The gorgeous countryside of the Midlands Meander encourages a variety of arts & crafts, wholesome cuisine & fresh produce markets. The Drakensberg mountains & the KZN beaches are both an hour and a half's drive from us.
Convenient for business in Pietermaritzburg but offering a peaceful getaway at the end of the day! A great halfway break if touring in the province.

The area is a treat for historians: the Victorian architecture of Pietermaritzburg, the French presence & the Anglo-Boer war history around Howick.

The Tatham Art Gallery in Pmb's city centre, is one of the oldest galleries in South Africa.
