Riad el Fenn
Enjoy a stay at Riad el Fenn, Vanessa Branson’s luxury retreat in the medina of Marrakech.
On the first night, you will have a Moroccan wine tasting session with a sommelier and be served an unforgettable seven course tasting menu.
You will wake up to a Moroccan breakfast served on the roof terrace. This will be followed by a food tour of the medina for two, where you will see the communal bread ovens, spices and Moroccan style barbeques.
You will then experience a traditional Moroccan home-cooked lunch and have a choice of a cooking class or a Hammam spa for two in the afternoon.
You will taste another seven course gourmet menu on your second night, again with matching Moroccan wines which you will be talked through.
All dietary requirements can be catered for - just e-mail us in advance to let us know.
The aim of the weekend is for you to experience the delights of the region’s food and get to know the wines.
You have the option of staying for an extra night, with a trip to the wonderful Kasbah du Toubkal in the Atlas mountains for lunch.
Hotel:
Riad el Fenn in Marrakech, Morocco -
“Vanessa Branson’s ultra-chic riad is part family home, part artistic retreat and part commercial business. The uniquely minimal décor is dotted with delectable details from Murano chandeliers and works by acclaimed international artists like Bridget Riley. A creative and stimulating ambiance with an emphasis on comfort and style.” – Hg2
“The unassuming doorway of this labyrinthine, 18-roomed property, leads onto three inner courtyards: pass through the a sensually lit courtyard with marble fountain and a rose-petal-filled basin, past a screening room, through antique carved wooden doors, up a tiny flight of steps to a WiFi'd library …Riad El Fenn is the place for creatives to stay.” – Mr and Mrs Smith
