This romantic walled property set is within 16 hectares of olive groves and beautiful gardens shaded by mature trees, situated in the lovely Ourika Valley. A world away yet only 34 kms (30 mins) from Marrakech Airport.

A large drawing room, elegant and comfortable with sunken fireplace, leads on to a raised dining room. The library with a wealth of books in several languages, is equipped with TV/Video and music system.

The master suite, with private terrace and steps down to garden and pool, includes a tented dressing room, spacious bathroom and adjoining small double bedroom ideal for children. There are two independent maisonettes off the main courtyard, one with a secluded planted roof terrace complete with fountain, sun beds, Berber tent for shade and spectacular views.
