Parador de Santillana, Cantabria, Spain
Country house draped with creepers

Villafranca del Bierzo is the illustrious centre of a very lovely region and also a stop on St James' Way. The Hotel’s architecture imitates the lines and shapes of nearby Galicia.

The landscape of the Sierra de Ancares to the North complements the beauty of the Parador’s garden. Its interior is decorated with Castilian style furniture and wrought iron lamps.

The wooden floors lend elegance and comfort to the bedrooms and other rooms of the hotel. The lounge, one of the most attractive spaces in the Parador, is welcoming and comfortable.
