Where to stay
Kashan
A courtyard house in the Surijan cul-de-sac, and the room names are a glossary of Persian domestic architecture: dalan the passage, asmaneh the ceiling room, the iwan, the sarsayeh, the talar. Eight rooms, seven of them doubles and one sleeping four.

Single
A traditional house in the Farhang 31 alley off Fazel Naraqi Street, built around two separate courtyards: rooms are sold as main-courtyard or Mahboub-courtyard, and it is worth asking which you are getting. Twelve rooms in all, including a shah-neshin triple, a duplex for four and a four-bed with a balcony.
Single
Qajar-era heritage house in the Darb Bagh neighbourhood, a national monument with three separate courtyards, recently restored and listed as the most upscale heritage stay in Kashan - best for guests who prize old architecture.
Eighteen rooms in a house off Fazel Naraqi Street by Kamal ol-Molk Square, sleeping one to four; all but one have their own bathroom. One of the larger historic houses open as lodging.
