Sabine's traditional family home in the lovely village of Sare was perfect for our holiday. It is spacious, well equipped and near the village Spar shop. We loved the peace and quiet, the beautiful views to the hills across the tiled roofs and the undulating landscape full of spring blossom. We explored the area learning about its history, many of the villages having houses from the 17th Century. We also loved the local cheeses, breads, yogurts and the Gateau Basque. A short drive from Sare is the small mountain railway that takes you to the top of La Rhune where you can view the panorama of hills to the east and coast to the west. Sare is only about half an hour drive to the coastal towns of Biarritz and Anglet.
Check in was straightforward and Sabine was quick to get in touch to give us directions. We can highly recommend staying at Sabine's if you are visiting Pays Basque. We would have loved to stay longer and hope to visit again in the future.
