We arrived at Matthieu's beautiful decorated, well kitted out and clean appartement where he had left us a lovely Gateau Basque. We could not have asked for a better host. He was very discreet, but when asked was thoroughly attentive and helpful in any way we needed, with local knowledge and suggestions for any issues we had. The apartment has a lovely little back garden with bbq, was very private, and lush. It was perfectly located -close enough to walk to the beach that has a great couple of restaurants, the centre of Bidart for food, drink and shops and a short drive to the local more commercial amenities you need, supermarket, petrol, pharmacy etc. All round fantastic.
