La Montagne Mágica

The ferry docked in Santander this afternoon. We had a really good journey although we weren’t lucky enough to spot any dolphins even those others did this morning.
We drove about an hour and a half west along the dual carriageway from Santander into the Asturias .
As predicted, it started to rain heavily but the different landscapes were interesting.
Once we turned off the main roads, the final few miles to the Farm Hotel were ‘exciting’ !!
The track wound round and round climbing up the foothills of the Picos de Europa until we arrived!
It was well worth it though - a remarkable place which we are looking forward to exploring . A farm and renovated buildings in the local style . Even an horreos- a wooden granary store . P’s schoolboy German was useful in communicating with the Argentinian young woman on reception.
We heard a cuckoo and later a night jar churning ! Lovey to hear cowbells too !!
