About Sare
The last French village before the Navarre border, Sare has kept its farms, its pelota court and its festivals, and it receives visitors on foot as much as by car: the caves, the Rhune train, the ridge paths and the ventas of Lizarrieta are all within a walk. Hotels and guesthouses are small and family-run, and the road in from the coast climbs through some of the prettiest country in the Labourd.
From Biarritz station count about 45 minutes on the road, ending at your address in the commune at the fixed €69.
