Outside Facilities
The very large garden is on the side of a hill, so it is all terraced, well balanced between sunny and shady places. It is watered by three natural springs, which ensure it is green and cool in even in the hottest time of the year. Midway between the house and the pool is a large Barbecue terrace, with a table that can seat twenty people. There is also a second BBQ by the pool. It has been extensively replanted, and had a lot of restoration work done. There are several new paths and all the dry stone retaining walls have been repaired or rebuilt.

There is a tower Folly – ideal for playing hide and seek, or sitting undisturbed with a good book. The garden is now probably the most exciting garden in Tangier – at least that is what the many visitors have said. Amongst the hundreds of plants (some of them very unusual) are hundreds of agapanthus, canna lilies, arum lilies, papyrus, bougainvillea, roses and wisteria.

Because of the spring water there are three “bassins” in the garden which conserve water; these are covered with water hyacinth, water lilies, and although very attractive are a hazard. They should be pointed out to you as soon as you arrive to avoid any danger. At the bottom of the garden is the large swimming pool and new pool house. The pool is not heated. In the pool house there are two changing rooms, a small kitchen, a loo and a shower. There are plans afoot to build a second barbecue which will make the perfect lunch spot in a sheltered terrace to the side of the pool house even more useful. The pool is looked after by the head gardener, Yassine.

Two gardeners look after the garden. Yassine is the head gardener and is responsible for the swimming pool. Yassine takes great delight in talking to visitors about anything in the garden.

There is a compulsory extra charge of 4,000 dirhams for the nine seater vehicle supplied for guests' use. Abdul Latif will meet you at the airport in it (he will arrange extra taxis if you are a large party). It is insured for you to drive yourself, or Abdul Latif can chauffeur you. Abdul Latif will do all your grocery shopping, unless you prefer to do it yourself. There is a landline for incoming calls, and a Moroccan mobile with a pay-as-you-go card for outgoing calls.

Local Area
Tangier is two kilometres away. More raffish than Marrakech, it has a fascinating history. The Phoenicians, the Romans, the Portugese, the English have invaded it, and then in the 20th Century it was governed by an International government from the first world War until Morocco became independent in 1957. Although it has had all this outside influence, it has always kept its Moroccan heart. Doing the groceries is a real experience that we have lost in the West. There is a thriving European community, many restaurants, fantastic beach, golf and tennis. Artists and writers have always been attracted to Tangier, and this is no less true today than before. There are several galleries in Tangier where you can browse the local works.

Directions
Atlas Blue, Royal Air Maroc and Air Arabia all fly direct from London to Tangier, or the ferries from Algeciras or Tarifa in Spain run very frequently. In either case, Abdul Latif will meet you. No one can ever find Dar Tangier without knowing the road. There are no signposts and it is very complicated.

Local costs to be paid:
4000 dirhams in cash for car rental.
