We are arriving on the Plymouth/Santander ferry on 2nd September and are looking for a B & b/Hotel (reasonably priced) somewhere about 5 hours drive from Santander. Perhaps just south of Madrid. Has anyone got any recommended places that they have stayed at on the journey down?

Thanks.

Andrew.

Thanks for this. How far is that from Santander in time? I was thinking about 5 hours from Santander so perhaps a little further south.

Hi

3.5 hrs  south of Santander at Junc 99 on motorway is a really nice pet freindly hotel. Small village to raer has a couple of bars. Good stopover around 60E, will try to find name.Leaves us a 6hr drive following day to Huercal Overa.

Beers on you if you enjoy. Did you buy in Turre or elsewhere, We are in Fuente Amarga a small traditional village near Los Lucas Resturant.

Hotel booked, thanks to you both.

Jim. For the first 6 months we have taken a rental further north near to Alicante, then the plan is to move down towards Turre for the next 6 months, we will keep looking around for a couple of years before we buy but more than likely around the turre/Jurgena/Cuevas de  Almonzora area.

Regards.

Andrew.
