The Posada Camino de Altamira Santillana del Mar is on Avenida Marcelino Sanz de Sautuola, on the way to the Altamira Museum. It has its own restaurant serving traditional food, a bar and free parking, so meals and the car are both taken care of in one place.
Location and getting around
The Altamira Museum is about a 15-minute walk away, the same distance as the Plaza Mayor and Santillana Zoo. It sits halfway between the museum and the historic centre.
If you arrive by train, Torrelavega station is about 6.2 km away; from there, a taxi is the sensible option. For the coast at Suances, the property itself says it is less than 18 minutes by car.
