Cantabria in Winter?

[Txacoli]

We are in Spain as usual this January, and my wife is dragging be West of Extebarri and Andra Mari for a change.

Does anyone have any suggestions for the Cantabrian coast towards Santander and Santiago....coast and mountains?

Many thanks!

And another recco from vserna in this very site:

Cofiño (formerly 'Bar Cofiño', before they spruced up the place a little bit), in the main square of the tiny mountain village of Caviedes in Cantabria (just a couple of miles from the Roiz exit of the A-8 motorway between Santander and Oviedo). The main objective here is a tureen-full of cocido montañés, the white kidney bean-based soup/stew that in Cantabria plays a similar role to that which fabada (and the less well-known pote asturiano) play in Asturias

Thanks.....any special recommendations among the group?

El Serval, La Mulata, Cofiño, El Nuevo Molino are among my favourites, but all of them are worth the visit in very different price ranges and styles.
