Head off to Spain’s Basque Country for the best meal in the world

The best meal in the world is served in the glorious San Sebastian, according to the Lonely Planet’s Ultimate Eatlist. As summer comes to a close, why not journey out to the Spanish hideaway and sink your teeth in to the pintxos, or tapas as we know it, in this beautiful destination.

Bona fide foodies will want to stay at Akelarre. Pedro Subijana’s three-Michelin starred restaurant has a five-star boutique property attached to it so after dining out in style by the Bay of Biscay, it is just a few steps back to bed for a post-prandial nap.

The destination offers a plethora of accommodation choices from cutesy traditional pensions to elegant townhouses.

Check out the 19th century Hotel Villa Soro with its stylish rooms and handy location – just minutes away from the globally revered Arzak restaurant.

For a more contemporary vibe, the Talo Urban Rooms offer a designer stay in a vibrant area while the glamorous NH Collection San Sebastian Aranzazu offers upclose action for pintxos lovers with multiple dining options nearby.

From salt cod to stuffed peppers, cheesecake to the world’s best tortilla, this is a place to eat, drink and soak up one last hit of sunshine before the winter days draw in.
