There is a site at Santillana near to Santander if she wants to pause before setting off, otherwise campsites at Logrono and Zaragoza are open all year. We are probably going to stay in a cabin at Logrono on the 13th as we are returning to the UK on the same boat for Christmas from Alcossebre, but leaving the 5er on site.

hi theresa. i am not the best sailor at anytime. i never have a cabin ,never use the reclining seats .i find it better to find some seats close to cafe /toilets and sit quiet .if neccasary sleep on the floor. dont like moving about or being in a cabin feels like a prison.
but the next day you are there hooray. sometimes sleep in restaurant settees . best if there are no kennals for dog ,then walk dog last thing then go to bed in van. when they open up for others to walk theirs get out and nobody realises.
see you on sunday i,ll be with a camper a white one.ha ha
cheers alan.
