Neighborhood info

The Midlands Meander is the most popular place in South Africa to spend a day browsing all manner of countryside iniquities. Marvel at artworks, browse among the craft stalls, sip on artisan beer, wine and fruit juices or try your hand at candle dipping or cheese making – if it has anything to do with countryside living or artistic pursuits, you will find it along the Midlands Meander. Food takes on a new dimension along this route where handmade cheeses vie for your attention alongside carefully crafted pickles, sinfully decadent chocolate and the freshest of organically grown produce. Stock up your larder you may, but the beauty of this neck of the woods lies in the sampling - in family meals enjoyed in the fresh air of the outdoors, where you can munch on burgers, curries, wraps, pizzas or gourmet delicacies to your heart’s content. Retail therapy aside, the Midlands Meander is a scenic paradise of fields, peacefully munching cattle and pastures filled with some of the country’s finest horses. At Whispering Waters you will find all these delights and more within easy reach for a day trip or two exploring this bountiful wonderland.
