For anyone looking for a warm place in Fromista during the winter, I just saw this notice on a Spanish forum:

A pair of pilgrims living in Fromista has recently registered their home as an official albergue. For the past three years they have been offering overflow services in town, but now they are "official." Open from Dec. to February (I don't know about the rest of the year). You must call first. 5 beds, donativo

“BETANIA” acogida familiar cristiana.
Av. Ejército Español, 26 – FRÓMISTA (PALENCIA)
638 846 043.

Altus Poncho (ATMOSPHERIC H30)
Very light, comfortable and compressible poncho. Specially designed for protection against water for any activity.

Our Atmospheric H30 poncho offers lightness and waterproofness. Easily compressible and made with our Waterproof fabric, its heat-sealed interior seams guarantee its waterproofness. Includes carrying bag.

€60,-

Thanks for this info. I'm concerned about albergues being closed as i have read several posts about alberges that say they are open in winter but are not.

Altus 24 Liters daypack (DENON 24 H30)
Technical backpack for day trips with backpack cover and internal compartment for the hydration bladder. Ideal daypack for excursions where we need a medium capacity backpack. The back with Air Flow System creates large air channels that will keep our back as cool as possible.

€83,-
This little place is lovely, and Lourdes and José, the couple who run it, are true camino souls. I highly recommend it. (They have been around for a while, but now serve only in winter because the "ruling families" of Fromista want all the Big Business for themselves in the summertime.)

I know Lourdes and Jose from way back - at least since the year 2000 ;-) Lourdes was actually one of the co-founders of the hospitaleros voluntarios, also if she doesn't like to hear that (she doesn't like to be in any spot light ;-) ) They are a lovely couple and it is well worth staying with them or at least to say hello when you pass through Fromista this winter. As far as I know in summer they only accommodate those that nobody else wants, aka pilgrims without money for example. SY

Edited to add: It is important to call ahead to make sure that they are at home when you arrive!
