Here is the correct information for contacting the albergue in Sao Caetano and for the casa rural in Atalaia. They are two different places, and the
Brierley guide seems to have them mixed up. This corroboration comes straight from the Camino Angel in Santarem, otherwise known as Mario of Santarem Hostel . Happy to report that the numbers are correct in the online CSJ guide.
Casa do Patriarca (rural tourism B&B). 6 rooms, 50€ for a double. Kitchen for guests’ use to cook, or there is a restaurant 50 m away. Very nice gardens and common rooms. Tel. 24 971 0581; website
www.casadopatriarca.pt.vu.
Albergue de Alexandre Hachmeister (9 beds); 15 euros with breakfast. Tel: 917 063 823 (this is the same as what you might also see referred to as Albergue de Sao Caetano).
Mario actually called Sao Caetano and though it took a while to get through to Alexandre, it is the correct number. However, Alexandre also gave Mario the phone number of his partner, Ana Rita Sanches, which is the one you should use:
The new telephone number is (+351) 914951076 speak to Ana Rita Sanches.
So for those of you who want to stay in Sao Caetano/Albergue Hachmeister, you now have a new phone number to try.
Good luck to everyone out there on the Caminho Portugues. Bom caminho, Laurie
