The Country

At the southern end of Africa the black continent combines all its charms. One moment the visitor thinks he is in South Tyrol, the next, in Switzerland, a few kilometres further in Norway or in the endless wide-open space of the Southwest U.S. and a little later in Africa.

The culinary offer is extremely varied and characterized by above-average quality. African cuisine mixes with European cuisine, and includes Malaysian influences. And all this at reasonable prices.

The cuisine is accompanied by a wealth of first class wines. The quality of white and red wines fulfills international standards and as far as the price / performance ratio are concerned - clearly takes the lead. The numerous wineries around Somerset West and Cape Town, in fact almost the entire Western Cape are recommended destinations that have something to offer for all the senses and invite you to stay and enjoy.

The range of leisure activities is almost endless: Hardly a sport that you cannot pursue at the Cape. Whether on water, on land or in the air, South African visitors will benefit from the wide array of possibilities. Especially around Cape Town, Somerset West and Stellenbosch the visitor can find diverse landscapes and attractions within easy reach. We can promise you that even after months it won’t get "boring". And of course we support you with our advice and suggestions.

South Africa is without exaggeration a golfer's paradise. Within a 60 minutes drive from our B&B Somerset Sights, 16 golf courses can be reached.
