I am really struggling to find somewhere to stay. I now know I should have looked earlier.

Sarria is ok. I can find nothing around Portomarin. Thank you for the Gronze tip. Nothing showing there either.

There are 86 beds in the municipal albergue in Portomarin. No reservations accepted. Hopefully you will arrive early enough for a bed there if you don't find anything else.

Padraic, just don't worry. It is not the desert. We didn't find a bed in Portomarin in 2006 (it was a Sunday) so we just had lunch and set off again, finishing 13km further on. I know it can be a different story now, but once you set off and meet other people and find out what is actually going on, you will be just fine. I bet you! Buen Camino.

Thank you Kirkie, that is reassuring

Please be on the lookout for two gypsy girls on the trail that are allegedly deaf and mute. They can hear and speak very well.
