Caserío Pikamendi, a traditional Basque farmhouse, is located among the green hills that surround the small fishing town of Getaria, home to the explorer Juan Sebastián Elkano and haute-couture fashion designer Cristóbal Balenciaga. Built out of stone and wood over 250 years ago, the Caserío is set on 8 hectares (20 acres) of land and is enclosed by “Txakoli” vineyards, facing the Cantabrian Sea.
Throughout its history, the Caserío has served various purposes. It was originally built as a farmhouse but during the 1980’s the ground floor was converted into a “fois-grass” factory. In the early 90’s, the Caserío was carefully restored and turned it into the guesthouse it is today.
The Caserío’s location, 2km (1.2 miles) from Getaria, provides its guests with the opportunity to enjoy a relaxing break with breathtaking views whilst being a stone-throw away from world-class museums and restaurants.

Caserío Pikamendi is designed to lodge a maximum of twelve people divided into six rooms distributed between the first and second floors of the main building. Every room in the Caserío is unique.

Al the rooms have TV, internet and free wifi for our guests.
