20 Cummings Street boasts a warm and inviting atmosphere, originally renovated in 1993 as the Visser family's residence. In 2001, Mattie, co-owner and hostess, recognized the growing need for accommodation in Wellington and quickly transformed Cummings into a popular and highly sought-after destination within just three years. With Mattie's dedication and exceptional service, Cummings Guesthouse became a renowned name in Wellington's hospitality scene. In 2022, Mattie welcomed her daughter, Wilma, as the new manager, marking an exciting generational shift.
Nestled in a quiet residential neighbourhood in Wellington, the guesthouse is just a short drive or even a pleasant stroll away from the town centre. Its proximity to the church, high school, local coffee shops, and the town's museum makes it an ideal base for exploring the Winelands. The surrounding area is teeming with wineries, restaurants, and some of the world's most stunning hiking and mountain biking trails, providing a diverse range of activities for visitors.
