Linto
Ref: ZS0401, Map W2, Santander 35k NW
The river Miera's limestone valley lies a short drive south of Santander and is a stunning world of oak and beech woods,
green pastures and old villages. Linto is one of the valley's tiny communities and life here is relaxed and slow. Hidden
amongst the beautiful countryside are several caves, including nearby Sopeña in Miera, marked walking paths and some
excellent fishing (permit required). The coast and beaches are not far and San Roque and Lièrganes are both within easy
driving distance for bars, shops and restaurants. Originally a cow byre, Casa Aurelio Carcoba is semi detached to the
owner's mother's house and has been reconstructed into an attractive holiday home. Built into a hillside it has ground
floor access at both lower and upper levels, and there are fantastic views of the mountains from the back of the house.
Well equipped kitchen / diner has f / freezer, m / wave, d / washer & w / machine. Wc. Stairs to 1st floor which comprises
lounge with tv, fireplace with insert, balcony on one side and terrace on the other. Hydromassage shower / wc. 1 dble &
2 twin bedrms, 1 with lovely mountain views. Air vent heating. Large terrace with garden furniture & bbq.

Valcaba de Soba
Ref: ZS0039, Map X2, Laredo 45k NE
A restored water mill off a country lane has been converted into this lovely holiday casa and the welcoming owner's
home (to the left). Reached by winding mountain roads, it is a truly unbeatable location in a wonderfully unspoilt and, in
the main, undiscovered area. As one previous visitor so poetically put it - 'it's a little bit of heaven on earth!' The source
of the river Ason is in these parts and its 50m waterfall is an amazing sight that shouldn't be missed!
Kitchen / diner with woodburner, f / freezer, m / wave & range (no modern oven). 1st floor has twin bedrm, utility room
(w / machine) & bath / shower / wc. 6 stone steps up to 2nd floor split level living room with original stone walls & beams,
fireplace & tv. Dble & twin bedrms. Air vent heating. Open, uneven grounds with unprotected drops in places, garden
furniture, unfenced pond & bbq.
Gajano
Ref: ZS0311, Map W2, Santander 17k NW
Gajano is a small village across the bay from Santander on the coastal road between Astillero and Santoña. It is a good
area for a great choice of lovely beaches and there is plenty to see and do in this part of Cantabria. Casa Joaquin 1 is
one of two single storey, semi detached holiday properties (also see ZS0312 Max 4), either side of the friendly owner's
home in a pleasant part of the village, and is just a short drive from the port.
Living room with fitted kitchen area (f / freezer, m / wave, d / washer & w / machine), fireplace & tv. 3 bedrms - 1 dble &
1 twin, both with en suite shower room / wc, plus 2nd twin bedrm and separate shower / wc. C / heating. Large grassy
garden with covered terrace, furniture & bbq.
In a fantastic location alongside a river (unprotected) in a hamlet of just 5 houses, an old barn has been renovated
into this lovely comfortable casa. Surrounded by hills and wooded grounds, its thick stone walls and exposed wooden
beams give it character and it's been traditionally furnished in a most attractive style. A picnic table down by the
water provides the ideal place to bbq whilst there is an enclosed grassy garden behind the house. Nearby Vega de
Pas (4k) is one of 3 Pasiego villages and is known for its local sweet delicacies Sobaos (sponge cake) and Quesadas
(cheesecake) - delicious! - and its Ethnographical museum, which is dedicated to the Pasiego way of life, is a must for
anyone interested in this unusual culture.
Open plan ground floor has kitchen area (f / freezer, hob & m / wave / grill, mini oven only - no oven), fireplace with insert,
tv & stairs to upper floor. Bath / shower / wc with w / machine. 3 first floor bedrms - 1 dble with river views & 2 twins.
Balcony with stairs to back garden. Electric heaters. Garden furniture, picnic table, see-saw, swings & bbq. 4 bicycles
