chain, the site is set in mature wooded parkland with superb views
of the Pyrenees. The site has excellent facilities, including impressive
outdoor pool complex plus a new water park with heated indoor pool

famous for its legendary surfing. In July enjoy Europe's premier Surf Festival.

narrow streets of shops is well worth a visit.
The nearest beaches are at Bidart (2km) which also has a pretty village square with its classic Basque architecture.

Rhune on the open carriage mountain railway which climbs 2500 feet and offers

locations. Golf enthusiasts have a choice of several local courses.
