Penghana Bed and Breakfast

Old Historical house well set up as a B&B. Heaps of history and the Hosts were helpful in describing it for us. Breakfast was awesome as were the large rooms full of old but well maintained furniture. You felt like you were in the past. Guest also had a separate lounge and kitchen they could use at anytime. All the facilities were excellent and if coming to Queenstown again I would definitely stay here again.

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!

Penghana B&B is a treasure. Karen & Steve are warm, welcoming & personable hosts. The house is magnificent & our room for 2 nights, the Owen room overlooking Mt Owen was sensational. Spacious, very well appointed with generous little touches including robes, slippers, home made cake on arrival, tea, coffee & biscuits. The silver service breakfast was sensationally prepared to order by Steve who excelled. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay & the guidance Karen & Steve offered us. A fabulous base from which to explore Tasmania's gorgeous West coast. Thank you, Lee & Neil

Karen and Steve are wonderful hosts-nothing was too much trouble. We felt pampered in the Owen suite-what a treat. Everything went like clockwork. Karen organised dinner bookings and a trip on the Heritage train. The National Trust House is enchanting and the history is fascinating. Steve and Karen’s knowledge of the history of the house is impressive and their passion is inspiring.

We had a wonderful 2 night stay at Penghana. Two couples travelling together, we each had an ensuite room. The rooms were spacious, warm, well appointed and very comfortable with so much attention to detail - a full suite of towels - including a nice big bath sheet which you don’t usually get in most accommodation. Breakfasts were delicious, I felt very spoilt rocking up to an elegantly laid out dining room and placing my order. The Bircher and marmalade were awesome and cooked breakfast was the perfect way to start the day. Nothing seemed too much trouble in this grand old house. The hosts were very attentive, knowledgeable and always ready and willing to offer suggestions, hear about your day and fill you in on their local knowledge and the history of the area. Karen and Steve, thank you for a wonderful stay.

My husband and I stayed here for a night, and we loved the place. It has such rich character to it. We loved the green garden, the ballroom is a mini museum containing well-documented history of the house, the house has soo many books and novels and games to keep you occupied. The Lyell room we slept in had so much detail to it - 1 theme color, warm micro flannel bed sheets, well stocked bathroom amenities etc.. The silver service at breakfast was personalised for each of us and very tasty too! But all this wouldn’t have been possible without the amazing hosts we had who catered for our needs from the time we arrived to the time we left. Our only regret was we left too early
