How to get to Altamira Caves from Santander?

Question

Can someone tell me how I can get to the Altamira caves (or the museum that is open to view) from Santander. Which bus/train, how much it costs, and also if there was an entry fee into the museum how much does that cost, what times/days are they open, and any other info that might be handy to know! Thanks!
