Siwa Villa inside - Dining area

Fifteen foot dinning table that will fit 10+ easily in the middle of the living area for when you all want to get together for lunch or dinner. There's is also a small table and seating area in the kitchen if you feel 15ft of space is a bit much for you bowl of cornflakes and coffee in the morning!

		The kitchen has a gas oven with five rings, grill and oven, fridge that keeps the beer cold even on the warmest days, double bowled sink, cooking utensils, plates, cutlery etc for 10. All the usual suspects from a traditional. English kitchen. Siwans cook on the floor, I don't know about you, but my back couldn't cope with that.
Kitchen

Salt Room - Sleeps 2 I know what your thinking. the Flint stones... well Fred's house is made of stone.. this one is made of mud. Two large single beds with their own built in bed side reading lights and cupboards are in this room. A large wardrobe and side table made from slabs of stone give ample storage space. A radiator at the end of the room takes the edge off those chilly desert mornings and a fan is high up on the ceiling for those summer nights. All beds are provided with fresh linen and towels that are changed regularly throughout your stay.

		Stone room - Sleeps 2 A large double bed with separate reading lights and cupboards on each side of the bed. A wardrobe, side table radiator and ceiling fan are also in the room.

Olive Room - Sleeps 1 or 2 Another twin room/single room depending on the size of your group.We just add another bed if your group is the maximum size of 10 people. It has reading lights for each bed, wardrobe and small cupboard.

		Palm Room - Sleeps 4 The four beds in this large room are made of palm trees, just in case you didn't notice.

If you're a kid, bags the top bunk! Even the top bunk has it's own reading light you can switch off with out getting out of bed.

		There are two large singles at the other end of the room, each with their own reading light. In the middle is a large chest of draws ( antique Italian we are told) and a wardrobe that is the biggest I have ever seen. There is also Angus's boat collection.

The fireplace backs on to the shower room making it more like a steam room when there is a roaring fire. The western toilet and shower are all new. A gas boiler heats the water supply and so provides a continuous supply of hot water.

Five plumbers and a lot of ...chats later, they got the idea we did not want an electric water heater that would do two showers and then take another half hour to warm up. It is a large room and a pleasure to have a long, long shower in.

		Bathroom and toilets Fresh towels are provided every few days by Mohammad, depending on your needs.

The water is from a spring that is similar to the one that provides the water for the Siwa Water factory that provides bottled water for most of the country, so it's pretty good.

	There is a large cupboard under the sink and shelves next to the shower for storing towels and shampoo etc.Under the stairs to the roof terrace there is another toilet and hand basin.

There is another separate shower room in the Steam house (on the left below) that has two showers in it.

		Living Room This is a large long room through the middle of the house. It is traditional for Siwan houses to have one large living room facing north south to catch the breeze that blows through the house through the day to keep it cool.

An open fire provides extra heat in the winter if required. Additional seating and cushions are available if all ten of you want to cuddle up. There are exposed palm tree beams on the ceiling making the room look like an English baronial hall. This is the traditional way of making ceilings in Siwa.

The lighting is provided by wall fittings made of salt giving a nice warm glow in the evenings.

The floor through out the house is a soft lime stone about 3 cm's thick and needed a five tonne truck to deliver! It took Penny nearly a month of solid tiling to get the floor laid, but it was worth it.

Through out your stay Mohammad the house keeper will be around to keep the fires burning in the house and on the roof using local olive wood and the kitchen sink free of washing up.
