About this property
Villa Helderberg – A Peaceful Retreat in the Winelands Set on a quiet country estate at the foot of the Helderberg mountain, Villa Helderberg offers a relaxed escape surrounded by a lush garden, poolside spaces, and mountain views. Recently renovated, the villa now features luxuriously upgraded rooms and cottages alongside a beautifully reimagined garden. Just minutes from award-winning wine estates, golf courses, and the beaches of False Bay, it’s an ideal base in the heart of the Cape Winelands. Located just 8 minutes from the white sands of Strand Beach, Villa Helderberg combines country calm with easy access to the city and coast. Guests can unwind in our lush garden with shaded corners and fireplaces, enjoy a swim in the huge pool, or gather at the cozy Lapa with its honesty bar and braai facilities. Secure parking, high-speed WiFi, and easy access to nearby tourist attractions make Villa Helderberg both comfortable and convenient. Somerset West, with its welcoming atmosphere and beautiful scenery, is perfectly placed between Stellenbosch, Franschhoek, and Cape Town. Our location is central to Somerset West with both malls, Vergelegen Wine Estate and the beautiful Helderberg Nature Reserve around the corner. Villa Helderberg offers something for holiday enjoyers, wine lovers, outdoor enthusiasts, and anyone simply looking to slow down and recharge. We are kid-friendly and welcome families from around the world! Enjoy our garden filled with wildlife like birds, squirrels, guinea fowls, African harriers, butterflies, mantis and much more!
