Guest Reviews

Reviews are only from people who have stayed there and booked through i-escape.

  • “We were upgraded to a garden suite which was excellent. However, we asked to hire the bicycles and were just told "no" and the evening meal was only average.”
    Laura, United Kingdom (22.09.11)

  • “A bit rough round the edges in general but lovely setting etc
    Rooms to dark and need better lighting. also sheets a bit grubby.
    Food was delicious - good choice on menu. Very helpful staff.”
    Rosie, United Kingdom (28.04.11)

  • “The place is really quite something. Fantastic location to trek (on mules if you wish) which the hotel is more than happy to organise for a nominal amount with a local guide. Quite remote so nothing local that i'm aware of but there are some village squares that you could stop at on the way etc”

  • “20 of us aged between 70 and 7 months spent five days at La Bergerie for a birthday celebration. The setting in the mountains is magnificent, and the staff unfailingly patient with the inevitable chaos caused by a large group. We all had garden rooms which were peaceful, spacious and ideal for sharing with kids. Meals were exellent and varied throughout, with the chef doing a special sitting for the kids which was much appreciated. Breakfasts were good with a choice of different warm pastries every morning, and fresh fig and apricot jams. When large groups came for lunch we ate in the shaded area by the pool so hardly saw them. Some of us did a couple of 4-6 hour treks with the excellent guide, Abdul, which incuded a wonderful tagine at his house. You can also walk to the Thursday market at Ouirgane near the new lake (no watersports yet), and there's a nice little new cafe/shop with a lovely owner you can walk to through the grounds for a coffee/lunch/change of scenery. Our only quibble was the huge quantity of chlorine (2 buckets!) chucked into the pool every morning - all the kids had rough patches of skin on their faces/faded t-shirts by the time they got back - not nice. Otherwise a beautiful place to relax away from the bustle of Marrakech and good value for money.”

  • “A charming location set in beautiful gardens and fringed by stunning views of the Atlas mountains. We were upgraded to one of the garden suites on the second night thanks to us having booked through i-escape. Accommodation was lovely and the owners and staff both charming. A peaceful, relaxing hideaway that set us up nicely for the clamour and intensity of Marrakech.”

Save to favouritesPrintMailLa BergerieThere's a wonderful sense of space here: 12 acres of open skies and and pine-scented air. From the rustic auberge, gravelled paths meander down, past an inviting pool flanked by trim lawns and white-cushioned day-beds, to lose themselves in terraced gardens bursting with rosemary, geranium, mimosa and lavender. Hidden among these are 5 stone-built bungalows, festooned with ivy, which house the spacious [r:MC018:garden suites]; further down is the original earthy-yellow inn, where 10 simpler [r:MC018:rooms] huddle around a patio garden. In the distance, rugged mountains rear up towards the peaks of the High Atlas, speckled with brilliant green pines and pisé hamlets camouflaged against the reddish earth. Hats off to the French pioneers who bought this fertile land outside Ouirgane and transformed it into such a lovely, peaceful mountain hideaway. It has since changed hands and we have heard mixed reports under the new ownership, so you might want to check our [reviews:MC018:latest feedback] before booking. But, if the service and food can be nailed, this has the potential to be a great midrange place to stay in the most accessible part of the Atlas Mountains.
