History and atmosphere
About Arratzain cider house
Arratzain cider house was set up in 1999, although the family had always made cider for themselves and those close to them.
It lies among the hills of Usurbil, in outstanding natural surroundings. As well as the cider house and restaurant, they have recently opened an agritourism guesthouse, so visitors get a very complete service. Its production is essentially for consumption in the cider house restaurant itself, as they make around 30,000 litres of cider a year. Much of it is made with apples from their own harvest.
It is 10 minutes from San Sebastián, with views over the bay.
Specialities
Grilled T-bone steak (txuleta).
