Viveda has two centers separated by urban sprawl. The Iglesia de El Salvador and the Palacio de Peredo are the buildings of historical note. The church began construction as early as 878 — making it nearly a century older than the famous Colegiata in nearby Santillana del Mar. A fact the locals mention with some frequency.
The camino follows the CA-340 from here toward Santillana.
Viveda was founded by King Alfonso I of Asturias to be a stop along the old Roman road and the Camino de Santiago. The Iglesia de El Salvador began construction as early as 878, making it almost a full century older than the one in Santillana del Mar.
Once over the bridge into Viveda keep to the right at the first roundabout, heading uphill. A short distance later it turns left onto the CA-340 in the direction of Camplengo. This new route is well marked and almost entirely along the road, leading you directly to the Plaza de las Arenas and the Colegiata in Santillana del Mar.

Posada Las Tres Mentiras accommodation on the out skirts of Viveda was really nice they don’t provide food in the evening I walked for about 10 min back down to a place called bar el quinto opens for food at 8. It’s a burger place and as you may have found out by now they don’t cook the burger completely if that is what you want so just ask them. The breakfast in the posada was lovely. It’s normally at 9 but he came in at 8 so make sure you ask when booking
