions and his granddaughter Chandrika Kumaratunga becoming Prime Minister and then President of Sri Lanka.
