My second time @MUST and it was just as good as I remembered. Cate is so welcoming and easy to deal with. My unit was warm (it was freezing outside) and had everything I needed including room for my kelpie who was with me for the Casterton Kelpie Muster. MUST is an easy walk or short drive from the centre of Penola and vineyards. And Penola is a great place to visit and a perfect stopover on the way to McLarenVale

A beautifully modern, self-contained apartment that exceeded all expectations. The hosts were incredibly accommodating, and both the service and amenities were faultless. Convenient car parking was available right at the front door with plenty of space. Set in a peaceful location with no road noise, it offered a truly relaxing stay. The apartment was spotlessly clean, and the bed—complete with an electric blanket—was exceptionally comfortable. The heating was much appreciated during the chilly nights. Highly recommended!

Lovely accommodation - clean, tidy and warm. We appreciated the text message in advance telling us how to find the rooms and the keys. We arrived much later than planned due to a family medical situation, so the easy check in was appreciated. The rooms were clean, bright and warm, and being soft Queenslanders we felt the cold, so were happy for the electric blankets! The accommodation was a short drive to a local pub where we had a pleasant dinner - we were surprised at how busy it was for a Wednesday evening though. We'd love to go back again sometime so we could make the most of the proximity to the wineries.

We had a great stay at @must. We stayed in a Studio Apartment. It was perfect for 2 for a 2 night stay. A hot plate, small frypan, toaster, microwave & kettle meant we could prepare our breakfasts. Penola is a beautiful historic town with many great features, and many wineries! Short walk to town to cafes, pubs, historic walks, large supermarket, etc. The apartment was like a hotel suite with a large modern bathroom. It was nice to sit out on the deck in the warm weather and give Winston the cat a scratch! Next time we will get a bigger suite and stay longer as there is much to explore around the area. Royal Oak Hotel is a must for meals!

Sensational place to stay when visiting the wine region. Friendly and helpful management. Comfortable and clean with modern bathroom. Cooking facilities with pots and pans. Table and chairs to sit at along with a sofa to relax on after a day of endless wine options. A short walk into Penola when cafes open at 8am.

A great place for a stop over on route to Adelaide from Melbourne. Being self-contained was handy and unit was equipped with everything you need. The bed was comfortable and easy to park right outside the unit. Would certainly stay here again if travelling through Penola.
