Longfield Cottage - Accommodation in
Somerset West, Western Cape, South Africa
Suspended
between vineyards and the lovely Helderberg Mountain, Longfield
Cottage Accommodation in
Somerset West, Western Cape is ideally and centrally placed for a charming rural
experience. Situated high up on the foothills, with views all the way
to Table Mountain, across to Cape Point and both oceans, peace and
tranquillity come in large doses here. Your hosts, Pieter and Nini
Cloete, offer friendly hospitality, and can advise you on what to see
and where to go. As Pieter's family has been involved in wine in the
Cape for over 300 years, and Nini is a fully qualified and registered
specialist tour guide, they are able to advise and arrange private
tours to various places of interest.

There
is an abundance of very good restaurants nearby, and, being in the
heart of wine country, there are plenty of excellent wineries to
explore, within a few minutes drive down the mountain.
There are several international golf courses, vineyard walking and
horse riding trails, and places of historical and architectural
interest, all set in magnificent scenery.
Best
of all, after a long leisurely day of exploring the delights of the
winelands, is to meander back through the vineyards and up the
mountain, to relax and luxuriate in Longfield Cottage's glorious
setting. Those supremely comfortable little
cottages are set in a
garden filled with lavender and roses, next to vineyards, and paddocks
where horses graze. The open-plan sitting/dining area is furnished with
Cape Country antiques, complete with television, fireplace, for those
cosy winter evenings.
