Accommodation between Barcelos and Ponte de Lima

[erikpilegrim]

According to John Brierley the stage from Barcelos to Ponte de Lima is "the longest and most arduous of all the stages" on Camino Portugues, and the information says there is only two (expensive) intermediate accomodations on this stretch, Casa dos Assentos in Quintiaes and Quinta da Albergaria in Facha.
Do any of you know of other places to stay?

Hello eric

Didnt come across any accomodation last year between these two towns, its 34 kms and it took me 7 hours.
Its a beautiful stretch, fairly flat, stayed at the luxurious YHA in Ponte de Lima.

Thank you Wilmer! Do you mean the Youth Hostel Pousada da Juventude? Is membership required?
