Southwest Surfhouse is a truely magical place. From the moment you arrive you start to unwind and relax. My partner and I spent 6 nights here and wished we stayed forever. From car park salsa lessons to sunset surfs, daily ice cream stops to the most unbelievable home cooked meals you will ever eat- this place has it all sorted! These legends instantly make you feel at home and your mind starts to plot how exactly you can quit your job and never leave. We had one of the best weeks of our lives. Saying goodbye was the hardest, made easier knowing I’ll definitely be back! Until next time legends! Xxx

Raff and the SW team are the best crew of people ever. They make you feel at home, feed you the best meals and make sure every day is better than the last. I’d 100% recommend staying for the full seven days, any less will not be enough! We’re already planning our next visit back here. If you’re in Europe and love surfing, chilling and eating with absolute legends - this place is for you.

The southwest surf house is an amazing place to stay. Such relaxed vibes and amazing hosts. Really the perfect holiday. Raff and the team took us to some great surf spots, showed us around the town for all the best places to visit. Every evening we had amazing food cooked by the in house chef Georgia. It was a great place to meet amazing people, perfect for couples groups or even going alone. After the week I already feel part of the family, I will definitely come back again!

I would just like to thank all of you, Raff, Fraser, Salome and G for the amazing couple of weeks spent in Hossegor. Thank you for making the Surfhouse a home. G’s cooking is seriously special, an absolute credit to the Surfhouse. My surfing came on thanks to the enthusiasm of the team and before too long was surfing absolute gnar gnars. I am going to recommend the Surfhome to all my friends and look forward to seeing you soon.

They whole team were amazing the entire time from, swimming in the rain, making the most delicious food and drinks, sharing wise life advice, setting up cinema screenings, even bridge jumping. I could gush on about our stay with these guys for much longer.... but in summary they've created something really special, and I challenge anyone not to have an incredible time when staying here :)

"Fantastic! This is the best place I stayed at whilst visiting Europe. The hosts are deadest legends. Raff, Chris, and Laura looked after me like family. The food was world class. Often fresh from the garden! They know all the best surf spots too from the beginner banks to the big wave Hellman outer banks. Can't recommend highly enough!"

"Best Surf House in Europe!... I stayed for one week and was welcomed by all members of staff with open arms! I ate like a king with the delicious food cooked from their world class chef Lora. Was taken for some unforgettable nights out in town and the surf guiding was exceptional! Will definitely be returning!"
