Exceeded every expectation. For the cost of a 2star hotel they delivered 5 star luxury. This is by far one of the nicest surprises of our trip! From the forest cake and wine offered during the day to brandy on a private porch to the best eggs Benedict I have ever had! We will make Penny Farthing Inn a tradition whenever visiting St Augustine in the future.

The house was located outside of the busy section of St. Augustine but close enough to walk to everything. The room was great! We would stay here again.

This was our first time as a B&B guest. We had a wonderful time. The location was central to everything but quiet and comfortable. Due to the owners and staff, we felt like family after only a few hours. We will definitely be back.

December 16, 2012
We stayed two nights at the Penny Farthing Inn in late November 2012 and would highly recommend it. The Inn is within walking distance of the historical area and many fine restaurants. It is beautifully decorated in Victorian style with many interesting antiques and accessories of the period. We stayed in the Victorian room, with a very large bedroom and sitting area, but a small bathroom and particularly small, out-dated sink area. The breakfast was delicious and adequate in size. The Inn's owner and staff were very friendly and helpful and provided extras including wine/sherry/port, snacks, and coffee/tea at various points throughout the day.

I've been to B&B's from Kentucky to the Keys...Penny Farthing Inn was definitely one of the most cozy ones. I was very satisfied with not only the Inn itself, but also the location. Will definitely return.

The Penny Farthing is as nice an Inn as I have stayed and I have been in B&B'S from VA to FL. The hospitality was second to none and the quaintness simply added to it's charm. Thanks you for a lovely stay. Todd Young

October 19, 2012
My husband & I came to St. Augustine for a romantic weekend getaway. We have stayed at other places there that were beautiful but now that we've stayed at the Penny Farthing Inn, we will not stay anywhere else. Penny's Attic was a quaint, nicely decorated room with a beautiful private rooftop porch. Marie and Betty took such good care of us that we thought they could actually read our thoughts! Breakfasts were delicious, especially because we had perfect weather for dining at their outdoor tables. This Inn is in a great location-you can walk everywhere but are not surrounded by the hustle & bustle that could keep you up at night. We are looking forward to our next stay already!
