My Swedish friend Charlotte has the most amazing place in Bidart.
A parc of 14 hectars, a castle and a renovated farm that has kept all the initial charm with beams and stone walls, yet adding modern confort. Charlotte has herself decorated each of the rooms. She has had an ecological attitude from the beginning, using ecological material and geothermic heating. Her hotel was the first in Pays Basque to obtain the eco cerfitication label. I wanted to make this right, she says, I wanted to stay true to the basque culture and be respecful towards the environment.
There is also another building called the Conciergerie, which has room for 14 persons. When I went there, a golf playing group of friends had rented it. A faboulous dining room with a huge table and an indoor pool completes the picture.
Have a look at her site. The photos are pretty, but I assure you, it is even better for real!
