Pilgrim Insight

Hotel Siglo XVIII suits pilgrims who want a quiet, countryside base away from the tourist bustle of Santillana. The pool in summer and the peaceful garden setting make it one of the most restorative stops on the Camino del Norte. Moreover, guests praise the friendly staff and the tranquil atmosphere — sleeping to the sound of cattle rather than cobblestone tourism is a welcome contrast.

Note: the hotel sits 500 metres from the historic centre — worth factoring in after a long day on the trail. Additionally, breakfast includes the famous sobaos pasiegos — the traditional Cantabrian pastry well worth trying on the Way of St. James.
