More than a rental, an "Etxea"
In the Basque Country, the house (the Etxea) is much more than a simple building. It is the pillar of society, the receptacle of family history, and the symbol of a deep anchoring in a land of traditions. At Vacances Pays Basque, we have selected properties that tell a story. Whether you are looking for a Labourdine farmhouse with oxblood red shutters or a neo-Basque villa overlooking the ocean, each house in our catalog has been chosen for its authenticity, modern comfort, and ability to make you experience the Basque Country from the inside.
The Architecture that defines a landscape
Basque architecture is immediately recognizable. Our charming houses respect ancestral codes: whitewashed facades that reflect the changing light of the Bay of Biscay, exposed half-timbering painted in that characteristic deep green or historic Basque red.
Inside, you will find the perfect balance between tradition and modernity. Century-old oak beams sit alongside high-tech kitchens, while Rhune stone floors accommodate sleek, designer furniture. It is this combination of past and present that is the signature of a stay with Vacances Pays Basque.
- Farmhouses renovated with bio-sourced materials.
- Open living spaces for conviviality.

Gastronomy and Traditions
Renting a charming house in the Basque Country means treating yourself to the freedom of living like a local. Imagine waking up in a spacious room bathed in the rising sun over the hills of Espelette. After a breakfast of Basque cake bought that very morning at the market, you set off to explore the hiking trails that wind around the Rhune.
At the end of the day, the large kitchen of your house becomes the nerve center of your vacation. It is here that you will prepare a Veal Axoa or squid à la luzienne, using fresh products brought back from your wanderings in Bayonne or Saint-Jean-de-Luz.
