Jenny Dugmore
5 Rembrandt is situated in an exclusive area at the top of Somerset West, overlooking the sea and surrounded by mountains. The property has been renovated this year and offers luxurious rooms with every comfort for our guests. With the pandemic in consideration, we sanitise each room using steam and ozone as well as organic cleaners. Despite the recent drought in the Western Cape, our verdant gardens are kept watered by borehole water. We also provide backup electricity during the Eskom down time.
Your hostess, Jenny Dugmore, an entrepreneur in the IT and pharmaceutical industries, is also an ardent artist painting in oil and watercolour. Jenny is privileged to have painted with some of the top artists in the world and regularly paints en plein air in Provence. Jenny's paintings are featured in each room and are available for purchase.
Somerset West is well situated in the world renowned Cape Winelands and has a number of wine farms including Vergelegen, Morgenster and Lourensford. The airport is 20 minutes away and world class shopping centres in minutes from the guesthouse. There are many wonderful restaurants in close vicinity to 5 Rembrandt as well as beaches and wonderful hiking trails for the adventurous in the Helderberg Nature reserve. We are close to Betty's Bay with its penguin colony and an hour from Hermanus where whales arrive each year around August.
