This was our second visit to Penwarn Farm. I just love this Gem of a place . .The Inguni cottage was a winner for us from the fireplace, keeping us warm during cold evenings.Exceptionally comfortable.Beds .The breath taking views all around us loved the rock pool with stream .Kudos to Bapsie and staff for ensuring a great stay for us . Definitely returning for a third visit ☺️

Shower a little tricky. Hot water goes off midway.

Kitchen very well equipped. Immaculately kept.

We went in summer but arrived just when it had been raining for a week, the roads were super muddy and slippery to drive on so we had to go extra slow. We would have preferred heaters to the fireplace as the entire apartment was really smokey which was very uncomfortable whilst sleeping.

So beautiful! It was very tranquil and quiet relaxing. It’s a hidden gem with all the amenities you need to get by comfortably. It is very well maintained and the service staff were just amazing. If you want to get away and go offline for a while - this is the place to do just that. Rest, relax and reset!

Not having hot water to shower was a big spoiler.

The size and the breathtaking view from the house. We were all accommodated for including the kids.

If you are a technology geek, perhaps the only difficulty to get through is the cell reception. There are a few sweet spots throughout the farm but when it rains, it's best to have movies or series downloaded to pass time.

The quietness is extremely peaceful; just listening to the trees rustle in the wind and odd cow moo in the distance really gave way for a relaxing getaway. Despite load shedding being suspended during my stay, i know that the lodges are well equipped with gas to ensure you have a stove and hot water at all times.

Just the last 16km of road getting to Penwarn was tough we had to drive extremely slow but I was made aware of this upon confirmation of booking.Therefore my review is a 10 star as Karen was honest about the drive getting to the property.

Everything the place is exactly like the pictures beautiful, clean and spacious. Staff are friendly and always on time to clean. Overall an amazing experience.

The electricity comes on and off (weather?)

We loved the fact that- the lodge can accommodate the whole lot of us- 17 people, and what a good time we had!!

The dirt roads to get there are the only issue for me, but this should be expected when you are out in the berg. Nothing much you can do about it but be careful and drive slowly, once you get passed that your amazing holiday begins

Property was huge and you have freedom to walk or drive around. Views are amazing, volleyball net and kayaks available to use when you want.

What a wonderful lodge! For a place so remote, it's absolutely well kept. The staff are so friendly and helpful. Penwarn Farm Lodge is the perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.

The lodge needed cupboards, for 2 people a wrack is enough, but if we stayed longer we would needed more space. The braai area has almost no lighting and difficult at night to see.

The views and surroundings were breathtaking. Babsi was the best host we've ever met, gave us all the info we needed to do as much activities around the farm and surrounding areas.

It was outstanding, and world-class!

We absolutely loved our stay. The Farm itself is just world-class. The views and surroundings are perfect for a quiet soul renewing getaway after a stressful week. It is beautifully maintained, spotless, and very well equipped with all one could possibly require and more for a getaway. (I was suitably impressed as they even had muffin baking trays Yay! ) We shall most definitely be back again soon and be spreading the word about this new getaway gem we have discovered.

None

We were a group of 16 booked into the largest unit. We loved the spaciousness of the unit. The layout was excellent for a large group. The scenery and surroundings were outstanding. We opted not to do the hikes - the trails were very muddy from a downpour the previous day. The cleaning staff and Bapsie were excellent- he went out of his way to try sort out the DSTV so we could watch the World Cup soccer. The staff were honest enough to handover a ring and clothing which we forgot and Kate is kindly arranging a courier to deliver the items. We will definitely be visiting Penwarn Farm again soon.

We were happy with all aspects of our stay.

Our stay at Penwarn Farm Lodge was fantastic. The location is beautiful, surrounded by mountains. Staff were friendly. We went on short walks with the kids every day. Our accommodation was very comfortable, and the fire place kept us warm at night.
