The ocean’s only rival here is the mountain. Between these two worlds lies Saint-Jean-Pied-de-Port, a village with eternal charm, its old buildings perched on the banks of the river Nive. Charles II of Navarre called it “the key to my kingdom”. It is here that Anne-Marie and Firmin Arrambide, the chef whom you will probably run into at the market, have turned a former stagecoach lodge with arched doorways made from sandstone dating back to 1729 into a place of total relaxation. Their son Philippe works in the kitchen and their daughter Sandrine is also part of the team who create an extraordinary culinary and sensory experience in a delightful family atmosphere.
