A wonderful vacation!
We are a group of 8 and really enjoyed our holiday at this place in Somo!
The house is situated fantastically in a closed group of similar houses in old Cantabria style, with a very nice pool right in the middle.
It has a spatious garage, cosy kitchen, living room & small garden, 3 bedrooms at the second floor and a very large one at the attick and 2 bathrooms.
The house has everything you need and more and Raquel & Marcello gave us a warm welcome and have been very helpfull in getting to know the house.
The village and beaches of Somo are at close walking distance. Our favorite activity was of course surfing, for which Somo's beaches are superb!
Taking the ferry to Santander was our most popular way to get right in the city center, which has a nice boulevard and lots of shops and restaurants.
Bilbao is at one hour driving distance and easily filling an entire day program with the Old Town, Cathedral, walks along the river and of course the Guggenheim museum.
Cabárceno Nature Parc at less than an hour is a safari nature reserve in an impressively sized area. Also, the cascades of Lamiña are a great walk and very refreshing experience. Along the coast the town of Comillas is absolutely worth a visit and don't forget to see Gaudi's creation El Caprico over there. At a bit more than two hours drive you can take the cable car Fuente Dé to hike the Picos de Europe and enjoy phantastic views in a stunning environment.
All together this is a provence and house we'd love to return to...
