On one of his legendary baloon rides, Sir Richard Branson discovered an old Kasbah amidst the Atlas Mountains and turned it into a part of his Virgin Limited Edition, a portfolio of unique retreats and hotels worldwide. Today, Kasbah Tamadot is a divine hideaway set in the foothills of the High Atlas Mountains, only one hour drive from Marrakech. The 27 rooms and suites, including nine Berber Tents capture the spirit and charm of traditional Moroccan design with a contemporary twist. Formerly the home of Luciano Tempo, the renowned antiques dealer and interior designer, most rooms are decorated with artifacts from his vast collection. Whether the rooms have a private plunge pool, an exquisitely carved ceiling, or a terrace overlooking the valley, it will feel like a Moroccan home.
With its intimate fireside bar and breathtaking terrace views, the stunning Kanoun Restaurant serves delicious local and international cuisine. The food combines local and international flavours, with home grown herbs and vegetables from the Kasbah Tamadot gardens. Dine al fresco around the candle-lit reflecting pool, up on the rooftop terrace underneath the stars or somewhere private just for two! Kasbah Tamadot offers you an authentic Moroccan home away from home with service at the highest level.
Go Wild – and do something good! Ulusaba Private Game Reserve is located in the western sector of the Sabi Sand Reserve near Kruger National Park in the Mpumalanga province of South Africa. It is part of Vigin Limited Edition and supports Sir Richard Branson’s charity project “Pride `n Purpose”, which focuses on the sustainable development initiatives and improving access to food, water and health services in the disadvantaged communities living adjacent to the Sabi Sand Reserve. Ulusaba Private Game Reserve has two beautiful lodges. Rock Lodge is on the summit of a koppie set against the backdrop of the Drakensberg Mountain range far in the distance. Each room has been designed with the colours of a different African tribe or region. Rock Lodge includes Ulusaba’s newest addition, Cliff Lodge and can accommodate a total of 20 – 25 guests in its 11 rooms. Safari Lodge is built along the banks of the dry Mabrak riverbed. Guests will love the sense of adventure as they cross the ‘Raiders of the Lost Ark’ style swing bridges between exquisite tree house rooms, created and inspired by local and natural materials, with elephants, bushbucks, lions and other local wildlife passing by. Safari Lodge can accommodate 22 guests in its 11 rooms. Ulusaba Private Game Reserve is the ultimate destination for spotting the ‘Big Five’! Almost nothing gets past our experienced Rangers and Trackers on the twice daily game drives.
Experience Spain like the old monks over a thousand years have already. The wine estate Abadía Retuerta is set like a jewel among the string of exclusive wine estates found along the Duero River in Spain’s north central province of Castilla y León. If the heart of the estate is the winery, its soul is the ancient 12th-century abbey, a beloved and carefully restored Spanish cultural heritage site.
The hotel LeDomaine that emerges from within the cloistered Romanesque-Baroque abbey walls is a refined five-star setting where guests enjoy the privacy of the privileged, the lap of luxury and the heart of the history. In the ancient hall, the 22 rooms and suites have been carefully renovated and blended with a contemporary style. Each room has generous views overlooking wide expanses of vineyards and vividly changing Spanish skies. Establishing a symbiotic harmony between people and nature was fundamental in Romanesque architecture and essential to the lifestyle of the monks as well. Quiet harmony resonates throughout the whole of LeDomaine. LeDomaine offers an exciting gastronomic experience for the most discerning palates and places where guests will find tempting dining options hard to resist. Also the estate’s own Abadía Retuerta wines seduce to relaxing hours within the cloister walls.
You love Tuscany and would like to enjoy it to the full and as authentic as you never have before? Then Castello di Casole is the correct choice. Castello di Casole opens its doors on July 1st and is not far from the mystic cities of Florence and Siena, on the gently rolling hills and valleys of Tuscany - a storied castle that dates back to the 10th century sitting in the most picturesque and untouched corner of this beautiful Italian region. Guests arrive in style while passing through the cypress-lined lanes that ascend to the historic castle, once home to the ancient and noble Bargagli family of Siena. Exquisitely appointed, Castello di Casoles’ 41 private suites effortlessly combine Old World Tuscan charm with modern luxuries, sublime comfort with elegance and sophistication. It is that secret place one might hope to discover along a country road – a place with graceful and intimate accommodations, inspired cuisine, a repertoire of activities and above all, knowing and attentive services. Castello di Casole, a Timbers Resort, lies at the heart of a vast, vibrant and vital estate that is home to more than 100 acres of vineyards and 30 acres of olive groves. The protected game reserve offers scenic footpaths and abundant populations of pheasant, hare, deer and boar. Endless trails invite guests to an exploration on foot, bike or horseback and the shimmering pools insist on relaxing soaks. The restaurant at Castello di Casole mixes unforgettable Old World favourites and New World sensibilities. The result is therefore an inspiring and original menu, featuring traditional Tuscan cuisine interpreted with a fresh twist. At Castello di Casole you can experience “La Dolce Vita” and can enjoy Tuscany to the full.
