Escape the frost and head to Morocco for some winter sun…
Winter weather is fast becoming taxing- and if, like me, you’re longing for a bit of sunshine anda cocktail by a swimming pool, you’ve come to the right place. Morocco is one of the best destinations for some winter sun, and if you’re looking for breathtaking dunes, a chance to ride a camel, and bask under hot summer days and soft starry nights why go elsewhere?
And if you are looking for somewhere to stay whilst out in Morocco, look no further than CV Villas. CV Villas offers beautiful handpicked accommodation in inspiring locations with flights, car hire and expert local support all included.
All of their Moroccan villas can be viewed here. Some offer the option to sleep up to 14, so why not grab a group of friends? Or perhaps head for a secluded getaway with your other half in one of the smaller and more intimate villas?
Destination 1 – Ouarzazate
Lying on the old caravan route between Marrakesh and the Sahara, the city is a certified UNESCO World Heritage Site with one of the best preserved Kasbahs.
Whilst there, why not visit the Atlas Studios? Created in 1983 and the first film studio to open in North Africa, it’s well worth a visit. You will discover wonders such as the Tibetan Temple, Egyptian palaces, Kasbahs and other surprises.
Destination 2 – Agadir
Destination 3 – Marrakech
There’s so much to learn about Moroccan cuisine and ingredients that walking tours of the street food stalls are available. Guides will talk you through traditional Moroccan cooking methods and ingredients and even show you delicacies such as cow’s hoof and snail soup.

I visited Morocco in 2014 and absolutely loved everywhere I visited. Marrakesh was brilliant for the bustling, busy vibe within the souks (which we did get lost in!) We also visited Fez and Essaouira which were both lovely. My favourite place though was Chefchaouen. This is the place up in the Atlas mountains where lots of the buildings are painted different shades of blue.
Overall, such a lovely country and I’d definitely recommend.
