Back to basics and open air pleasures, a stay like no other in a Berber hamlet deep in rural Morocco – a dream come true! Gisèle and Bernard welcome you to their magnificent Kasbah overlooking the village of Talamanzou, 50 kilometres from Marrakesh. Fresh air and a change of scene are guaranteed. The decor, in the purest Berber tradition, plunges you into another world of colour and earthy authenticity. The Kasbah is appointed in the style of a top hotel with seven comfortable and elegant suites (all offering spacious bedrooms with open fireplaces and traditional bathrooms finished in tadlakt, plus solar-powered heating). There is a sun-bathing area, a lounge with a plasma-screen satellite TV, an open fireplace and a library, all adding to the majesty of the original Kasbah. The large swimming pool nestles in a wonderful garden full of local plants and wildlife, including a rose garden, an olive grove and many palm trees. The only things to disturb the peace are the gentle splashing of the fountain and the chirruping of the birds.
Standards of service are in keeping with the opulent surroundings and there is a driver to cover transfers to and from Marrakesh airport, and visits and excursions in 4WD vehicles are available on request. The nearby valleys are full of interest with the moussem or local festivals,
the wealth of handicrafts and hikes through unspoilt countryside. Marrakesh is close enough for the Kasbah to offer the ultimate luxury of being able to enjoy all that the Red City has to offer while staying in a heavenly haven of peace and tranquillity.
Discover the secrets of this imposing Kasbah. Let yourself be seduced by a little detour right off the beaten track and get to know an undiscovered world within a world. Dare to explore.
