Yes we did, this June. Looking forward to watching the documentary!I think Nick and Wendy walked this, recently...
I stole half an hour from my desk time this morning to watch half of it! I did not pay much attention to the nuts and bolts of your account, but now, hmm! It would depend a lot on the possibility of accessible accommodation. So far, a pure delight of a camino...the language difficulty makes no difference, at this juncture of just looking.Yes we did, this June. Looking forward to watching the documentary!
There is accessible accommodation. There's only one albergue, and planning a day or two ahead is definitely helpful, but we didn't have accommodation problems on this camino. This is where we stayed (which I have posted elsewhere but will paste here for convenience):It would depend a lot on the possibility of accessible accommodation.
You are so prompt, and detailed! I will have to forward this to my walking companion if there is to be a possibility in the not too distant future! She is the brains behind our caminos. I just go along and moan when my feet are sore!There is accessible accommodation. There's only one albergue, and planning a day or two ahead is definitely helpful, but we didn't have accommodation problems on this camino. This is where we stayed (which I have posted elsewhere but will paste here for convenience):
Caldelas: There’s an albergue in Caldelas with 16 beds. It’s €5/bed and we are the only ones here so we’ll take a ‘double room’ for €10!
Campo do Gerês: We are at the HI youth hostel although it’s a bit far from the village and at €39 for a room without bathroom even after a pilgrim discount, it’s not as cheap as it should be. Albergaria Stop is better located, has a restaurant and charges €45 for a double, so in hindsight that would have been the better option.
Os Baños: PR As Termas in Os Baños has comfortable double rooms for €40 right across from the springs.
Castro Laboreiro: Hotel Castrum Villae, a 3-star hotel for a very reasonable €42/double with a hair dryer for our soaking shoes!
Cortegada: Casa do Conde is a nice ‘Hotel Rústico’ that has good-value rooms at €35 with a pilgrim discount and a choice of two different stamps.
Ribadavia: Pension Evencio (Garden Lodge) has simple double rooms for €29 and a decent attached restaurant. It’s a 15-minute walk north of the historic centre, though, so maybe @Isca-camigo's suggestion of the Hotel Caracas (marked as a Restaurant on Google Maps) would have been a better choice.
Feás: A Forno do Curro is a Casa Rural just outside Feás that has a tiny room out the back with two beds for pilgrims for €25.
Soutelo de Montes: Pension San Roque has double rooms for €30 (singles for €18). The accommodation is down the street from the restaurant of the same name, which you’ll reach first and is where you need to check in.
Codeseda: The Casas Rurales Casa O Avó and Casa O Palomar are run by the same owner, Francisco. We have a very comfortable room/apartment for €40, which must include a large pilgrim discount. Highly recommended!
Rarís: Casa Taberna Mella in Rarís is run by a lovely Galego/Brazilian couple and we had a great meal and conversation here. The only issue is that it’s a bit pricey at €25/p for a room with shared bathroom.
Average: €17/p/n
