Somerset West nestles in the Helderberg Basin at the foot of the Helderberg Mountains.

Somerset West is a 40 minute drive from the Cape Town city centre and a 20 minute drive from Cape Town International Airport. It is close to Strand and Gordon´s Bay. Somerset West is a bustling, close-knit community that still retains the historic charm of the Cape. Bargain hunting and meeting the locals can be done amongst the 200 stalls of Country Craft Market (Saturday mornings) or at the regular Helderberg Veldwinkel.

Walk in the Helderberg Nature Reserve and learn about our indigenous mountain fynbos. Challenge yourself on the Erinvale Golf Course - host to the World Cup of Golf in 1996 - or on the Somerset West Country Club course. Enjoy the many estates of the Helderberg Wine Route, visit Somerset Mall - one of the largest malls in the Cape, or have a meal at one of the many excellent restaurants. Somerset West has a variety of accommodation options which include hotels, guest houses, self-catering units and bed and breakfast establishments. There are also a number of conference venues available.
