Ruby's Cottage, hotel in Penola

Situated in Penola in the South Australia region, Ruby's Cottage features a garden. This holiday home provides air-conditioned accommodation with a terrace.

We enjoyed the ten minute stroll to the Royal Oak for dinner - twice! And the dogs loved the back garden. Having bread, coffee etc stocked for us on arrival was great.

    Penola is a lovely country town where you could spend a few days sightseeing. We were there for a wedding and only spent a short time in the town. We would have liked to had time to browse in the shops, such as the antique shop and check out the beautiful old homes in the township and visit some of the wineries. You could also spend time in Naracoorte sightseeing the caves which is not too far to travel from Penola.

    Pipers Restaurant in Penola was excellent, a first-class place to eat with great service. Penola is right on the doorstep of the Coonawarra wine region, renowned for its red wine, however the whites and rose are excellent too.

    A lovely little historical town full of warm and welcoming people. Petticoat Lane is full of historical history and the original cottages from the early settlers are just a wonderful window into the past

    Is a lovely little country town in the heart of the Coonawarra wine district. It has a quaint main street with a couple of pubs. A nice mix of historical and modern buildings in a picturesque setting. Whilst we were there it was a good mix of cold nights perfect for sipping wine around a fire and warm days for visiting local wineries. There was a nice amount of shops and cafes to spend an afternoon in. The local pub The Royal Oak was a beautiful pub and the meal and wine we had there was excellent. It had a great atmosphere and was very close to our accommodation. We were originally just passing through on our way to Adelaide but we enjoyed it so much that we changed our plans and went there again on our way home. We found Penola the perfect stop over for the trip from Geelong to Adelaide but plan to add an extra day to our future trips to enjoy this lovely town and its surroundings.

    Penola is a little piece of Burgundy nestled in the Coonawarra near the border of SA and Vic. The arrangement is so similar, with tightly packed wineries scattered along the main road north and south of the town - too many to see and taste all at once. Multiple trips are definitely required, and the heritage value of the town itself is compelling, with the history of Australia's only catholic saint beautifully presented at the MacKillop Interpretive Centre, and other preserved heritage buildings and infrastructure for one of the earliest established towns in South Australia.

    This motel is a little gem. The room we had was spacious and there was lots of bench space in the bathroom. The location is great, its a short walk from the main street with its charming shops, cafes, hotel and the very special Pipers Restaurant. There is an IGA supermarket right next door too. The breakfast provisions were great and the bed was comfy. The staff were very friendly. We will definitely stay here again when visiting Penola.

    Joyce was very welcoming and provided us with everything we needed for our two night stay. The position of the apartment was perfect for a stroll into the Penola township and the breakfast pack was just what we needed. The breakfast area outside the apartment had a cooktop for us to cook breakfast and a table and chairs.

    Fantastic cottage with all the amenities we could ask for and more. Lovely and cozy space that not only accepted but welcoming for dogs - had a great sized yard out front for our little one to stretch her legs in. Dee was an incredible host and we'd recommend anyone to stay when in the area.

    Delightful historic cottage in a fabulous central position in Penola. It's old, very comfortable and charming - don't expect vast panels of glass and marble this is a really memorable experience. Spotlessly clean, very functional kitchen and a nice selection of breakfast items.
