There are many theories about the concentration of artistic talents in McGregor. Some say its geological magnetism, ley lines, high energy vortexes maybe even extra-terrestrial forces. The simpler explanation is that it's a beautiful setting in the middle of nowhere where creative people have found space to explore their art. Come and experience the 'energy' yourself.

Vrolijkheid Nature Reserve was once the home of a dozen zebras with unusual stripe patterns. They'd been chosen in the hope of breeding quaggas. The project failed and the stables and staff buildings now serve new purposes. In one of them, at the end of a circuitous bumpy track you will find Roy Reycraft and Pam. Don't be deceived by the PWD (Public Works Department) look of the place. Inside is a stage setting for Hansel and Gretel - doll's house miniatures and Pam's hand-crafted objects are all over the place.
