Cantabria is a beautiful place to stay with its lovely beaches, soaring
mountains, elegant resorts and peaceful fishing villages combine to make this an
interesting and relaxing holiday. Our customers who came with us last year recommend it
and say the added mini cruise was really lovely and a bonus to the holiday.
The crossing is from Portsmouth to Bilbao with 2 nights on the outward
journey and one night on the return, four nights half board at the hotel Milagros. If you
have never been to this area of Spain then a cruise across the Atlantic Ocean and a stay
at a four star hotel is a great introduction.
The Hotel
The Hotel Milagros Golf at Mogro is a 4 star hotel and is on the side of the beach and
surrounded by sea and mountains. The hotel is completely air conditioned with TV,
telephone and safety deposit box.
