Where to stay in Camargo
Camargo is a compact municipality just south of Santander, so staying in the town centre puts you close to the local markets and easy transport links. Try Muriedas, the main urban hub, or Maliaño if you prefer somewhere a little quieter.
If you'd rather base yourself in Santander and make the short trip into Camargo, you'll find a much wider choice of accommodation there, with regular bus connections that make the journey straightforward.

Planning your visit
All six markets in Camargo are held outdoors, so checking local weather before you go is worthwhile, particularly outside the summer months. Most stalls open in the morning and begin packing down by early afternoon, so arriving before midday gives you the best selection across all product categories.
