Marie has prepared her house to perfection! Really spic and span! The view is gorgeous and the terraces work really well (dining and lounge sitting on the front terrace!) Marie was in her little studio in the garden whilst we were there but she was extremely discrete and absolutely silent! My son fell in love with her lovely cat who would wait in the garden to see him! And the two horses in the adjacent field were a lovely surprise and both my kids fed them every morning! There's a little side entrance to the house which takes you directly into the laundry area, we put all our shoes (there's a big rack) and bags and outdoor stuff here - lovely and practical. This huge and spacious house is Marie's own house and so has everything you'd expect (and wish) to find (Really fully equipped kitchen (kettle, toaster filter coffee, electric steamer, mixer, Wok, even an array of baking things!) There were some roadworks whilst we were there (looked to be nearly finished) which gave a little noise to an otherwise VERY silent place! I think this was one of Marie's first rentals in the Airbnb system so she's not your typical airbnb host! Do check what's included in the price, we did our own cleaning and took our own towels to save some money! Marie provided the ben linens which were lovely. We stayed just for a week and managed to do most of the local sites (Espellette, St Jean (de Luz et Pieds Port), La bastide, Morleon, and the fun places like Train de Rhune, Lac de Cames and Base de Pop) without driving more than an hour. Food prices (farm shops and restaurants) are really great and make a great saving compared with the coast (which is very drivable for just the afternoon, though at peak time, you'll probably have to resort to the paying car parks in the big towns). I'd highly recommend renting this lovely house and you can contact me at anytime seeking info on this rental.
