This Parador is installed in the beautiful Barreda-Bracho ancestral home located in the square of Santillana del Mar, a town declared a National Monument whose origins go back to the 8th century.
Friendly rooms possess wooden floors as well as traditional decoration consisting of forged metal lamps and paintings with motifs from the Altamira caves. The bedrooms, some with chimneys, are comfortable and offer beautiful pastoral and rural views. In the dining room sample highland and Liebana stews. We strongly recommend you the "cocido montanes": a dish of boiled white beans, vegetables, bacon and sausages as well as prime beef sirloin "a la plancha", salmon stuffed with smoked meat, hake from the Bay of Biscay on green asparagus, the famous "sorropotun" (fish and vegetable stew), and the typical dessert "quesada pasiega". Santillana del Mar is one of the most beautiful and well-preserved villages in Spain. The town has a zoo and nearby are the Altamira Caves which contain one of the most celebrated examples of prehistoric paintings in the world. For some they are nicknamed the "Sixtine Chapel" of Prehistory. Enjoy the feasts of Santillana. On January 5th there is the Three Wise Men Parade. June 28th partake in the feast of Santa Juliana, and August 16th, the Feasts of San Roque.
Explore the Cabarceno Natural Park and the route of the Cares river. Experience the impressive views of the "Picos de Europa" (Peaks of Europe) mountains.
The Parador is approximately 122 kms from Bilbao and the famous Guggenheim museum, designed by the american architect Frank O. Gehry. The accommodation in this hotel of the Paradors group is in fifteen twin bedded rooms, eight double bedded rooms, two singles and three suites. In the rooms you will find a telephone, television, TV canal plus and a mini bar. Also for the comfort of your stay there is heating, air conditioning, and a restaurant and bar.
