𝗠𝗰𝗚𝗿𝗲𝗴𝗼𝗿 - 𝗦𝗺𝗮𝗹𝗹 𝘁𝗼𝘄𝗻 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗮 𝗯𝗶𝗴 𝗵𝗲𝗮𝗿𝘁: I had driven through here once many years ago. Well not through, because you can’t drive through this town.

You see McGregor has no through road.
You visit McGregor with a purpose… to drink coffee, meander through the tree-lined streets, stare at the gorgeous houses, sip wine, eat good food… well that was my purpose anyway.
It’s this somewhat isolation, which only adds to that nostalgic feeling of bygone days.
Unless you want to tackle the gravel road which connects the village with the N2 via Stormsvlei Pass.
McGregor was founded in 1861 and initially named Lady Grey, on what was then Over-den-Berg farm, so the history of this area goes back way more than we can imagine.
The name Lady Grey caused some confusion for the postal service as it shared it’s name with another town in the Eastern Cape.
In 1905 it was renamed to honor Reverend Andrew McGregor, a prominent figure in the Dutch Reformed Church.
The town lies at the foot of the Riviersonderend mountains, about 20km from Robertson.
It’s charming buildings, beautiful gardens and quirky shops will entice you to only want to stay longer.
This is one little town you need to try to visit at least once in your lifetime.
