    One tiny bar of soap for all your toiletry needs (no separate soap for shower, or for washing hair, etc. No heat, although we didn't ask for it to be turned on.

    Good location on Camino. Pandaria/cage across street manages it, so food easily available and tasty, and hours work for hungry Pilgrims. Room quiet and comfortable.

    A cosy room in a small village on the Camino de Santiago. It rained during the afternoon and it was so relaxing listening to the rain.The room was small but very comfortable.The bathroom also small but adequate with nice shower.

    Lovely property right in the Camino as you enter the town. Check in is at the panaderia across the road and was super easy. My room was beautiful and spotless. The host was amazing and I ate an early dinner at the panaderia that afternoon and it was delicious!! A great stay!

    We liked everything about the property. We had a huge room with a kitchenette. After checking in (made it so easy). We had a huge bowl of the best spaghetti bolognese we’ve had on the Camino. Room was spotless and sound proof. Spent the rest of the day watching peregrinos walking by. One of our best days on the Camino. Loved it! The hosts are so gracious and kind.

    This was a very place on the Camino. Check in across the street at the panaderia. The woman was nice in showing us the room. We forgot our water bottle in the panaderia and then she closed, but I saw her outside. She said she couldn't back in that night. But she made a call to the owner and gave us the water bottle. She was great! There is no kitchen, but there is a common area with a big dining table. The room had high ceilings and the shower was fully enclosed. The drying rack outside gets pretty good sun if you dry from early afternoon.

    Great Hostal/Casa Rural on El Camino at the entrance of Vega de Valcarce

    • Large Double Room
    • Stayed 1 night

    A very clean, comfortable and beautiful home (Casa rural) with only a few units on top level (other units on lower level but you cannot hear any sounds from that level. We enjoyed the ceiling fan, and modern windows with blinds. The double room was in an attic with private bath. Comfortable bed; water pressure and temperature were great. It was a cool night and it rained which made a sound coming from the highway in the background seem as if it were thunder. It has a very homey living room, nicely decorated and areas for sitting outside as well.

    I could not figure out how to raise the shutters for light.

    Bianca and El Recanto were a delightful find. We rented the downstairs apartment, and it was everything we needed. The kitchenette was sufficient for us to prepare our dinner meal. The bathroom was spacious and the shower was hot with excellent water pressure. Bianca has done an excellent job with her branding of El Recanto. You will love this property if you have the opportunity to book. Bianca also has a cafe/bakery across the street. We enjoyed a fresh salad, pasta w/tomato sauce and pound cake.
