Pedreña is a village in the municipality of Marina de Cudeyo, Cantabria, northern Spain. As of 2010, its population was 1,454.

Although located from Santander by road, it lies on a peninsula only about across the bay from Santander, separated from land to the east by the mouth of the Miera River.

The most famous son of Pedreña is golfer Seve Ballesteros (1957–2011); the main avenue in the village is named after him. This medieval church is dated to the 14th or 15th century. During the Spanish Civil War the church was destroyed and left as a ruin. The golf course, Real Golf de Pedreña, lies on the coast to the east of the village and opened in 1928 with fine views of the bay of Santander.

In 1983, during development works, several slab tombs revealed a collection of some 72 silver medieval coins, which have been dated between the late eleventh and early twelfth centuries.

Notable people

Golfer Seve Ballesteros (1957–2011) was born and died in Pedreña. He learned the game while playing on the beaches near his home, at the time while he was supposed to be in school, mainly using an 3-iron given to him by his older brother Manuel when he was eight years old. Also born or living in this village were golfers Ramón Sota Ocejo (1938) and José Manuel Carriles Corino (1963), the hockey player Pilar González Noval (1959) and the basketball player David Doblas (1981). The main avenue is named after Ballesteros.
