Inland Spain

Nobody has mentioned The Picos de Europa..
40 square miles of the Swiss Alps tucked away in NW Spain..
Or Santillana del Mar..
Where the courtiers wives and mistresses would avoid the hot Madrid summer, while their menfolk stayed behind to plot, connive and philander.
The local lads had a hectic time, visiting the splendid villas and servicing the visitors.
The name means, " The holy flat place by the sea.. "
It's also known as, " The town of 3 lies". It's not level, it's certainly wasnt holy and it's 7 miles from the sea
There's a famous 45,000 year old cave with spectacular paintings, nearby. Only VIPs are allowed in.
They've made a life size model for us lesser mortals.. It's Air- conned.
Both places well worth a Google . And a visit.
Agggh, the memories.. !
Wonderful area, but been all round there there twice.
