L’emplacement et le calme !

Rien à dire !

The feeling of stepping into care when you first arrive. Our beautiful host welcomed us with such warmth that we were instantly at ease and made to feel at home. We had a beautiful view overlooking the sea at the back with stunning sunsets every evening. Our room had large amounts of storage for us to fully unpack and store our luggage out of sight so it felt like we were really able to settle in and enjoy a slower pacer of life. The weather was abnormally hot for the time of year, but so was England, and being on the coast with the windows fully open at night, feeling safe and secure in the location meant that we were cooler than we would have been at home in the City. We made use of the kitchen as I am both vegan and coeliac so eating out in Zarautz wasn't easy, however the local supermarkets had a wonderful stash of supplies at really affordable prices, so we saved eating out at lunchtime for our many easy day trips to Bilbao and San Sebastian. I absolutely loved the host (and I'm so sorry I didn't write her name down so I could get the correct spelling and pronounciation), she was a joy to spend time with, and my pigeon Spanish/more fluent Italian and occassional French words along with her much greater understanding of English, meant we used lots of expressive gestures and humour to communicate. She was also a complete angel when she found out I'd hurt my foot after slipping on some steps and helped with getting medical support and finding a pharmacy that was open on Sundays. Thank you so much and we will tell everyone about this beautiful place to stay.

Nothing about the property or owner, but the weather was mad - intense heat and humidity while we were there, and we arrived just in time for the local San Pelaio festival which ran day and night over a number of days and as someone who likes my sleep, it was interesting being woken up at 3am to fireworks and live music starting out of nowhere. Had it been cooler and I hadn't have hurt my foot, perhaps we would have been able to participate in it more and understand more of the local culture and traditions, but it was a case of using Zarautz as the base. I'm also sad I didn't get to go walking along the Camino and to the local Parc Naturale, but again that was due to heat and humidity and my foot not being stable enough for uneven ground.

La ubicación es ideal, cerca de todo, y muy bonito
