Amazing location with the best view, comfiest beds and friendliest staff. It was a bit of an adventure to find it but well worth the search.

Had the fortunate opportunity to stay at this lovely guest house whilst on business in Cape Town. The decor is out of this world. Unfortunately, the owners were out of town, so I did not have the chance of meeting them, but the hostess in attendance did an excellent job! Service was excellent and the view over the Helderberg basin was something to write a novel about. Will certainly be back.

Large room with beautiful views. Very pleasant and helpful staff. The pillows were rather hard. The air con we were told would blow warm as it was cold weather but it does not and it would have been nice to have the fireplace going but we were unexpected as our booking for another guesthouse had fallen through. Lettie was extremely friendly and helpful.

Very friendly and welcoming, clean and neat Guest House. Beautiful location in the hills. As this was my first trip to the Western Cape I will definitely choose this Guest House again to stay over and I will definitely recommend it to everyone who plan to travel to the Somerset area.

Apart from all the normal expectations their willingness to help and accommodate was something to experience. Much appreciated. Then breakfast was what we can remember of how it should be done. De Molen just became our 1st choice to stay over in Somerset West.

We recently stayed at de Molen. The accomodation was very clean, breakfast was excellent. On top of all that, one is spoiled with the breathtaking views of the mountain as well as of the sea. We had to be in Somerset West. This was a little bit away from the hussle and bustle, but close enough. The neighbourhood is very quiet.

Fantastic all round. We arrived late, but we were greeted with a smile, very welcoming, fabulous view. Enjoyed breakfasts outside and morning chats with everyone. Spent most of our time out, but did enjoy drinks outside on the balcony and the bath. See you next time we are in town.

Beautiful surroundings, the pictures shown on this site must be outdated as our room was lovely unlike the bathroom shown on site. If you staying longer than a night I would ask for a room upstairs, incase you have a noisy stayer above you. Very comfortable bed. Recommend having the breakfast, very well priced. All the staff are friendly and pleasant.
