“A lovely place to stay in an attractive rural setting.”
This is an outstanding B&B-style accommodation in a pretty village along the Camino de Santiago. The host was very helpful and the room was amazing. I highly recommend staying here as a base for exploring the area.

Everything was perfect, the rooms, the saloons, the house itself. Carlos and Daina were just so nice and the location for this house is the best. It is clear they put so much effort for the customers to enjoy their stay. I am a spanish traveler and I will definitely be coming back. Thank you Carlos and Daina!

“Wow, just wow, the best accommodation on the Camino!!”
Wow, this is the most beautiful place to stay. We couldn't believe that we were so lucky to stay in such stylish surroundings while walking the Camino. I recommend it highly, the room is large, beautiful and comfortable, the view from the large common area was impressive. There were lovely little touches like kids toys and games for our 7 year old and books for adults, along with a kettle and tea chest with an impressive selection. The candlelight breakfast was delicious and such a beautiful atmosphere.

This hotel is worth changing your travel route just to visit this wonderful place. It feels like every piece of decor is a museum exhibit with its own story or legend, and if you wish, the friendly host will gladly share it with you. We truly enjoyed the atmosphere of this house, the cleanliness, and the lounge where you can enjoy coffee or wine—whichever you prefer.
