Accommodation on the meseta close to Burgos in February

Time of past OR future Camino
April 4th from SJPDP - May 5, 2017 - Complete!
I live in Spain, and I have a bit of time off starting next week. My plan was to head up to Burgos and walk some of the meseta. I briefly went to booking.com, and it looks like there is literally no accommodation for the first few days available. It could be there is accommodation, and they just aren't taking online bookings. But I was just curious if anyone knew for sure what it's like right now near Hontanas and Hornillos del Camino.

I love that trek from Burgos to Sahagun but normally wait until a little later in the spring. I can not imagine that some of the tried and true places aren't open in Hornillos, Hontanas, Castrojeriz, etc., etc.
 
Get a spanish phone number with Airalo. eSim, so no physical SIM card. Easy to use app to add more funds if needed.

I passed through Hornillos and Hontanas about 3 weeks ago. Nothing was open in either village on the day I passed through. No accommodation or bars. After waiting for over a hour for the Hontanas hospitalero to answer my repeated phone calls I carried on to Castrojeriz where there were some options available.
 
Bradypus, that is amazing information to hear.

I recently walked the camino. Hornillos municipal was open. Here is a shot of my walk through the Meseta and towns I stopped in. Hope it helps

The 2024 Camino guides will be coming out little by little. Here is a collection of the ones that are out so far.
Tony: that is some walking - 44km in one day. I am over 60 now and that looks like long day
 
The first edition came out in 2003 and has become the go-to-guide for many pilgrims over the years. It is shipping with a Pilgrim Passport (Credential) from the cathedral in Santiago de Compostela.
Walk into Leon sucks! What about San Bol on the Meseta?
 
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.
