Location description

Biarritz, and the whole Pays Basque is an incredible area to be active in - miles of fantastic beach, with some of the best surf in the world, mountains rising out of the sea, giving excellent walking in summer, superb ski resorts in winter, rafting, cycling, climbing and many other sports.

Between the beaches and the high mountains of the Pyrénées, lies the fertile countryside of the Pays Basque interior. Nestled amongst rolling hills and misty valleys, one finds small farms and authentic villages, often centred round 15th century churches and the "fronton" - the local pelota wall.

A beautiful deserted beachThe beaches of the Atlantic coast are very clean, it's always possible to find somewhere deserted, even in August, and of course, they have great waves. There are beaches without surf that are ideal for children, and most beaches are supervised during July and August.

A seaside restaurantIf you like your food (and who doesn't!) the area is an absolute heaven. The NY Times recently pronounced the Pays Basque as the leading region in world cuisine - you will find many of the top restaurants of the world here, but also many reasonable priced, local places serving excellent, fresh, regional specialities.

The perfect meal?Of course, if you are staying with us, you will have a modern, well equipped kitchen at your disposal. Why not take a tour of the market, buying fresh, local produce from the artisans who have produced it and enjoy a meal on your terrace, a drink in your hand, watching the sun go down!

One of the most amazing things to watch, and to participate in, are the local festivals. The "Fetes de Bayonne" run for 5 days at the start of August and involve 300,000 people per day, basically partying and enjoying themselves, on the streets of Bayonne, night and day! There is an incredibly friendly atmosphere, with a specific children's day, a huge funfair, and visitors are welcome.
The local village fetes are also excellent - a big party and a good way to meet the locals!
