As grew up in Penneshaw and my Dad was friendly with previous German owners, I loved the old photos in hallway, the original stair bannister, the swimming pool. Thanks

We had a one night stay after all ferries were cancelled. I was happy with the property description of the garden villa we booked. It was a lovely spacious clean villa. The bathroom and kitchen were really lovely and big bed was comfy and lots of extra pillows and blankets.
Sofa bed in lounge could do with updating as it’s pretty tired. The main building is a bit empty and soulless but we ate at the great penneshaw pub anyway.

Hotel has an amazing 180 deg view of the ocean - you can see both sunrise and sunset. The hotel was clean and well maintained. Bed and pillows were very comfortable. Breakfast was delicious. There’s also a beautiful garden and small pool behind the hotel. I’ll definitely be back!

We only stayed here on night, but it would have been easy to stay longer. Our basic room was quite nice and pretty large. All rooms have an ocean view and there is a nice walking path just across the street. Its about 1.2 km walk to the ferry, and very close to the main restaurant bar. Also very close to Hertz - Thrifty rental car. The hotel itself has a nice little cafe attached and is up on a bluff, so has a very nice vista . Staff were very helpful and accomodating. Nothing not to like!
