The ambience of the farm offers a relaxed yet refined atmosphere, perfectly suited for a range of occasions, family adventures and romantic getaways.

Set within an idyllic valley, surrounded by lakes and adjacent to Highlands Farm established in 1886, Penwarn Farm Lodge spans over 3400 hectares of land owned by the fifth generation of Nicholsons. The expansive grasslands are home to zebra, hartebeest and blesbok, with abundant birdlife, including cranes and wild geese, often visible from the comfort of one's room. Truly a haven for animal enthusiasts, Penwarn Farm Lodge offers an unparalleled opportunity to immerse oneself in nature.

Stunning

So beautiful! It was very tranquil and quiet relaxing. It’s a hidden gem with all the amenities you need to get by comfortably. It is very well maintained and the service staff were just amazing. If you want to get away and go offline for a while - this is the place to do just that. Rest, relax and reset!
