12 Picasso Close, the views, the superb apartments and the hospitality of Dorothy is all that needs be said. We spent 5 wonderful days here. The location is superb with sweeping views from the wrap around balcony, the mountains behind and to the sides, the town of Somerset West below and Strand and the Indian Ocean in the distance. It is an ideal location to base yourself, the airport is a mere 20 minutes away, the beach at Strand approx. 10 minutes and within minutes you can dine at the wine estate of your choice.
The Restaurant at Rust en Vrede, a Dorothy recommendation, is superb, you can have a superb steak with a red wine pairing for just R300 (approx. £15 €18 $19).
The apartments themselves are very modern, well furnished with all the necessary amenities. Dorothy was a superb host, nothing was too much trouble and offered us valuable tips on what to visit and where to dine. We will be back in Somerset West soon and there is only one place for us- 12 Picasso Close.
