AUTHENTIC

We had a fantastic week long family holiday in this stunning villa. It was perfect for 6 adults and 4 children (including a baby). The property is even better than the photos and equipped with everything you could possibly need and very luxurious. The home cinema room was great in wet weather and the pool was fantastic in the heat. The children visited the bakery every morning and Ascain has all the shops and bars you need within easy walking distance. We loved being in the village but also only a short drive from the beach and the hills. Keyweek were very helpful and easy to communicate with. Thank you for a fantastic stay and we hope to be back next year.

La maison et l'environnement étaient en tous points conformes à la description et à nos attentes. La décoration exceptionnelle de très bon goût et la grandeur et la qualité de cette maison ancienne renovée avec un goût exquis nous ont permis à mes amis et à moi-même de passer une semaine de rêve.

Home management is handled by a separate company with friendly and helpful staff (they validated early arrival and late departure in agreement with owner for example). But we also had the opportunity to briefly meet the owner (and her colorfull father as well). House is located very close to the center of the Ascain village (remember this is rather country side ; not too far away but going to the beach will take a bit of time and will depend on traffic). So it is quite easy to do some errants (bakery, grocery store, restaurants, wine cellar, butchery, etc. are nearby at walking distance). House is huge with bathrooms on all bedrooms (almost all feel like parental suites). Decoration is wonderfully done, preserving the old style of this ancient building (which has been very recently renovated with much taste) mixed with more modern brand new touches (appliances, bathrooms, kids friendly home cinema room, furnitures and pictures). Basically, if you liked the pictures on the website... you will love the reality: it looks even better onsite !!! On top of that many extras are provided to help make the stay a fun one for everybody: piano, bycicle, table tennis, pala rackets, petanque set, etc. The garden is huge, which is great for kids, the view on the nearby mountain (Rhune) is fascinating, which is terrific for outside drinks or dining and the pool can be covered for safety, which is reassuring if you have a baby or a toddler wandering around. So overall a wonderful stay in this house which can contain and entertain a very large group or familly, in style and in a quiet environment.
