    Portuguese Coastal/Lit - Private Rooms, Bedding, Looking for Advice & Recommendations!

    Casa Antas is brilliant and worth a short detour from the coastal path. We call this our Glamino because we stay in Airbnbs and small hotels as far as possible. 🤗

    Question on arriving and when to start from Ferrol

    Definitely number 3! Enjoy the sights of SdC and Ferrol before you begin to walk.

    Guide book

    I'm working from Brierley but won't know until May! If it's a good as the Frances guide, it'll be perfect!

    Anyone walked the Frances in May?

    I walked the Frances in May over 3 years. Pretty much perfect weather and not crowded at all (apart from stage from Sarria). Buen Camino.

    Old guide or new?

    Old guide or new?

    Go to the naval buildings at the harbour, you'll find steps where pilgrims may have landed centuries ago. The way is well signposted as long as you keep your eyes open!

    Old guide or new?

    I was referring to the Ingles from Ferrol. Quite honestly, you're better following the way marks...

    Has anyone used Brierly's Guide for Ingles?

    There are still changes happening (I returned last week) so go by the waymarkers, NOT the JW guide! Too many cooks and all that...

    Old guide or new?

    But the new guide is totally inaccurate and a complete waste of money! I completed the Ingles last week - very disappointed with the guide and, to be honest, some later parts of the walk. I walked the old route two years ago and it was much more enjoyable.

    Camino Signage - Which Way to Point

    Interestingly, and as far as I can remember (I'll check this September) the shell signs on the Camino Ingles all point towards SdC. It very well signposted.

    Live from the Camino

    Staying at Albergue Gaucelmo in Rabanal. What a fabulous find! Our two British hospitaleros are wonderful, and the company we're keeping is great fun. Looking forward to Vespers and Compline tonight. Well done, CSJ!
