Cottage holiday rentals in Las Arenas, Elexalde

Antonio is a fantastic host. Super responsive and very helpful especially with recommendations for local walks and for helping with animal health certificate requirements for returning to the UK. The house was big enough for the 11 of us and there was plenty for all of us to do for the whole week we were there. Any issues we had were resolved incredibly quickly by Antonio. Just a short walk from the house is a lovely little cafe that sells baguettes, coffee and some alcohol - very reasonably priced but please note only takes cash which caught us out on our first visit. We visited Balmaseda a couple of times which has an incredible bakery which I would very much recommend. The train station is less than 5 minutes walk but we didn’t get the train whilst we were there - it may have been quicker to get to bilbao and something to check out if you visit again. Thanks for having us Antonio.

Really lovely hosts always ensuring everything was just perfect. Very thoughtful leaving little local gifts of yoghurt and fruit for us. It is a very quiet place, great views and walks close by. I would say hire car important to explore the local Urdaubai area.

Great place and very accommodating

We had a great time at Ana's place, the perfect location. Everything was clean and tidy.

We were very comfortable. Beautiful experience in a spectacular setting. very comfortable at home. If we have the chance, we'll definitely be back

Fantastic hospitality the people of Catalan are very friendly and the property was amazing but you definitely need a car to stay here as there nothing around no shops

The stay at Carmen's place was great! Communication with her from the first moment has been very good and has clarified all the doubts that could have arisen for us! The house is great and has enough space for all the guests it marks in the description. We have gone with two babies under 2 years old and they have also really enjoyed the stay! The shame is that it has made us bad weather and we could not enjoy the garden but we did not have the bbq of which the accommodation has. All the stays are equipped with what you need and the heating in autumn winter works great! The environment of the place is beautiful so in good weather it has to be a joy to enjoy it! Don't hesitate to book your stay at Carmen's place! Thank you so much for your kindness Carmen! ☺️☺️

Excellent welcome. Very comfortable and clean I recommend

The perfect and impeccable accommodation, it is just as seen in the photos. As for Aitor, the host, out of 10. Very friendly, good communication and super willing to help with whatever is needed. Totally recommended!!

Myself and my extended family (including a toddler and a baby) stayed in Lucía's place for 5 nights. We loved it. Very spacious home with a nice private outdoor area. Also a covered outdoor dining area. The house was a very close walk to Mioño and about a 30 minute walk to Castro urdiales. There was plenty of parking outside the house. I would highly recommend if you are looking for somewhere to relax with your family that feels rural but is still close to amenities. We loved our stay

Great Peaceful Location, away from the usual crowded touristy places, but with lots to do and visit in the area, for interesting and fun day trips and beach only 50 minutes away.

The house was really nice. As shown and had everything we needed. Great to be able to bring our dog, and the two outdoor spaces were a real bonus. The kitchen is very well equipped, the beds are extremely comfortable, and the shower is excellent. Restaurants nearby were very overhyped on Google. Lovely walks straight from the house or a short drive, and a lake about 20 mins away was great for a swim. We didn’t meet the owner, but communication was fast and helpful.

Great place in a beautiful location with views out to the mountains. Marysol was a terrific host who responded to all queries instantly. She was even able to help with transportation in and out of Bilbao on Europa League Final day. Thanks again for a great experience.

The house is spectacular, beautiful, well-equipped and with all the necessary details for a short stay that make a difference; such as coffee, sugar, oil... The environment is very nice and quiet. In addition, there is a bar right next door where you can eat or have a drink. Ana treated us incredibly well.

The place is beautiful and you have a lot of privacy as it is set back from the main home. It has everything you need to have a wonderful day. Thank you

This house was absolutely breathtaking. Although it is not in a main city it is definitely close by and worth a stay. This place overlooks a beautiful vineyard and makes you feel like you're in a little oasis. The outdoor entertainment was amazing with an outdoor kitchen and barbecue that allows for wonderful nights enjoying your time. The views are incredible, the town is peaceful. Hosts were extremely kind, helpful and gave great recommendations.

Joso and his mother were wonderful hosts! This is a unique house that fits perfectly with the vibe of the Basque Country! Highly recommended!

Spacious clean home, with a large outdoor area. Fully equipped home. Peace, quiet. A home located a short distance from the beaches. Very good communication with the host. Recommended

A wonderful accommodation in a beautiful environment. Really enjoyed the tranquility, the cottage and the surroundings. Upon arrival, the fireplace was already on and there was a delicious homemade cake ready and fresh eggs. Communicated well with the host using Google Translate.

Our stay at "El Alto del Fresno" was delicious. The house is surrounded by nature and tranquility and also overlooks the sea. The house was very clean and very spacious and had everything you need. I want to particularly thank Carlos and María for their kindness and closeness in the treatment. At all times I was able to contact them and they made it easier for us to change last minute without any problem. I also want to recommend to anyone, who has not been to this region, who is approaching. Castro Urdiales is a beautiful seafaring city and in addition to having some beaches and a splendid walk, it eats well anywhere. When we return from vacation, we will certainly return to "El Alto de Fresno" :-)

Hi Susanna Janeen and I loved staying in your cosy stone cottage by a river with a beautiful timbered setting. Easy to to, convenient location as we had a car. Well equipped, Comfortable and with great innovative furnishing ideas. Very interesting village close by with everything one could want. thanks a lot, Jon & Janeen.

Fully equipped house, the first time I've found all kinds of kitchenware and cleaning products. Very spacious and comfortable, the porch and garden are a luxury, located in a very quiet village with sufficient services. Very well located, close to all areas of interest. Totally recommended. I'll definitely be back.
