The hosts were very welcoming and the place is lovely. The room was comfortable with everything working. Having a generator was really helpful as there was load shedding while we were there and we were not affected in any way.
The breakfast ambience was truly great and the breakfast itself wonderful.
It was a very worthwhile stopover for us.

There is nothing of tourist value in Ermelo. But if you must stay there, this is the place to stay. We were coming back from the coast, on our way to Johannesburg airport the next day. This hotel is about a two and a half hour drive from the airport, making it a good place to spend the night in order to break up the journey. Julie and her parents are very nice people who made sure we were comfortable. The hotel is secure with internal parking behind a gate. The cottages are well-furnished in a traditional rather English style. The breakfast and water pressure are good. The two little dogs are very sweet and friendly. We would stay there again if in Ermelo.

Comfortable and friendly. Had everything I needed for my overnight stay. Perfect for a business trip stopover. For me it was great that it is in a quiet area where you don't have coal trucks driving past through the night, which can be a big problem in Ermelo.

Hosts George and Sue are great. Very helpful and attentive. Only minor drawback was no A/C but they provide fans - it was cool enough in the evening to be fine with the fans on. We would definitely stay here again when in Ermelo.

Haven’t been here for a while and it’s so nice to be back. Everything is as I know it, Sue and Charles friendly as always and ready to assist when needed. Rooms are clean and well equipped. In a previous review I said I will only stay at Pennylane whenever I’m in Ermelo and I do only stay here, haven’t been to any other place than here. The reason is because I feel at home here. Thanks for another week with you and will be back soon.

Very friendly welcome. Easy check in. Room was clean and the breakfast more than expected.
We only stayed for one night and it was really quite. No issues with load shedding as provision is made to cover every situation.
Will recommend this place to other travelers as well.

Very cozy place with all amenities for a stop over. Our host was very friendly and very professional...Even though Ermelo is quite a busy place, Pennylane guest house was superb. Had a wonderful time watching with the macaque and the love bird
