Tent hire in Edendale & Imbali »The Midlands weather — cooler, greener, mistier
Pietermaritzburg sits about 660m up the escarpment from Durban, and the climate change is the whole difference in a Midlands tent hire. It runs cooler and mistier than the coast, the summers bring proper KwaZulu-Natal rain, and evenings — especially up in Hilton and the Midlands — turn genuinely cold, so waterproof roofs are essential and sidewalls plus heaters are standard on evening and winter functions. The upside is the setting: rolling green hills, farm venues and misty country lawns that make the Midlands one of the country's favourite outdoor-wedding regions.
