Beautiful home and fantastic hosts who made this an unforgettable experience. The history of the house is well documented and interesting. We loved all the small details in the room which made us feel like we were in the roaring forties. The facilities in the house were second to none and we felt like we were the Lord and Lady of the Manor! Steve your breakfast was magnificent and I am going to make Karen’s Guilt Free Fruitcake as soon as I get home!More

An amazing trip - I was here for a conference, but the West Coast, Queenstown and Penghana B & B made this feel like a holiday. Karen is an amazing host - from the cosy bedsheets and fruitcake to the well-stocked wine cellar and rooms to explore (thanks for the tour, Karen!). I cannot recommend highly enough - stay here, you will not be disappointed!
Thank you for your comments. Glad we made a work trip feel like a brief holiday!. We're pleased you loved the warm sheets - you certainly got a taste of west coast changeable weather when you were here. We hope you visit again with your loved ones.
We appreciate you taking the time to review your stay.
Firstly, Karen's meticulous eye to detail is second to none. From her welcome at the door to the next morning's amazing breakfast this lovely lady and Steve host a superb Bed & Breakfast. (Speaking of breakfast, you must try her bircher muesli. And Steve's bread.) Authentic period decor, wonderful linen and beds, lovely thoughtful touches throughout; there is too much to mention individually. Every industry award is well deserved. The best part though is how welcome and comfortable Karen made us feel. We loved every minute of our stay. Thank you!
Veronica, we are humbled by your glowing words and we thank you. As we love what we do, we don't tire of getting up every day to do it again. Yes we are always looking for another little 'extra' touch which we think our guests will find comforting, useful or make them feel pampered and welcome. t
Again thank you for your review it is appreciated.
When we first come into Queenstown, Penghana stood out high on a beautiful hill. It did not disappoint. As soon as we entered the front door, we were made very welcome. The old mansion was beautifully kept, with history on the walls, old style furniture and a feel of going back in time. We stayed in the Owen Suit which had a great view of Queenstown, nicely laid out antique furniture and a lovely decanter of Port. Steven & Karen went beyond our expectations, even chauffeuring us into town for dinner and picking us up. We what else can l say! You will just have to find out when you get here.
Firstly apologies we have taken soo long to respond (we've actually had a break so we can continue to maintain our level of attention to our guests).
Thank you for your kind words.
Our goal is to always exceed our guests expectations.
We literally felt transported back in time to when the mansion was first built. Steve and Karen were the perfect hosts with Steve taking on the role of what could only be described as the most attentive butler! The attention to detail was amazing. Well done both. We will be back again. The work that they have put in to create this experience is definitely well worth taking the time to stay.
Paul, Thank you for taking the time to write a review of your stay with us. Steve loved your description of him as an "attentive butler"!!!
Yes, we have put alot of effort into creating an experience here so guests' stay is much more than just somewhere to rest their head.
We look forward to welcoming you again in the future.
All details thought about for your stay and personalised service that definitely exceeds expectations! Everything from the warm welcome, to complimentary chauffeur service, to beautiful history throughout the house, to cozy beds, to world class breakfast….Thank you Steve and Karen!
Looking forward to our return. Longer next time!
Thank you for your beautiful comments (apologies it's taken us too long to respond - we had a break!!)
We look forward to welcoming you again.
