Beautiful space

This was the most beautiful building and grounds we stayed in between Ribadeo and Santiago. Definitely worth the stay!

This hostel is so beautifull, maintained with love and care. The garden where one can relax, cousy places in the house to sit. One of my favourite in the Norte.

Amazing hostel, September 2025

I think this is my favorite place on the whole Norte, starting from Irun. It’s beautiful, the food is really nice (also for vegetarians!) and there is a pool that you can use if you arrive on a hot day or you are into cold water swimming. Jaime is lovely.

Food

Really lovely place well run. Spotlessly clean. The only small thing was the evening meal was very basic lentil soup and tortilla for main course with salad I never would associate a tortilla as a main evening dish

Favorite albergue and well positioned

The albergue is a homey renovated home, and the dinner was delicious! Clean and beautifully designed home with a relaxing outdoor space (and pool!), this place is an oasis. Not a lot of beds, so reserve in advance, and enjoy this quiet friendly stop between the normal stages.

Amazing

This place is amazing. In the nature, with a pool and lots of space outside.
The owners are amazing too and the dinner they prepared was top.
If you own to stay here, make a reservation as they have a small number of beds.

This is the best albergue to

This is the best albergue to stay on the Norte. Beautifully renovated stone house, warm welcoming owners. Great supper. Swimming pool. Loungers, hammocks. The owner made sure that I get a long bed (I am 195 cm or 6’4”). Do not miss this one.

Newly renovated, beautifully

Newly renovated, beautifully renovated by the owner himself. Stone picnic tables and hammocks and a swimming pool in yard. Wonderful dinner and breakfast. This will be your new favorite place to stay!

It’s perfect. I am here alone

It’s perfect. I am here alone tonight and still the chef turned up cooked me a fantastic meal and entertained me. At this low season they expect people to call in advance as they may not be on site to care for you. I just knocked on the door. luckily the owners were in. And what a great place to stay. Only about 12 beds. so ensure your pre plan and call ahead to ensure a space. However March is slack season. Absolutely Certainly worth walking he extra 3.5km for.
