1. The Lakehouse Cameron Highland
The Lakehouse was built in 1966 in the southern parts of the Cameron Highlands, overlooking a reservoir, to fulfil a long-held dream of a retired British colonel to establish a bed and breakfast. The hotel opened in 1970 with a private apartment and a separate main structure for people escaping to the Highlands.
