perfect
Playa de la Concha
are a stunning combination best viewed from atop
Monte Igueldo
. But San Sebastián is a world culinary capital, known for its mind-
blowing tapas, and Michelin-starred restaurants, such as
Arzak
.

All along the coast of Cantabria and Asturias, isolated coves conceal picturesque
fishing villages, but if you can linger in just one place, pass the night in
Santillana
del Mar
, a timeless village set back from the coast with an idyllic setting and medi-
eval architecture.

Five hours
Along the E70 or
six hours
on the A6 via León.
Santiago de Compostela (

)
Santiago de Compostela, with its echoes of the sacred, is a suitably epic last stop
on your journey through northern Spain. Its
cathedral
is the city's soaring
centrepiece, but the city radiating out from here is a microcosm of urban Spain.
