A small village. A bakery on your left as you pass through. The camino continues past a chapel and park, then begins the steady uphill climb to Portela de Tamel.
The camino passes a convenient bakery on your left as it crosses through town. Pass the front of the chapel and keep to your left, passing another chapel and park not far after. At this point you begin the steady uphill climb to Portela de Tamel, passing along the way intermittent strings of housing.

I stayed at the pleasant guest house at the horse farm close to the bakery. It was €30, a bit steep for a solo pilgrim, but very nice and well stocked. I particularly enjoyed body lotion after my bath. Oh, the joy!

The convenient bakery (Cafe Arantes) conveniently maintains access to Casa de Sao Sebastiao: a beautifully, well maintained rural accommodation up the road.
The family are very nice and welcoming; and in doing so, extend accommodation options between Barcelos and Tamel (Sao Pedro Fins).
