Brittany Ferries Parador breaks in Spain: cruise and historic hotels from £298 pp
FerryGoGo 
Checked: 19 October 2026 · stays until 28 December 2026
Paradores are Spain’s state-run historic hotels, often in spectacular buildings. This break pairs them with the overnight ferry from Portsmouth or Plymouth to Santander or Bilbao, so the journey itself is part of the holiday.
In a nutshell
- Price: from £298 per person (two adults sharing, return sailings with a car and a cabin)
- Hotel: 2, 3 or 4 nights B&B at a choice of Paradores in northern and central Spain
- Ferry: Portsmouth or Plymouth to Spain, 2 or 3 nights on board with an inside cabin each way
- Dates: stays until 28 December 2026; autumn and early winter are cheapest
- Booking: by phone with Brittany Ferries’ travel team
Our tip
The cheapest prices are for October to December and a two-night stay. Choose a Parador close to the port, such as Santillana del Mar or Limpias near Santander, and you spend more time at the hotel and less behind the wheel.
Our verdict
A different kind of short break: two nights at sea and a stay in a castle or monastery. For a France break instead, see the 3 nights for 2 in France from £195.
