Usually Gronze has most up to date info: https://www.gronze.com/castilla-y-leon/zamora/santa-marta-tera/albergue-peregrinos-santa-marta-teraSeems some confusion from various sources when the Municipal Hostal opens. I am planning to arrive at end of Feb. Some guides say open all year, some say Easter onwards and some say March onwards. Anybody have the right answer??
Thank you in anticipation.

Great to hear they got rid of those piles of blankets because couple of years ago that's where the bedbugs were crawling from during the night...We stayed there a couple of weeks ago and I thought that it was open all year. When we arrived the front gate and entry to the alburgue were open but no hospitalario came to take any money or stamp the credentials. There is a donation box on the table just inside the entry corridor and the notice on the board that is on your RHS said to go to the church between 4 and 6 pm to get your sello. I believe the alburgue is run by a Camino society affiliated to the Church and is very nice with great kitchen and bathroom facilities, good heating, but no blankets. There is a very small tienda close by that opens at 5 pm, but we chose to walk back across the river 1.5 kms to a good carnicería and larger tienda for our dinner supplies. For very detailed and accurate alburgue info go to Gronze and utilise their VdlP section with the various stages. Definitely an alburgue to plan a stop at, hope this helps you
I think municipal albergues in Galicia have gotten rid of blankets as a matter of policy now.
Hi mate, I've walked the VDLP 3 times in the last four yrs. the first occasion it was open at the very end of February. The other two occasions, it was closed.... at the end of January. The stage from tabara is relatively long at about 34k. It is mainly flat with a few stiff, but short inclines! You could walk about 12k to the first village and beautiful albergue with a pellet stove in a full size living room and a big tv. Spotlessly clean, well stocked kitchen. Key from the local restaurant £15. No guide book... can be 100 percent accurate . Incidentally, the albergue after tabara at 34k... is braw, but no heating or kitchen. It is adjacent to a shop which opens for pilgrims, as the lady lives next door. I'll be off again on the 15/12. Can't wait.

Can highly back up this recommendation. We ate there recently and it was our best pilgrim meal (best meal ever) on any of our Caminos. It was 10€ and he was preparing each course in front of us. It was a degustation style menu and amazing. Do yourself a favour and plan to eat there when staying at Rio Negro, you won’t regret itWhatever you do, don't forget to eat at Me Gusta Comer in Rionegro - hands down the best meal of my Camino!

You probably speak for all of us who have experienced Teo's hospitality.Couldn't agree more, that place is NOT to be misssed! Sometimes I am dreaming just traveling down there, only for the food! BC SY
