We booked a one night stay at Pendower House as a relaxing break in our journey from Adelaide to Melbourne. We have stayed in Daylesford a few times over the past years and just love the area and the quaint and quirky town. We were made welcome by Renee and, while we settled onto the Queen Room, were treated to... More

I stayed alone at Pendower house and my arrival was greated with warm and casual hospitality. This immediately set the tone for a comfortable and casual stay. The Bed was Very comfortable. The food was plentiful and tasty. The hot water was hot and also plentiful. Recommend highly for a quiet gentle place to stop. Thanks to the owners.

We spent two nights at Pendower House and cant wait to return. The hosts are very warm and welcoming and we felt very looked after. The breakfast was generous and delicious!

Thank you for taking the time to share your stay with us on TA. Sitting by the fire with a glass or red, flicking through magazines and some 'me' time to reflect and relax is exactly what mini breaks are all about. Glad that you took the time to enjoy the lounge esp with wild winter weather. Look forward to... More

I have thought long and hard prior to writing this review, but as one who holds TA Reviews in high asteem, l thought it inappropiate not to review both the excellent and the poor. Those who may wish to check my TA reviews will find that they are extremely positive. I should also point out from the outset, that this... More

Had an absolutely great weekend away, spending two nights at the gorgeous Pendower House. It's located an easy walk from the main streets and you're greeted by a lovely and well maintained English garden. We stayed in the Queen room which has a very comfortable high queen bed, plenty of space in the room for two people with lots of... More

We had a lovely two night stay at Pendower House. Owners Renee and Irene were welcoming and nothing seemed like too much trouble (we called on Saturday afternoon to find out where the iron was and if we could borrow their scissors). The sitting room was laid out well with tea and coffee facilities and fresh biscuits. I liked that... More

We recently stayed here in the Spa Apartment. The house itself looks very picturesque from the outside and has a large number of original features. If you are after ultra chic sophistication and a minimalist approach then this is not the place for you. Whilst not cluttered or full of chintz by any means it is certainly not ultra modern... More
