We very much enjoyed our stay at Alfonso's house. We were a large group of six adults and two toddlers and the house provided a relaxing rural setting from which to explore the region.
The outdoor area at this house is simply fantastic. A large yard with plenty of space for kids to run, a beautiful pool, play structures for the kids, and a very comfortable covered dining area. We spent most of our awake time at the house outside and were very happy.
The indoor area is also quite comfortable with a large living room. Of the five bedrooms: the kids bedroom is amazing and doubles as a playroom; for adults, the master bedroom upstairs and the double bedroom downstairs (with bathroom right next door) were the most comfortable. The other two bedrooms upstairs had some noise issues but were otherwise fine.
While there is not much in the immediate vicinity of the house, very reasonable drives get you to Bilbao and other nearby towns as well as grocery stores and amazing Basque restaurants. We highly recommend doing a lunch at Boroa Jaetxea!
Overall, a great house!
