The owners welcome was first class, and although we didn't speak French or Spanish Carmen did her very best to inform us of what to do and where to go.
The apartment was spotless and well equipped, with some local shops and supermarkets near by.
We discovered new areas of the town daily, and always seemed to hit the shops at siesta time,(my wife said this is deliberate, to save me money)
There was a market near the church in the old town, and we bought some delicious filled breads.
The apartment is about a 10-15 min walk to the train station, where you can get a return to San Sebastian for under 5 Euro, and the trains are very frequent.
If like us, you have a car, there is plenty parking around the streets, maybe not always infront of the building, but minutes away.
You are a kilometre away from the French border, so there are multiple options on where to go. We drove to Bordeaux (2hours) Lourdes (1hour 40mins) Barrittz ( 20 mins) and Bilbao airport was 75 mins.
At night if you stay in, you can sit out in the sun on the front balcony, or in the shade on the rear balcony, either are well equipped with seats and tables.
Sitting sipping Sangria (or Carmen's home-brew cider, not for the faint hearted) was a great way to wind down.
This is the first time in years we have not done the packaged all inclusive, and it will be years before we will again.
Again, we thank the owners for their warm welcome, and beautiful apartment, anyone who books this place, will not be disappointed.
