Dar Bennis

 

traditional house to rent

Dar Bennis is a small 18th century traditional Moroccan house in the heart of the Fez Medina, on a small street just off Tala'a Sghira, the main business street of the medieval quarter of Fez.  The house has been carefully restored, using only traditional craftsmanship and materials.   It features hand-painted and natural cedar ceilings, windows and doors, carved plasterwork, stained glass windows, decorative ironwork, handmade zellij mosaic floors, and a rooftop terrace with an amazing panoramic view of the Fez medina and surrounding mountains.  The house is simply decorated, to accent the beauty of the architecture, with antique and handmade furniture and textiles.
