Calmness! Brilliant. In nature - almost no people and absolute tranquility. Beautiful simple clean wooden house.

Rustigheid! Briljant. In die natuur - bykans geen mense en absolute rustigheid. Pragtige eenvoudige skoon houthuis.

Peace and tranquility. We had a lovely time at Penhill Farm. The peace and quiet was exactly what we needed. Wonderful to listen to the frogs in the lily pond in the evening.

Rustigheid en kalmte. Ons het 'n heerlike tyd gespandeer by Penhill Farm. Die stilte en rustigheid is presies wat ons nodig gehad het. Wonderlik om in die aand na die paddas in die lelie-dam te luister.

Restful. It's been a wonderful few days. The night has never been so dark! Quiet, that's it. Quiet.

Rustig. Was 'n wonderlike paar dae. Nog nooit was die nag so donker nie! Rustig, dit is dit. Rustig.

Peaceful escape. Peaceful escape in beautiful surroundings! Dave is very friendly and helpful. We stayed two nights for the Knysna Marathon. The gravel road to the farm could be a challenge in a regular car if very wet and muddy. We didn't struggle at all in an SUV and the road was dry. There is mobile phone reception at the cabin, and it is about a 25-minute drive to central Knysna.

Silence, scenery, wildlife, peace. My wife and I stayed there with our baby for a week. For someone who doesn't mind a TV, it's the perfect getaway. Our host on the farm was very friendly, as were the people who work and live on the farm. Will definitely stay there again.

Stilte, natuurskoon, wilde diere, vrede. Ek en my vrou het met ons baba daar gebly vir 'n week. Vir iemand wat nie gepla is oor 'n TV nie, is dit die perfekte wegbreuk. Ons gasheer op die plaas was baie vriendelik, en asook die mense wat op die plaas werk en bly. Sal beslis weer daar bly.

Soul food after a sad February. Wonderful silence, tree-lined and super peaceful, and dark nights, just stars and the moon. Was great to just come back to. The help from the worker and host was unbeatable, and we will definitely go back!

Sielskos na hartseer Februarie. Heerlike stilte, boomryk en super rustig, en donker nagte, net sterre en maan. Was wonderlik om net tot verhaal te kom. Die hulp van die werker en gasheer was onverbeterlik, en ons sal beslis teruggaan!

Penhill Farm Cabin – a peaceful getaway in nature. Our time at Penhill Farm Cabin was a wonderful escape to nature! The beautiful scenery, located just outside the Knysna Forest, was definitely the highlight of our stay. It was so relaxing to be surrounded by the peaceful surroundings. The on-site nursery is a gem that we really enjoyed. It was nice to experience the plants and the care with which they are maintained up close. The braai facilities were excellent, with everything we needed - including a generous supply of wood, which made the experience extra comfortable. We must mention, however, that the beds were uncomfortable. Unfortunately, we did not sleep well and even after two days were still experiencing back pain. This is something that could be improved to make the stay more enjoyable. The host is friendly and hospitable, always ready to help or chat. This makes the stay personal and special. Penhill Farm Cabin is a good choice for nature lovers who want to enjoy a peaceful environment, but be aware that the beds may not be suitable for everyone.

Penhill Farm Cabin – ‘n rustige wegbreek in die natuur. Ons tyd by Penhill Farm Cabin was ‘n wonderlike ontsnapping na die natuur! Die pragtige natuurskoon, geleë net buite die Knysna Woud, was beslis die hoogtepunt van ons verblyf. Dit was so ontspannend om deur die rustige omgewing omring te word. Die kwekery op die perseel is ‘n juweel wat ons regtig geniet het. Dit was lekker om die plante en die sorg waarmee dit onderhou word, van naderby te beleef. Die braaigeriewe was uitstekend, met alles wat ons nodig gehad het – insluitend ‘n ruim voorraad hout, wat die ervaring ekstra gerieflik gemaak het. Ons moet egter noem dat die beddens ongemaklik was. Ons het ongelukkig nie goed geslaap nie en het selfs ná twee dae steeds rugpyn ervaar. Dit is iets wat verbeter kan word om die verblyf meer aangenaam te maak. Die gasheer is vriendelik en gasvry, altyd gereed om te help of te gesels. Dit maak die verblyf persoonlik en spesiaal. Penhill Farm Cabin is ‘n goeie keuse vir natuurliefhebbers wat ‘n rustige omgewing wil geniet, maar wees bewus dat die beddens dalk nie vir almal geskik is nie.

It was fantastic and had a great time. It was very peaceful and very nice. No noise and the surroundings were very beautiful. My 3 little ones enjoyed it as much as we did. The host was very friendly and helpful.

Dit was fantasties en het lekker gerus. Dit was vreeslik baie rustig en baie lekker gewees. Geen geraas en die omgewing was baie mooi. My 3 woefies het dit net so geniet soos ons. Die gasheer was baie vriendelik en behulpsaam.
