most straightforward way to travel from Biarritz Airport (arrival 12.30) back to Estella (I'm happy enough doing the bus -Biar-SanSeb-Pamplona-Estella outbound and can get there on the same day in the evening).

La Estellesa (www.laestellesa.com) has some direct buses from San Sebastián to Estella so if their schedule suits you, you wouldn't need to change buses in Pamplona. From Biarritz airport to San Sebastián (aka Donostia), you can take a bus either with Pesa (www.pesa.net) or with Alsa (www.alsa.es/en).

Advice more so on return leg flying Saturday 13.00 from Biarritz so looks like I'll have to travel back towards aiport on the Friday. Reckon I'll get as far as Belorado walking. Should I head on a local bus to Burgos or Logrono

There isn't too much difference between changing buses in Logroño or in Burgos on your way to San Sebastián. Travel time inside buses is (a bit) shortern changing buses in Logroño but overall travel time will depend on the time between buses in Logroño and in Burgos. From Belorado to either Logroño or Burgos, the bus Company is www.autobusesjimenez.com From Logroño to San Sebastián, bus company is La Estellesa and from Burgos to San Sebastián bus company is Alsa. Once in San Sebastián, you can take a bus to Biarritz airport (see above).
