Just about 2 hours from the hussle and bussle of the KL town you'll find Frasers Hill. a little hill that sits spread out over 7 hills on the Tahan mountain range.
Decided to take my parents for a weekend break to celebrate my dad's birthday and it was a good trip. booking the rooms and securing them was easy. just a call and they would do the necessary to help you complete your bookings (payments are needed to secure your room reservations) before heading up.
The Smokehouse is a Tudor style building that houses about 16 rooms, which comprises of standard rooms, suites and family suites. do try to get Halcyon Lodge 3 and the Laura Suite. the feel of it is a typical English style living. just lovely! the rooms may appear old as they are. toilets are refurbished and has new tiles and are very clean. the standard rooms comes with showers wherelse the suites have bathtubs. some rooms may have that 'musky' odour to it as the furnitures are old and also carpetting. could also be that when no guess stays, they close the windows and gets little air.
you can opt to have dinner at the restaurant in the main building where they serve English dinners. for some, the meals here might not be that economical BUT its good. a full course dinner here can set you back MYR80 (approx USD25). for tea time, do try out their scones. they are about the best that i've tried so far. do get a space outside for tea, just cooling and a lovely environment. doing so you'll also be visited by some 'feathered' locals.
the staffs of the hotel are friendly and are always at their best to assist you in anyways. no qualms here. was just up there 3 weeks prior and the service is still the same, if not better. other things would be all rooms comes with English breakfast. parking may be a bit of a problem during the weekends as they are always fully booked. do remember going up the 'Gap' are odd hours so do time yourself if not you'll get caught an hour plus waiting in turn to go up to Frasers. other than this, i'd say its a real great R&R place to be for a short getaway and lots of fresh air!
