So does anyone know if there is private accommodation anywhere in between Betanzos and Hospital de Bruma? We would be walking with our 1 year old so staying at the Preseo Alburgue is not really a good choice (although we stayed there in 2016 when we walked the Ingles without a baby and loved it!). We definitely need to break up that stage so hoping we find something. I just bought the newest Johnny Walker guide (and it will have to ship to the States) but the older one does not show anything.
Thank you for your response! I am concerned that since we will not have a car seat, that a cab will not want to shuttle us. Of course, it is always best practice to use a car seat anyhow. Not sure if that will be an option for us.
The people at Hotel Garelos in Betanzos are really friendly. You could mail them and explain them your situation?
You may also want to check VRBO and/or Airbnb. We found an apartment in Sto. Domingo de la Calzada when everything else was booked. I walked the Inglés last June, unfortunately not much on that stretch. Good luck.

Try Costa de Egoa, a lovely casa rural. It is off the camino a bit but they may be able to pick you up. They have a child so they may have a car seat, too.
in 2018 we stayed 2 nights with Antonio at Meson Nova mesonnovo@mesonnovo.com
The deal was that if we stayed 2 nights, Antonio would collect us from the Camino at the end of the first day from Betanzos and drop us back the following morning. On that day we walked to the Hotel for our second nights stay. Each leg was about 14km
The day after, to Siguerio was the longest day at about 24km.
We met Maria the cab driver through Begonia, the desk clerk at Hotel Garralos in Betanzos. Maria is fabulous! She showed up at the right time, knew a bit of English and knows the countryside. +34 600 41 55 01.
I walked the Camino Ingles in September 2019 and loved it! There is an albergue just before Presedo which could break your walk from Betanzos to Hospital de Bruma into two manageable sections. According to John Brierley's book, the albergeue would be about 11 km out of Betanzos. I did not stop at the albergue since my plans were to walk all the way to Bruma in a single day. However, there was a wonderful cafe in Presedo where we stopped for coffee and lunch. That gave us plenty of fuel and energy for the long and steady climb to Bruma.So does anyone know if there is private accommodation anywhere in between Betanzos and Hospital de Bruma?

Good question about breaking up this section. A taxi might be your best option, as stated already.So does anyone know if there is private accommodation anywhere in between Betanzos and Hospital de Bruma?

I also stayed at Meson Novo and arranged a pickup via Antonio who sent his son to pick up and subsequently dropped me off at Hospital de Bruma next day. Antonio refused payment for the taxi service. I attended his bar and ate simple Tapas (lage potions more like a raccion) for my evning meal. The hotel rooms were simple and clean and cheap.in 2018 we stayed 2 nights with Antonio at Meson Nova mesonnovo@mesonnovo.com

The albergue is in Mi~no. (Sorry, can’t get the right character.)I walked the Camino Ingles in September 2019 and loved it!
