Odd spot! Doorstep skiing in Fez

A South African website is offering an apartment to rent in Fez, only 60 yards away from the ski slope ...

At less than Dh3000 per week for four to six people, this sounds like a steal. Where exactly the ski slope is in Fez remains to be seen.

The nearest ski resort to Fez is Mischliffen, just over an hour's drive from the city. Not exactly 60 yards.

Oh, and a postscript: The number of people who have been asking us about the swimming beach in Fez... oh, dear. Do look at a map.
