PENHILL FARM
It’s rare to find a country retreat as unique and authentic as Penhill Farm. A scenic 75-minute drive away from Cape Town, you’ll spot its towering twin palms long before the outcrop of white-washed buildings set on endless emerald lawns comes into view. This stunning oasis set in the Nuy Valley offers guests a perfect escape into Karoo living. In the middle of the property, you will find our Manor House dating back to 1840 and next door our Cellars restaurant that can accommodate approx. 40 guests. Around the Manor House you will find 4 cottages that can all sleep 4 guests each.
