Firstly - a quick mention - your subject heading mentions “Coastal” CP but the only coastal town is La Bruge. The rest are all the Interior CP.
Perhaps you could do a test of the accom availability on Booking dot com - especially if you’re wanting 5 beds in mid May. I’d guess that most private...

That's good news about walking alone. Are you posting on FB or a blog at all - would like to follow. I am not sure whether I can do the whole Vdlp solo (female 66yrs old) but might tackle some sections. Gathering info.Buen Camino
