Griffon Vultures Potoks (wild horses)
Regularly we spot large birds of prey like the Buzzard, Kites, Vultures and Eagles as they soar on the overhead thermals looking for prey. Or flocks of migrating birds like Geese and Herons in flight formation passing over the Pyrenees.
We are located in a most unique French countryside setting, in the traditional Basque village of St Pee sur Nivelle very near Biarritz. (Europe’s No 1 surf beach) and within walking distance into the Pyrenees mountains. Within reach of famous walking routes like the GR10 and GR8 and the Pilgramage route of Santiago de la Compostela. The Spanish border is only 5 minutes away which opens up a total other dimension to this already attractive and diverse area.
While you are staying here at our retreats you are part of our family. Our Family consists of Myself, Fiona, JJ and our two small boys, Mika and Rio. We also have two dogs Magic our black labrador, who just loves a cuddle and Maia our little Marilyn Monroe.

The Cote Basque / Pyrenees Atlantic area enjoys a mild climate with lots of sunshine, naturally it does rain sometimes and this waters our romantic garden and vegetable plot and so we are pleased for the rain.
The surrounding area is one of unspoilt beauty and definatley a place to get close to and celebrate nature in all her glory. It offers wonderful walks, brilliant white sand beaches, and the magnificent and always inspiring mountains…
