Our take

Assoufid is the Marrakech round people talk about afterwards, pure desert golf with the snow-capped Atlas Mountains behind almost every shot.

• Serious golfersNo water, hardly any wind and a dead flat walk leave the scorecard entirely in your hands, which is the point: Niall Cameron's desert corridors show you exactly how straight you drive it.
• Higher handicapsFar kinder than desert golf sounds. Not a single water hazard, the air is usually still, and buggies are there when the Marrakech heat bites. You will lose a ball or two to the scrub and still enjoy every hole.
• CouplesTen kilometres from Marrakech, so one of you plays while the other takes the souks and the riads, then you meet for dinner in the city.
• Buddy tripsWith Samanah and Noria playable from the same base, Assoufid anchors a three-course Marrakech trip nicely, and the clubhouse restaurant is worth lingering in once the golf is settled.
