Hontanx Bell Tower

Studio was well equipped, comfortable and quiet. Bathroom clean, shower good with lots of hot water. Pool area lovely, lots of sun loungers. The area outside the studios looks very desolate and not well maintained, this may be due to the location - we were on the sea side of the complex which is across the road from the main facilities and the pool area which is the forest side. Signage to get there very poor (Google maps takes you to the locked sea side location, the reception is across the roundabout on the forest side). No signs that we could see. Be aware that when we got to our room the bed was not made up - when we asked at reception we were told that bedding and towels were not included - when I showed them the page from Expedia listing saying they were included they gave us towels, bedding and toiletries. WiFi is extra (€6 for 2 devices for 2 days) but is excellent (note you cannot swap devices from the first one that is connected). Good location to explore the area and for a few relaxing days by the pool.

It was a wonderful pleasure to stay at Auberge Ostape. Our only regret is that we only stayed two nights. It is hard to get to and incredibly worthwhile once you get there. The staff is most gracious and the restaurant is extraordinary. We hope to return.

Farmhouse like setting in countryside. Small village in walking distance. Quiet and serene. Surrounded by hills, trees, country. Room decor could be upgraded. Coffee maker in room would be a plus to the experience. Hosts are helpful and friendly.
