Jeeez! For a split second, my heartattack had a heartattack! Spanish wine, I thought...Hi Alex and I met on the camino last year and one year later we are married!
Agree, two wonderful albergues.I walked the Camino France a few weeks back. Two of the (nice) albergues which I stayed in had a “For Sale” sign up.
1) https://www.gronze.com/castilla-y-leon/leon/pieros/albergue-serbal-y-luna
2) https://www.gronze.com/galicia/lugo/san-mamede-do-camino/albergue-paloma-y-lena
When I walked the Francés last year Christine’s albergue in Villares de Orbigo (close to Astorga) was for sale:

Best of luck with your wonderful dream! Mx
No longer. I'll leave the proper response for she who bought it, because she'll probably have words of wisdom to share.When I walked the Francés last year Christine’s albergue in Villares de Orbigo (close to Astorga) was for sale:

Nice to hear that you will be back on the Camino Francés with a group Annie but...you should really rethink your itinerary to include a stay in Albergue Villares de Órbigo (16 km before Astorga) http://alberguevillaresdeorbigo.es/.
You see I will be officially taking over the albergue on May 1, 2020 from the current Belgian owner Christine. It would be lovely to meet you and Joe and welcome you and your group during the Holy Year.
The one just before Sarria was up for sale in June. No idea if it still is. Its a great placeHi Alex and I met on the camino last year and one year later we are married! Now we are looking for our new home and business on the camino frances or norte... anywhere near the yellow arrows.... Please let us know if you see anything .... Im sure we would make a great albergues, guest home.... thankyou thankyou

This one is also for sale: https://www.gronze.com/castilla-y-leon/burgos/castrojeriz/albergue-orion. At least it was a few weeks ago, and had been for several months, so I'm guessing it still is for sale; price is not low, though.I walked the Camino France a few weeks back.

And I believe these two are also for sale in Agés and Atapuerca, just before Burgos (also quite pricey):

Atapuerca: https://www.gronze.com/castilla-y-leon/burgos/atapuerca/hotel-rural-papasol
You've been very well adviced already to get some experience prior to investing and doing such a great change of life; maybe it's better to first rent out an existing albergue for a few years, test if you really like that kind of life and work, and then go for your own purchase.
Good luck anyhow!

Congratulations to both of you - what a lovely story! Wishing you well for the future and in your search for an albergue.Hi Alex and I met on the camino last year and one year later we are married!

Wow! That's very exciting news, @LTfit. A big move for you, but also a very natural transition. I'll be staying with Christine in October and hopefully with you in the future. Good luck!No longer. I will be moving there March 1, 2020 and officially taking it over on May 1, 2020.
I concur with Annie and Kiwi-family about contacting Reb of the Peaceable Kingdom. Boy do I remember my first talk with her back in 2013! She came to visit me when I was a hospitalera in El Burgo Ranero and gave me good solid advice, without any sugarcoating. Please first volunteer before jumping in, that experience is invaluable!
It took me 8 years of contemplating, walking Caminos criss-crossing all over Spain to finally find the place. Sometimes just when you are no longer looking something falls in your lap.
Good luck to you all. And come visit it me in 2020 in Villares de Orbigo
p.s. I talked to the owners of the albergue in Pieros and visited it last fall when it was not yet officially on the market. The albergue is not that large which is fine but the price is very steep as it jalso includes their living space which is 80 m2 and an additional space not being used at the moment.

In May 2011, I stayed at Albergue Serbal y Luna, which had just recently opened. Their two young kids must be in their late teens by now. Wonderful hosts and family.I walked the Camino France a few weeks back. Two of the (nice) albergues which I stayed in had a “For Sale” sign up.
