Anne's house is in a calm and residential area between the beautiful villages of Bidart and Guéthary. There is a terrace, where we could do Yoga with a view of the garden. Anne knows the area very well and has good tips on where to go in the area. There is good public transport in the Basque Country, including train connections in Biarritz and Guéthary (!) and there are very good hiking trails (including one on the coast). We went surfing a lot and rented boards on the respective beaches. But despite these facts and because the areas outside of the village centers are not made for walking, you might want to think about renting a car.
