Dar al Hossoun
Once home to landscape designers Eric Ossart and Arnaud Maurières, Dar al Hossoun was originally a treasure trove filled with green riches gathered by the masters of dry gardens. Maybe you’re headed to the Honey Road or a keen botanist in search of the rare and exuberant, either way Dar al Hossoun is a lush, South Moroccan labyrinth to stay lost in.
Dar Zahia
Inside the ramparts of Taroudant, the Berber settlement cradled by the Atlas and Anti Atlas mountains in the Sous Valley, is Dar Zahia, a guesthouse by Marc Belli. The plan was to call it ‘Berber’ house, instead, it was named after his partner by the same townspeople who helped build it. The artistic director and self-taught landscaper continues to mold the redesigned house - made of adobe walls, argan wood, terracotta bricks and bejmat floors - with the addition of two new suites overlooking the moonflower (‘Ipomoea Alba’) framed courtyard. Offering a reason to leave as soon as you arrive, just a short way beyond the city walls lies a pleasure garden in a barren olive grove. Guests can sleep and stargaze in one of five pavilions on walnut wood beds, cloaked by woven sliding doors.
