Thank you Chrissy,
I am sure I am in good company in sharing my disappointment with many others who have regrettably come to the same decision.
Always helps to keep a sense of perspective though and I am sure I will make it and already making plans for 2022.....as next year may be too busy if...
Unfortunately I have decided that rather than prolong the uncertainty,I have cancelled my accommodation options and put any thoughts of completing any sort of Camino this year firmly out of my mind for the foreseeable future.
It is of course purely a personal decision based on the information...
Thank you for the confirmation,I will investigate what other accommodation options are available and may have to make some revisions to my previously planned stages

From what I...
Thank you Elaine,

The Camino is a present to myself for my 60th birthday next year and I don’t think I have looked forward to a birthday so much for as long as I can remember
Good luck with...
Fleur,
Thank you again.
My brother who is far more sensible than me,is joining me to walk the Camino del Baztan and he likes to have a definite plan of action.He will leave me in Pamplona and return back to the U.K.
I fancy myself as a bit more of a free spirit so I can then please myself and...
Thank you for your very informative and enthusiastic posts...on the basis of your comments I have decided to start my Camino Frances next September by walking the Baztan and joining in Pamplona
Really useful tips on accommodation and started to make some enquiries so it really feels like it is...
