The farmhouse is a typical Basque construction, the scene of rural life for centuries, which you will find throughout the length and breadth of Gorbeia.

 

Built with stone walls and tiled roofs, in addition to the dwelling, farmhouses used to be the centre of a farm and livestock farm, with farmland and outbuildings such as stables, barns and warehouses.

 

Today, many farmhouses are used as family dwellings, retaining their traditional charm. Some farmhouses have also been converted into tourist accommodation or places of experience, such as Atxineta Baserria (where you can pick blueberries) or Atxeta Baserria (cheese factory). Stay and visit the farmhouses and experience the rural environment up close.

Visit the Antzasti Museum to learn about the traditional Basque house, a pillar of our society on which an ancestral way of life is based.
