Moss-covered rocks and trees in a foggy highland forest

Ferngrove · Experiences

Days that fill themselves

There is nothing you must do up here, and plenty you will want to. Reception plans the day over breakfast and lends the boots.

What to do

From the doorstep, or a short drive up the hill

Most of it is within twenty minutes. We book the tea-estate tour, drive you to the trailheads, and keep a weather board by the door so you know what is clear.

BOH Sungei Palas tea estate

The terraces start below our garden. We book the factory tour and the hilltop tea room, or point you at the path if you would rather just walk.

The Mossy Forest boardwalk

A raised walk through cloud forest near the summit of Gunung Brinchang, ten minutes up by car. Go early, before the tour vans, and take a poncho.

Strawberry, bee & butterfly farms

Pick-your-own strawberries, highland honey and a butterfly garden, all clustered around Brinchang five minutes down the valley. Good with children.

Guided highland trails

From the gentle Jim Thompson trail to the half-day Gunung Irau ridge. A local guide leaves from reception most mornings; boots and ponchos provided.

Ask about a guided walk

Sunrise at Gunung Brinchang

The highest road-accessible point in Peninsular Malaysia, above the cloud line on a clear morning. We arrange an early car and a flask of tea to take.

Brinchang night market

Weekend evenings only — grilled corn, steamboat, strawberry everything and a lot of woolly jumpers for sale. A ten-minute drive; we can drop and collect.

The setting

Tea gardens, mossy forest and a fire to come home to

Ferngrove sits between the BOH tea terraces and the Mossy Forest trailhead, ten minutes from Tanah Rata town. A few frames from the walk to your room.

Rolling green tea plantation terraces with winding paths
BOH Sungei Palas

The tea terraces begin at the bottom of the garden

Plan your escape

Come up to the cool air
