Very nice and convenient house in a beautiful environment!

The house and its garden has a lovely look & feel. It was clean, offers a lot of space and is well equipped. It is in the middle of Geopark which is really beautiful and perfect for hiking/biking trips. Also the beach is relatively nearby and of course Bilbao and San Sebastian are a must to visit. Last but not least we experienced a warm welcome from the host, communication was good, we received always a fast response in case of questions.

We spent a week in mid-September at the house and were very happy with the experience. Even before arrival, we received quite a few recommendations from our hosts on where to shop, dine and take part in other activities in the area.Upon arrival, we were met by our incredibly friendly host, which was welcome, and were given a tour of the space. The house was clean and well furnished, and the 1.5 bathrooms were perfect for our party of four. The kitchen was big and well stocked with equipment, including quality pots and pans, dishes and knives. We were also pleased by our hosts’ prompt responses to our queries throughout the week.The house is located at the base of a high valley, in an incredibly beautiful location surrounded by mountains and farm animals - cows, horses, sheep and ducks. The large Cinqueterre-esque town of Mutriku is only ten minutes away along the coastline, where there are wonderful restaurants, bars and two stunning salt-water pools.The house also sits directly adjacent to a narrow stretch of the Camino del Norte, a walking trail that extends from the French border (Irún) all the way to the northwest corner of Spain (Santiago de Campostela). During our stay, pilgrims walked past each morning and waived as we sat outside with our breakfast.If green expanses, dramatic landscapes and peaceful vibes are to your liking, you will love these accommodations.

Lovely house, peaceful location.

The house is set in a beautiful valley. Lovely decor and good facilities throughout. Spotlessly clean and warm. Nice outdoor space. Plenty of room for 6. Communication from owners was excellent and they were very helpful with our late arrival. 10 minutes from beautiful Mutriku. Car essential. Some lovely beaches and fishing villages within 30 minutes. Good info pack to help plan the week. We loved visiting sidreria saizar where we had steak and cider from the barrel. Great meal at Piper in Mutriku. Day out in Bilbao also great. It is well located halfway between Bilbao and SAN Sebastián. Bear in mind the valley of Olatz is located 10 minutes along winding country roads from Mutriku. We all agreed it was the best Airbnb/HomeAway we have stayed in. Would definitely return if we came to this area of Spain.

Das Haus ist wirklich sehr zu empfehlen. Es liegt in einem kleinen, idyllischen Hochtal wenige Minuten vom Meer. Im Haus findet sich alles, was man braucht, die Zimmer sind geräumig und ruhig. Die Kommunikation mit der Vermieterin klappte perfekt.

Wundervoll und idyllisch!

Traumhaft in einen kleinen Tal oberhalb von Mutriku gelegen. Es war sehr erholsam. Alles wie beschrieben, sehr nette und unkomplizierte Vermieterin. In Mutriku gibt es ein schönes Naturschwimmbecken und Wanderungen durch den Geopark sind möglich (und schön!). Erdbeeren asko! 😊

Ruhiges, gut ausgestattetes Ferienhaus

Wir haben 6 Tage in dem Ferienhaus verbracht. Die Einrichtung und Ausstattung ist funktional, recht neu und lässt kaum Wünsche offen. Die Lage ist abschieden und ruhig, also im Vergleich zu den touristischen, teils überlaufenen Küstenorten genau das, was wir suchten. Wer den etwas längeren Weg zu den Stränden der Region nicht scheut, dafür aber mehr Wert auf Ruhe und Entspannung legt, ist hier richtig. Check-In und Check-Out waren unkompliziert, die Einweisung vor Ort sehr freundlich, ebenso auch die Unterstützung bei Fragen.

Vacaciones perfectas

La casa perfectamente limpia, grande y espaciosa, muy cómoda , no le falta nada. Cuidado el más mínimo detalle, y decorada con mucho gusto. El entorno de cuento, rodeado de naturaleza, vacas , caballos, los niños alucinaron. Y los anfitriones... maravillosos. Ainara super atenta, nos dio todas las facilidades, estuvo pendiente de cada petición y duda que teníamos. Nos dio ideas de que hacer , restaurantes, rutas, y fueron flexibles en los horarios. Repetiremos sin dudarlo. El tienpo nos acompañó, asi que simplemente nuestras vacaciones fueron PERFECTAS. Gracias !!!!!

Inmejorable

Hemos estado una semana en esta casa y la experiencia ha sido fenomenal. Casa amplia, limpia y con todo lo necesario. El entorno en el valle de Olatz espectacular. Bien situada para hacer excursiones y conocer el país Vasco así como para ir a playas cercanas, o simplemente para quedarse en la casa y disfrutar del precioso valle o hacer algo de senderismo. El Camino de Santiago le pasa por la misma puerta. Ugaitz y Ainara amables, atentos y muy flexibles, tanto para la entrada como para la salida. En definitiva, inmejorable.

séjour formidable

Nous avons passé un super séjour dans la maison d'Ugaitz et Ainara. Le site de la maison est remarquable, on a du mal à croire que l'on est à 4 km de la mer. La maison a tout ce qu'il faut pour passer un bon séjour, les pièces sont spacieuses et décorées avec goût. En plus nous avons eu une météo parfaite. Pour finir Ugaitz et Ainara sont très sympas et accueillants, ils ont été à l'écoute de tous nos besoins. Bref, un séjour reposant qui nous a permis de découvrir une culture forte.

Una casa preciosa y bien equipada en una ubicación privilegiada

Nuestra estancia en esta casa de Mutriku fue simplemente perfecta. Tanto la casa en sí, que tiene todo lo que una familia puede necesitar (lavavajillas, utensilios de cocina, smart TV, barbacoa, sillas, hamacas, camas comodísimas, mantas, toallas, etc.) y está decorada con mucho cariño, como su ubicación en un entorno verde y pintoresco (por ahí pasa un tramo del Camino de Santiago) hicieron de nuestro viaje al País Vasco una experiencia inolvidable. La casa se encuentra en la pequeña población de Olatz, muy cercana a Mutriku y Deba, es tranquila y nos parece perfecta para descubrir Vizcaya y Guipúzcoa o simplemente relajarse en plena naturaleza. Ugaitz y Ainara fueron son geniales. Son super cercanos, amables y atentos; y nos dieron muchos consejos desde restaurantes hasta caminatas y sitios que visitar. Además, se toman muy en serio las medidas de higiene y desinfección de la casa, que encontramos impoluta a nuestra llegada y que también estaba equipada con gel hidroalcólico a la entrada. ¡Solo podemos recomendar esta casa y esperar poder volver muy pronto!
