Type : Bed and Breakfast Accommodation Grading : Tourism Grading Council of South Africa - Four Stars. Location : Somerset West
The setting of Somerset West is one of the loveliest at the Cape. The town's attractiveness lies not in its one street business centre but rather in its rural atmosphere; graceful old homes and estates in a valley protected by the Helderberg and Hottentots-Holland ranges.
