    Hontanas Albergue - Fantastic Albergue

    I wanted to post about a new albergue that opened a year ago. It’s called Albergue Fuente Sidres and is 2.5 km before Hontanas. It’s not in the guidebooks (too new) but is on Camino Ninja under a village called Castellanos de Castro. It’s run by a lovely lady called Diana. It has a bar...
