Just 10 minutes from Cromwell, Penny’s Drop Inn sits on a peaceful three-hectare property surrounded by mountain views, orchards, and the iconic vineyards of Central Otago. You will find there are animals on the property including two friendly dogs and a couple of goats.

Areas of the property are being developed so that we can expand our offerings to guests. Therefore you will likely see machinery such as tractors and mowers. The property is supported by solar panels, has a irrigation water race running through the property and an onsite water treatment system.

Outside, guests can unwind on the lush lawn, relax at the picnic table, connect over a drink with other guests and enjoy the open green space and fresh country air.

As a working property, these normal rural features, although well controlled and clearly marked, do pose a safety risk, particularly to young children unsupervised. Therefore, by confirming your booking, you agree to, take care of your own safety, supervise any children, follow any signage and avoid restricted or working areas.

Accommodation options include an 8-bed male dorm, a 6-bed female dorm, and eight private double rooms - all warm, tidy, and well-built.
The property features spacious shared facilities, including clean bathrooms, a fully equipped commercial kitchen, a generous dining area, a cosy lounge, and a coin-operated laundry.
