Anyone knows if that's truth? Is it under new management?
And in that case, what has happened with the bar and Casa Rural that was in the same building. Are they...
Hello.
As part of the preparation of my Camino del Norte this year, that I'll begin NEXT THURSDAY¡¡¡¡, I've prepared an Excel file showing the distances between the main towns along the route and the stages proposed by the main guides I've found.
