A HISTORIC HOUSE TO STAY IN WITH GREAT BREAKFASTS

5.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 3 weeks ago
Large and comfortable bedrooms with great shared spaces in a historic property, Excellent facilities in the shared guest kitchen with tea, coffee, biscuits as well as sherry and port readily available. Outstanding hosts, for whom nothing seemed to be too much trouble, very helpful with local bookings and suggestions for things to and places to go.
The breakfasts with freshly cooked foods and bakery were a feaure of the days we spent there.

What an amazing property.
Karen and Steve have thought everything you would possibly require. If you like antiques this property is for you. The furniture all through this house is a delight. I can not find one fault.
We plan to return for stay longer than our two nights.

Marvellous grand house from another era and clearly loved by its current owners. Tasteful little details everywhere, oozing history, modern luxuries, sensational food, and very professionally run. If you ever find yourself in the spectacular wilderness of west coast Tasmania...stay at Penghana!!

A surprise overnight stay here as part of an organised tour, en-route to kayak the Gordon River. We were made to feel welcome by hosts Karen and Steve, who told us all about the fascinating history of this stately home, and provided a delicious evening meal and silver-service breakfast. The rooms are luxurious, the beds very comfortable, and lots of little personal touches that make guests feel welcome. Thanks so much for your hospitality!

From the minute you arrive at this gracious, elegant B and B, you can sense something special. From the warm welcome to the beautiful rooms, not to mention the sumptuous
breakfasts, catering to all tastes, Karen and Steve leave you with a "forever" memory.

Room tip: Allow an extra day as you won't want to leave.

We are sincerely touched by your words of praise. Thank you. We love to hear that our guests leave us with a 'forever memory' for the right reasons. We feel it is important to endeavor to correctly 'read' our guests individual preference for interaction with us as hosts and privacy to enjoy the house in their own way.
