The area is renowned for its state-of-the-art golf courses, of which the most famous is the Erinvale golf course, designed by the South African golfer Gary Player. Somerset West has a great infrastructure, the amenities of a premier holiday resort and a large shopping mall, Somerset Mall, with nearly 200 shops, boutiques, restaurants and more for your convenience.
