From our guide to Morocco
Wafer bricks zigzag round the patio, water trickles, birds chirrup: all is peace. Restored with a Tuscan touch by former owner and talented designer Christiane Mèche...
A great ocean contemplation spot. The new mansion perches on the cliff edge daring the wild ocean to reach up and grab it. Nicole has put all her love of Moroccan crafts into her kasbah...
Be prepared for contrast of all sorts, look forward to the unexpected and learn to trust those hooded figures - not sinister, just well protected against the contrasted and unpredictable elements. And decide from the start to take time. Morocco cannot be rushed. The country and the people are open to those who adapt to their rhythms and don't dash headlong from sightseeing to bracelet-buying to eating 'fast Moroccan'. Take the time to stand aside and watch. Look for patterns, gestures and expressions that reveal how things work, how people interact; you will relax, your senses of humour and humanity will take you inside the picture. Then you may fall for ever under the enchantment.
