Casa El Campano, Ontaneda Overview
Casa El Campano is located in Ontaneda, Spain. Rated 9.2 out of 10 based on 2 guest reviews.
Casa El Campano is a self-catering holiday home in Ontaneda, Spain, set in Barrio el Ángel s/n, Casa el Campano. With a check-in window from 3:00 PM to midnight and check-out at 12:00 PM, it works well for travellers who arrive by car and want a flexible schedule. The layout is designed for comfort and practicality: a fully equipped kitchenette helps you manage simple breakfasts and meals, while a seating area and flat-screen TV with DVD player make evenings easy. Families and groups also benefit from the home’s multiple bathrooms, including baths with bidets, which reduces morning bottlenecks.
Guests rate Casa El Campano highly at 9.2/10 based on two reviews, with the small number of opinions suggesting a quieter, more personal stay rather than a high-turnover property. The terrace is a standout for downtime, giving you a place to slow down after exploring the Cantabrian coast and nearby towns. For road-trip friendly travellers, free parking is a clear advantage, and the option of an offsite parking arrangement with discounted rates can make day trips simpler.
If you’re planning day excursions, Santander’s waterfront and Playa de la Concha are roughly 22 km away, while Santillana del Mar is about 34 km for historic streets and viewpoints. Cabárceno Natural Park sits around 45 km from Ontaneda for a full day outdoors, and the Altamira area is about 40 km for one of the region’s most famous cultural stops. Casa El Campano is best for families and small groups who want space, self-sufficiency, and a calm base for exploring Cantabria.
