hi, if she heads towards torrelavega.there is a big shell garage with lots of parking .its used by truck drivers and campers .its about half way to torrelavaga . its safe .use it alot. possibly there could be some open along the coast but i doubt it . loads of free parking once you get out of santander . sometimes park on industrial estates heading towardsthe airport,thats the other way. cheers alan.

Hi

There is a site at Burgos, open all year, but it's about 130 mls . maybe too far .. but ideal if she is heading south.
