Hello! We’re Rutger and Chantelle, and we’d love to welcome you to our homely and relaxed family retreat in Somerset West. Our home borders a peaceful green belt surrounded by trees – perfect for switching off and recharging. This is also Rutger’s hometown. After years of living and working abroad (including London and Nigeria, where we met), we moved back seven years ago to raise our family here. We love hosting and sharing our local knowledge, from the best wine routes to hidden gems. Rutger speaks English and Afrikaans (and understands Dutch). When not hosting, we enjoy the outdoors, hiking, fishing, and spending time in nature. Our hosting style is relaxed and respectful of your privacy, but we’re always just a message away if you need anything. We look forward to hosting you.
