Pilgrim Insight

Posada El Pescador suits pilgrims who want a genuinely rural stop in Cantabrian countryside on the Way of St. James. Hosts Bárbara and Goyo welcome guests with real warmth, and the hydromassage bath after a long stage is a genuine luxury. Furthermore, the mountain-view terraces and traditional stone-and-wood interior give it a character that larger hotels cannot match.

The nearest restaurants and shops are 5 minutes away in Santillana del Mar — pilgrims without a car should plan ahead. Additionally, check-in is from 13:30 and check-out by 12:00.
