IrelandRiad Imuhar is the most beautiful place to stay. Hamid built this superb guesthouse with the help of another local craftsman from traditional materials of this area ; Clay plaster over clay bricks , Clay wall interiors with dappled light brown and red hues, such a beautiful natural finish that the grand designs team would be raving about... So much texture , artistic touches everywhere. Large bedrooms with beds thst are so comfortable , perfect pillows . Ornate spacious bathrooms .
It's December.and cold here in the mornings and at night. Amazingly , you come through the front door and you feel heat everywhere . There are no heaters ! ..it's the clay walls. Natural storage heaters that emit heat at night and in the summer Vice Versa , the clay keeps the place cool. How about that for eco friendly.
Hamid is also a fountain of Knowledge on Amazigh culture. Really Cool. I've learnt a lot from him about the trees that grow in this climate, the language , it's beautiful alphabet. He kniows the desert , has camels and does treks and trips into it. The real deal.
He has made me the best meals i've had in Morocco , perhaps ever , garnished with herbs from the garden. A brilliant chef. Large colourful healthy meals..So good.
Himself and Maria have been the kindest of hosts.
I stayed here an extra day just to be here in this beautiful tranquil house.. You've got the desert outside and can walk right into it..Amazing..so quiet, still ..vast.
I highly recomend you stay here. It's beautiful.
