  • "Awesome Memories!"

    04 May 2015

    "We stayed at Pennygum Country Cottages the Long week-end in May 2015. The Hosts Sarah Cooper and her Husband were great....When last were you "Hugged" on arrival?? They also gave us some great idea's for things to do....we now have the great photo's as evidence. The Apple Cottage which we stayed in was great. Will not forget sitting on the Patio sipping a good red wine while looking at the Berg and the stunning scenery in between. The Fireplace was well used, and the heaters in the bathrooms was a great touch! Great venue,Awesome scenery, friendly Hosts and Pet friendly...what more could you want!"

  • "Best place to be"

    31 December 2014

    "Pennygum Cottages give you this special moment when you know for sure: you are at the right place at the right time where you should be and no other stay in our holidays will outdo this. The view is stunning, the rooms are cozy, super-clean and well equipped, it feels from the very first moment like youre home. Sarah and Paul are definitely the best hosts of South Africa. So if youre travelling the southern Drakensberg - youll have to drop by and book Pennygum Country cottages. Lisa, Germany"
