During the 9th century this was the largest church in Spain and although now dwarfed by later and greater buildings, it remains of great significance in the history of Spanish religious architecture. The church is well worth a visit, especially for its magnificent array of gorgeously coloured murals.

To the west of Aviles stretches the Costa Verde, a long stretch of rugged cliffs, sandy bays and deep river estuaries. Cudillero, the closest village to the airport, has a good selection of places to eat and drink, all crammed together around a small fishing harbour. Further west, Luarca is another tranquil and attractive fishing port.

The Napa Valley Wine Train invites you to step back in time as you board its restored Pullman cars, where polished wood and large windows frame sweeping vineyard views. From the moment the train’s whistle sounds, you’re transported through the heart of Napa Valley, winding past historic wineries, sunlit vineyards, and the rustic beauty of California wine country. Onboard, chefs prepare multi-course meals paired with carefully selected wines from the region. With options from sunset dinners to tasting tours with winery stops, the Wine Train offers a memorable way to experience Napa’s flavors and landscapes.
