      Our cottages Menditarrena and Etxe Zaharria located at the beginning of many outdoor activities (hiking, climbing, downhill scooter, rafting, canyoning...), are also arranged for recreational stays, parties between friends or family reunion.

      The outdoor area offers a beautiful mountain environment. Breakfasts and catering meals can be served on request for groups.

      MENDITARRENA - 49 PLACES

      Located in the centre of the village of Bidarray, at the foot of the spectacular and impressive Iparla Ridge, the "Menditarrena" cottage is the starting and finishing point for the most beautiful hiking trails of the GR10 in the Basque Country. The equipment of our gîte d'étape in Bidarray makes it one of the most pleasant gîtes in the Pyrenees. Composed of rooms from 3 to 7 places with toilets in each of them, it is suitable for hikers as well as for groups.

      ETXE ZAHARRIA - 30 PLACES
      Located 400 metres from the centre of the village of Bidarray, at the foot of the spectacular and impressive Crêtes d'Iparla, the "Etxezaharria" gîte is the typical Basque gîte. Its architecture and setting offer a unique charm. Very popular for family gatherings, Etxezaharria can accommodate up to 30 people. Its location away from the village of Bidarray makes it its main asset for a pleasant, quiet and intimate stay in the heart of the mountains of Navarre. Outside you will find a private green space with the possibility of a barbecue and outdoor dining to enjoy this beautiful landscape.

    The setting is magnificent and the exterior appearance of the cottage is very pretty. Unfortunately the interior of the accommodation is dirty, smells musty, the mattresses are of poor quality and the bathrooms are dated and very dirty. The community kitchen is well equipped but hygiene is still sorely lacking (the cheese grater was still full of old grated cheese!). The reception went well and was very professional. It's a real shame for a place like this not to invest a little more in modernity and cleanliness.

    Nice setting, huge house but in need of some freshening up.. A terrace where we wonder how it holds up... But the setting is sublime and ideal for a long weekend in large groups

    Really a shame not to maintain this magnificent residence in such a beautiful site. Dirty interior, some furniture good for the recycling center, noseabonds kitchen and sanitary facilities, bedding from another time.... Really a shame!
