Pension Amaiur is one flight up an ancient timber staircase in the oldest building in San Sebastian.
This tiny, romantic hotel has many attractive features.

This was the only street to survive the destruction of 31 August 1813, when English and Portuguese forces laid siege to the city's Napoleonic occupiers.
The nearby Santa Maria is a spectacular church.

The old city, historic and charismatic, has dozens of pintxos bars. It is a wonderful place to visit.
We are lucky to live close to the border and be able to enjoy two cultures.
