Lourens River Guesthouse B&B
Our family-run guesthouse is conveniently located in the heart of the Helderberg tourist area, only 18 minutes from the airport and half an hour from Cape Town.
We do not just offer spacious accommodation; you can become like part of our family or enjoy your privacy as all rooms feature their own entrance. Come holiday away from your busy lifestyle and unwind at our home.
Our guesthouse is the perfect base for touring the region, visiting vineyards, beaches and the nature reserve, taking advantage of the golf courses, restaurants and shopping malls in the vicinity. Start the day with our breakfast before exploring this beautiful coastal region, then return to relax in the comfort of our garden and large pool area. Small and run by people with dedication, that is what makes our guesthouse an ideal destination. Somerset in the year 1862 described by Rev William Moister:
"The village itself is a pleasing object as it breaks upon the view about a mile before it is reached. Travellers … behold the lovely little village slumbering in the centre of the valley with its neat, white-washed houses and well-cultivated gardens, with extensive vineyards and farmhouses in the distance, surrounded by rocky mountains which rise a considerable altitude.
Nowadays Somerset West has become larger and more modern, but we are surrounded by the Hottentots Holland Mountains with the Helderberg as our “name giver”. There are 600 acres of forest, natural scrubland and vineyards, yet it is only 10 minutes to the beach and we are close to Cape Town. The local attractions include the famous Table Mountain, Strand and Gordon’s Bay Beaches and the V&A Waterfront. Experience the Helderberg’s five main attractions: the historic Vergelegen Wine Estate, Helderberg Nature Reserve, whale and penguin watching off Hermanus, Monkey Town primate sanctuary and visit the people in Lwandle and its labour museum. Welcome to our family-run guest house. We are most conveniently situated in the heart of the Helderberg tourist area. Only 18 minutes to and from Cape Town International Airport and only half an hour from the bustle of Cape Town. Our guest house is the perfect base for touring. Wine farms, golf courses, restaurants and shopping malls are well catered for locally.

The bedrooms are individually decorated using antique furniture, crisp linens and fresh flowers.
