The Pyrenean Experience

WALKING HOLIDAYS and SPANISH LANGUAGE HOLIDAYS

Join us at our farmhouse for a taste of real life in a mountain hamlet of the Spanish Pyrenees. Our relaxed Spanish walking holidays combine local culture and custom - fiesta and carnival, sheep's cheese and almond chocolate - with a spectacular portfolio of country walks straight from the farmhouse door. These walks step out onto ancient Basque shepherding routes, smugglers paths and stretches of the Camino de Santiago, as they wind south over the Pyrenees.

Spanish language and walking holidays

Many of our walking holidays here in Spain can be combined with professional Spanish language teaching. These language holidays offer more than other Spanish language courses and more than a simple activity holiday. They combine gentle walking, professional Spanish language tuition and cultural activities to give lots of Spanish conversation practice as we head into the hills with Spanish teacher in tow; galletas and Spanish dictionary in the rucksack.

The Basque Carnival

At the end of February the tiny mountain hamlets of the Spanish Pyrenees explode with colour and life and we have a unique opportunity to combine our walking holiday with the local Basque Carnivals. Raw and primative - and only superficially hijacked by Christianity - many dances and rituals go back to pagan times.

Open-house and unlimited food and wine

Join us, our friends, neighbours and local Baztan people, for an informal and relaxed farmhouse holiday. We run an open-house policy for just eight or nine guests and - naturally - provide single rooms, walks, teaching, cultural activities, restaurant meals, unlimited food, wine and Patxaran… and washing machine… WITHOUT supplement!
