Pennington is a much-loved holiday destination on KwaZulu-Natal's south coast. With breathtaking beaches, warm waters and a welcome respite from the hustle and bustle of city life, who wouldn't want to make Pennington their home?
A brief history of the area
Pennington is named after an English family who arrived in the late 19th century and farmed in the area. Later, a sugar magnate named Sir Frank Reynolds built a luxurious residence in the area intended to be used by prime ministers. Britain's King George VI was invited to this home but was prevented from coming to Pennington by his untimely death.
