All the buildings which make up Maroc Lodge have been inspired by Berber architecture.

In every living room and bedroom of the pavilions there are large bay windows and terraces so that guests can enjoy unrivalled views of the countryside. The owners are very proud that the pavilions were built without breaking a single branch of the hundred-year-old olive trees under which they are nestled.

The architect who planned Maroc Lodge have done everything possible so that guests can appreciate the natural surroundings of Morocco .


The stunningly beautiful landscapes make Maroc Lodge incredibly romantic. Flat grey slate flagstones have been used to construct the terraced roofs and the colours of the thick pavilions walls are reminiscent of the earth tones that surround you.

 

The interior design of Maroc1Lodge is a fusion of traditional Moroccan design and that of other cultures.

The décor is a harmonious marriage of natural local materials carefully worked by skilled artisans of morocco and placed alongside decorative objects brought from other parts of the world. All these beautiful objects once belonged to the owner of the residence. Ideal for a honeymoon.

Each pavilion has its own individual décor. The floors are paved with pale pink floor tiles (beijmats) from Fes and the “zelliges” friezes (colored tiles) are made in Amizmiz in tones of earth, rose, blue or green differing from one villa to other.

 

The walnut woodwork enhances the beige, salmon or light brown “tadlakt” (traditional wall surface based on lime)

 

Antique family furniture, such as a Napoleon III Chiffonier, sits side by side with other pieces from the ‘Directoire’ period and original family owned oriental paintings from the thirties.


The contrasts in style give a feeling of refinement and individuality to each cottage
