About Espelette

Twenty kilometres from the coast, Espelette is the postcard of the inland Basque Country: red and green timbered houses, peppers drying on the façades, a fronton for pelota and shops selling the local ham, sheep’s cheese and chocolate. It makes a good base for the villages of Ainhoa, Itxassou and Sare and for the Rhune mountain.

From Biarritz station the drive inland takes about 40 minutes, ending at your hotel or guesthouse.

Highlights

  1. Strings of piment d’Espelette drying on the house fronts

  2. The pepper festival on the last weekend of October

  3. Ainhoa, a bastide village ten minutes away, and the Itxassou cherry orchards
