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”. Anne-Marie and Firmin Arrambide - the chef whom you will probably run into at the market - have turned this former stagecoach lodge into a place of total relaxation. Their son Philippe is in the kitchen and their daughter Sandrine also works alongside them to assure you a culinary and sensory experience in a delightful family atmosphere.
