Your hosts

An international family, settled in the Helderberg.

Christine and her family relocated from Europe in 2019 and now call Somerset West home — along with two friendly Rhodesian Ridgebacks who greet every guest. The hospitality here is personal, not corporate.

Languages spoken on-site — worth knowing if you're booking for international guests.
