The hotel is straight forward and offers old fashioned charm. It is a little tired and dated, but clean and has staff who get on with things and are supportive.
My only negative is the electric car charging point. Or lack of one. The hotel has two outside plug sockets connected by a cable with a 13amp fuse. Guess what happens when two cars plug in, each drawing 10amps. The fuse blows! The outcome is you cannot rely on getting an overnight trickle charge of a only 2kw per hour. Which is around 100 miles for a 12 hr duration. And the hotels pricing for use of their socket is £25, irrespective of how much charge you get. Clearly this needs a drastic rethink and is not a good advert for either customer service or safety

We have stayed at the penny farthing on several occasions, the staff are friendly, rooms are modern and clean. Breakfast are lovely. Dog friendly, dogs even get a sausage for breakfast, and a treat on arrival. All in all worth staying. We will return.

For a reasonably priced hotel in the New Forest during high summer season, it was excellent, and extremely clean. My shower was small, a bit temperamental with hot/cold water, but staff looking into it. Excellent breakfast, parking available and right beside Lyndhurst High Street, fantastic location. Staff friendly and helpful. Recommend!

Pleasant hotel. Looks a bit tired on the outside but fine inside. Sadly, we had two rooms facing the main road that meant our sleep was disturbed. Being hot, it meant that we had to have windows open. The rooms were clean, spacious and modern. Staff friendly. Nice breakfast.

We had a very small and basic room at the front of the hotel overlooking the main road and the road noise was horrendous.Due to the Agricultural show down the road it was busier than normal and we were awoken very early by the noise.Unfortunately as it was the hottest day of the year we had to have all the windows open just so we could breathe.
The TV didn’t work and the Wi-fi was useless(the Management admitted that it was very hit and miss) - well why not do something about it!!
The toilet roll holder was broken and the towel hook on the back of the door was just hanging on by one screw.
This is definitely one hotel we will never use again and I would not recommend it to anyone.

Mixed feelings about this stay.
Positives: the hotel has good parking, we’re very accommodating of my late arrival, is nicely presented, my room was well appointed, breakfast was very good quality and a nice selection and very nice to offer 4 time slots to choose for your convenience.
Negatives: my room was facing the main road which was busy throughout the nice and disturbing despite ear plugs - needs triple glazing installed, room was hot but couldn’t open windows as would have made the road noise even worse, all rooms have Yale locks which leads to other guests slamming their doors shut so no chance to sleep in, room needed blackout curtains.
Overall a very poor night without sleep, but breakfast was very nice and all staff friendly and helpful.

Easy to access, room was lovely and clean although it was at the front of the hotel and the double glazing didn't seem to work at all as we could hear every car go past.
Breakfast was fresh and hot and the staff were very attentive.

The location was good for my visit to Lyndhurst. Room was small (nothing like the one in the picture) and overlooked a very busy main road. Ask for a room facing the carpark as the traffic noise went on untillate and started again very early.
Breakfast was very good

We’ve stayed at The Penny Farthing before. The place is basic, very clean and welcoming. It is ideally situated for walking into Lyndhurst & travelling to other parts of The New Forest. All staff we’ve met during both stays have been welcoming and friendly.
