10/10 Exceptional
Jul 12, 2024
If you are looking for a countryside escape that is in a beautiful area, yet not very far from the big city of Bilbao and airport, this accommodation fits the bill. The setting is lovely.
These modern suites have full height windows with doors that allow an unhindered view of the beautiful forest from anywhere in the room. Electrically controlled, full window shutters are in place for those hot days. Our suite, Haritza, is very large with a super king sized bed and a huge walk-in shower. There is a living/dining area with a couch and large TV as well as a kitchenette, that allowed us to cook some meals. We also had our own secure wifi router signal !
The swimming pool is pristine. Lay on the sun loungers to relax under the sun or the umbrellas. Watch the hawks, martins, cranes fly by. Maybe you will see the deer as well.
The staff are very helpful and friendly, like all the people we met in the Basque area. Breakfast was a treat. You can have your eggs cooked to order and enjoy a selection of prepared fruits and beverages. Sit inside or outside, if you prefer.
You will need a vehicle however, if you wish to explore the area but even short trips are very rewarding.
After just 2 nights, we decided to extend our stay for over a week ! For us, Basoan became our hub and returning after a day out, was like coming home. If you enjoy the countryside, nature, peace and quiet, then this accommodation is a great choice.
