About the villa

Luxuriantly landscaped gardens encircle this elegant house, which has evolved from its 1930s origins to become a luxury holiday villa, offering year-round comfort and excellent service. Within the grounds, a twenty-metre swimming pool is served by a pool house and overlooked by a poolside dining pergola; and table tennis and a private tennis court keep the active occupied. Within the house are high-ceilinged rooms, sumptuously styled with rich fabrics, eclectic antiques and Egyptian tapestries, and equipped with mod-cons from air conditioning to WiFi and satellite TV.
 A spacious and gracious dining room is open-plan to the colourful living room, which itself opens out to a garden terrace; and one of two roof terraces is comfortably cushioned in Moroccan style, perfect for pre-dinner drinks.

In an ideal layout for two families or a group of friends, the four bedrooms in the main house are now complemented by two guest rooms in the Pavilion. And the whole ensemble is served by a dedicated long-serving staff of six, who include a butler and an experienced chef who will ensure that your stay is memorable and happy. The villa is just 13km from Marrakech, in a peaceful rural position. A superbly run house, highly recommended.
