I know, I know, there are many reasons NOT to buy or rent an albergue, we have read and know them all.
But after 4 years of talking about, my wife and me both still want to run an albergue... :) In the end it will all depend on availability and calculations, but it is time for us now to take a step in this. In a few weeks we go and visit Albergues which are for sale or for rent.
I did read the 'Albergues for sale' part in this forum, with a few people we do have contact already. But there must be much more. Does anyone know about any albergue for sale or rent at this moment, or know about owners who are thinking about this? There is always a lot of knowledge among the people on this forum...
We don't have a fixed place or route yet, it can be anywhere. Please send a PM if needed.

Thanks!
 
The one from Galicia (the round) and the one from Castilla & Leon. Individually numbered and made by the same people that make the ones you see on your walk.

This is an old thread... But if anyone is looking for a really legal / practical place, try this ?!

Ideal sleeping bag liner whether we want to add a thermal plus to our bag, or if we want to use it alone to sleep in shelters or hostels. Thanks to its mummy shape, it adapts perfectly to our body.

€46,-

I’ve been looking at and discussing with Tim this place since early spring and will go to see while walking the VDLP this March. I felt it necessary to walk the VDLP first to understand what arriving pilgrims might be feeling. It’s a big decision but well the Camino calls and it’s time for a life change.

Great decision! The Plata is very different from the Frances, Norte or Ingles which you have already walked. It is also important to get a feel for the place and hamlet. I have also had contact with Tim and Bea, one of the three women that we running the place last year. If you would like me to be a sounding board feel free to contact me via a pm. I have walked this section of the Plata three times and have slept in the municipal on each occasion walking from Zamora.

Thank you so much, that’s great.
