The Pays Basque is a triangle which stretches from Saint Jean de Luz near the Atlantic Coast’s Spanish border, through Dax to Mont de Marsan and down to Pau in the south. Offering a heady combination of seaside, mountains and countryside, our selection of Pays Basque villas has something for everyone. Biarritz at the bottom of the Bay of Biscay is France’s best known seaside resort, originally made famous by the wife of Napoleon, Eugenie. Surfing is a popular pastime here but there is also a glamorous town centre brimming with designer shops, excellent restaurants and chic pavement cafes. Dax has natural hot springs and some interesting Roman remains whilst Mont de Marsan has a distinctly Spanish feel with its tapas bars and colourful flamenco festival.
