A Unique Farm Stay in a Cabin with Stunning Mountain Views Found in Kluang, Johor!

by admin

 

Situated a 1.5-hour drive from Singapore is a unique farm stay experience, with gorgeous cabins, farm animals and activities, and breathtaking views.



Wait a minute, you mean this place can be found in JOHOR, Malaysia???




Yup.


Set in the foothills of Gunung Lambak in Kluang, Johor, Talula Hill Farm Resort is a fruit, animal, and vegetable farm which also happens to offer cabins for guests to momentarily escape the bustle of city life and soak in the tranquility of the resorts's surroundings.



For sure, one can never get tired of the beauty of scenery at every turn.



But the main highlight for families has got to be the 16 cabins that offer guests a night (or two) of accommodation.



ACCOMMODATION AT TALULA HILL FARM RESORT


There are four types of cabins to choose from:


STANDARD CABIN

Rate: RM340 per night (for 2 pax) | Additional pax at RM100

These cabins come with 2 single beds and can fit up to 3 pax. They have no blacony and no view.


DELUXE CABIN

Rate: RM380 per night (for 2 pax) | Additional pax at RM100



These cabins come with 2 single beds and can fit up to 3 pax. They come with a balcony that looks out to the farm pond and the glorious peaks of mountain ranges.


GROUP CABIN

Rate: RM540 per night (for 4 pax)



For groups of 4, go for the Group Cabin which has 2 Bunk Beds (4 signle beds in total). The balcony overlooks the fruit orchard and the lush greens of the Gunung Lambak forest.


LOFT CABIN

Rate: RM620 per night (for 4 pax) | Additional pax at RM100



For families of 5, book the Loft Cabin which is the most beautiful cabin of the lot. Three single beds occupy the first level while the loft level has a king-sized bed.




But more than that, the cabin has a pitch roof with a grand window which opens up to a panoramic view of the farm pond and mountain peaks right at the balcony!



ALL room amenities include air-conditioning, free WiFi, mini pantry area as well a separate bathroom and toilet area.



Overall, the Loft Cabin we had was comfy and clean.


All of the rates quoted above are inclusive of breakfast and farm activities.


I'll get to the farm activities in a bit but here's what to expect for breakfast.



During our 1-night stay there, it was a simple buffet breakfast which consisted of fried beehoon, sausages, baked beans, muffins, toast and cereal. Nothing too fanciful, but it was adequate.


ACTIVITIES AT TALULA HILL FARM RESORT


Indoor Games at the Event Hall

(FREE FOR GUESTS)



The Event Hall is located within the same cluster of buildings as the cabins and is the place where breakfast is served.


It is also where guests can enjoy games like table tennis, mini billiards and carrom.



There are board games available as well.


FARM ANIMALS

(FREE FOR GUESTS)


What's a farm without animals, no?



Go on a mini farm tour where there are chickens, ducks, geese, goats and rabbits roaming around in the farm shed.


Get a chance to feed the animals too between 5.30pm and 6.30pm daily, where the resort staff will be on site for the animal feeding session.


FISHING

(FREE FOR GUESTS)



Grab a fishing rod and have a go at fishing at the Pontoon beside the animal shed. Fishing rods and bait are available for use at the pontoon.


WATER DIPPING AT THE GROTTO

(FREE FOR GUESTS)


Enjoy a dip in cool mountain water that flows down from Gunung Lambak at the Grotto. 




Do note that the Grotto closes at 6.45pm daily and all children must be accompanied by an adult.


HARVEST FARM VEGETABLES

(FREE FOR GUESTS)



Always wanted to be a gardener? Head to the Vegetable Garden located near the Farm Cafe and help its staff in watering and harvesting vegetables. (Note that harvesting is subjected to season)


SATURDAY NIGHT CAMPFIRE

(FREE FOR GUESTS)


Only for Saturday nights, head to the BBQ area in front of the Reception area for a night of stargazing by the campfire.



Pity it was raining when we were there so the campfire couldn't take place.


CATCH THE SUNRISE AT SUNRISE DECK

(FREE FOR GUESTS)



If you are an early bird, head to the Sunrise Deck in front of the Reception building before dawn amd you will be rewarded with an awesome view of the sun rising from behind the mountains.


HIKING UP GUNUNG LAMBAK

If you are game, Talula Hill Farm Resort is the perfect launchpad for a hike up Gunung Lambak. 
At a height of approximately 1673 feet, Gunung Lambak is considered a moderate hike in terms of difficulty and takes about 4 to 5 hours to ascend and descend.


We didn't had time to do the hike but it is a hike that I definitely would want to experience in future!

WHAT TO EAT AT TALULA HILL FARM RESORT


The farm is also home to a cafe which serves an array of Western & Asian contemporary food. 


But more importantly, I think most people come here for the amazing view of the surroundings. 😅


Prices are on the higher side, and closer to Singapore's cafe prices though. We only ordered coffee from the cafe so I can't comment on the quality of the food.


The Farm Cafe opens daily from 12pm to 9pm on Mondays to Thursdays and 10am to 9pm on Fridays to Sundays. Reservations are recommended and you can either call +60193755818 or email Booking@talulahill.com to reserve.

Apart from the Farm Cafe, there are NO other food options at Talula Hill Farm Resort. The only other option is to drive out to Kluang town which is about 10 to 15 minutes away. 


And trust me when I say there are plenty of cheap food options! 😆😆😆



OTHER THINGS TO NOTE

When I shared the IG Reel on my IG earlier this month, I received a few messages asking about parking and security of the place.

 

You can park directly below your cabin and while I cannot speak for the security of the place, I can share that access by car to the accommodation area is controlled via a gantry which can only be opened by the cabin key card.



As for the recommended number of nights to stay, I would say 1 night is adequate. Two nights will be good too if you prefer to take things really slow and easy, and just spend the time to chill. Else, one night will be enough:

- Head there early for lunch at the cafe, and check in after that

- Spend the afternoon exploring the farm and experiencing the various activities

- Have dinner at the cafe, or drive out to Kluant town

- After dinner, head to the Event Hall for a game of table tennis, mini billiards, carrom or other board games

- Chill the night away in the cabin, or head to the campfire if you are there on a Saturday

- The next day, have breakfast and enjoy the rest of the morning with the farm animals or harvesting vegetables

- Check out with plenty of memories 😊



Talula Hill Farm Resort offers a farm stay experience like no other, and I think we may just head back again!
