Chambres d'hôte Askena
Court mais merveilleux séjour du 14 au 16 juillet 2012. Un site exceptionnel au coeur du pays basque. Très bien situé, à 10 min de Mauléon, proche des gorges de Kakueta, St Jean Pied de port, etc. Une ferme superbement restaurée. Si vous avez des enfants, ils seront émerveillés par la piscine et les chevaux. Si vous aimez le calme et la nature, vous serez comblés. Un grand merci à Gisèle et Alexis pour leur accueil très chaleureux.
Swimming in the Rolling Hills of French Navarre
We spent a short break at Azkena on the 9th and 10th of July, and it was absolutely great! The location is just magnificent, on top of a hill, with great views of rolling hills and little valleys, dotted with cows and sheep. You can only hear birds or cowbells, an ideal place to relax and get away from the stress of city life, peace and quiet is guaranteed. There is a warm swimming pool to enjoy even on drizzly summer afternoons and some swings for children. And the hosts, Gisèlle and Alexis are very helpful and friendly.
The B&B is an old farm that was completely refurbished 5 or 6 years ago. Our room was very large, clean and nicely decorated, specially the shower, and there was a TV set, the bed was made of wood, by their son-in-law, and it was very comfortable. The breakfast was continental: orange or apple juice, coffee, a chocolate crescent (“pain au chocolat”) and some crisp bread with butter and home-made jams. It is worth having dinner there, it costs €20 each, and we were given a large home-grown green salad, dish of Spanish ham, duck confit with homemade fries and the most delicious “piperrada sauce” we have ever had (a tomato sauce with onion, and a very tasty local green pepper), you could tell the tomatoes had been picked ripe from the garden and cooked straight away in their full flavour. For dessert, homemade apple pie. If you want to drink a bottle of wine, it is not included in the price.
Azkena is perfectly located to go on outings in the French Pyrenees (St Jean de Pied de Port, the impressive gorges of Kakouetta, where you have to pay €5 to go in, or the Holzarté gorge), or to visit Pau, the elegant capital of Bearn, which are all 1 hour away by car. Or you can just stroll along the local country lanes, and dirt tracks which connect the farms, hamlets, and little villages in a complicated network. Giselle and Alexis said that it was very easy to make a two or three hour tour of the surroundings, but we always took longer, never managed to find the right way and we finally had to walk back the way we had come… But the hikes were absolutely amazing, anyway, and we enjoyed every view at every turn of the way.
Azkena is a great place to get lost… by the swimming-pool!!
