    “The location is really calm and beautifull. Well equipped. We only stayed for 1 night, we did not have time to use the canoe on the lake. Plan for food, there few shops but you need a car. There are bikes there.”
  • Philippe
    “La quiétude des lieux, le jardin, les habitations sont exceptionnels! Un vrai confort. Les enfants ont fait du canoë, vélo, pêche. Pensez à prévoir la nourriture, car pas de restaurant sur place.”

ChatGPT said: Previously known as Kampung Bongsu Farm Stay, The Farm is a charming farmhouse set on a small hill, overlooking 15 acres of private, gated land with three tranquil lakes—a fishing lake, a fish farm lake, and a water lily lake. Located just an hour’s drive from Kuala Lumpur and close to Krau Wildlife Reserve, Kuala Gandah Elephant Sanctuary, and Deerland Park Bukit Rengit, it's the perfect countryside escape. Enjoy the peaceful setting with your family and friends—just you, nature, and our friendly local caretaker who manages daily farm tasks. Experience authentic Malaysian farm life: help feed our cows, chickens, ducks, and rabbits, fish for red tilapia, baung, or patin, pick fresh fruits, or simply relax in the serene surroundings. Whether you're looking to unwind or get your hands a little dirty, The Farm offers a unique and refreshing retreat where you can disconnect and reconnect with nature.
Born in Kota Bharu and raise in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. I came third from a family of four. Married to lovely wife and a father to a beautiful child.
Just an hour drive from Kuala Lumpur, the farmstay sits right next to the Krau Wildlife Reserve, Kuala Gandah Elephant Sanctuary and Deerland Park Bukit Rengit.
