The recommendation of the day: Give your eyesight a break. Leave the grey of the city behind and treat your eyes to the colour of serenity: green. The best plan is to take a relaxing holiday in Spain and, more specifically, in the Basque Country. You will find peaceful little villages that are perfect for enjoying a stay in a country cottage, surrounded by nature.
In this area of Gipuzkoa you will learn the origin of the name Goierri, which means “high town”, meaning that you can enjoy some incredible views of nature that will heal you of any stress that may be weighing you down. Make sure that you find a great place to stay with views of the Txindoki mountain and follow a hiking route so you don't miss any of the secret spots.
In the centre of the Basque Country, you will find Aramaio, a municipality made up of several charming little villages. It is surrounded by mountains and meadows, in stunning shades of green. You'll find some fascinating and gorgeous farmhouses and flocks of grazing sheep, in a beautiful postcard town that you can experience for yourself.
If you'd like to enjoy both sea views and peaceful green mountains at the same time, you should visit Mundaka. Did you know that, according to the legend, its name is attributed to the Latin expression munda aqua, which means “clean water”? This could be due to its location, in the heart of the Urdaibai Estuary Biosphere Reserve, at the mouth of the Oka River. The unique coastal town is full of unique little spots. You can also visit the nearby hermitage of Santa Catalina, with its walls from the 19th century. A beautiful spot.
You will find this municipality in the east of the Basque Country, near Irún.

It's a beautiful and colourful town that invites you to explore every one of its streets.
If you're looking for a unique stay, you will find villas, cottages and countryside hotels with all the peace and quiet you need.
