Cuerres has a slightly off-camino gem: the Iglesia de San Mamés, which served as a pilgrim hospital in the 16th and 17th centuries and preserves a fine stone vault. In front stands the 16th-century Fuente de Peregrinos (Pilgrim Fountain) — one of the few medieval pilgrim infrastructure elements still standing on the Norte. Worth the detour.
San Antón is celebrated on the 17th of January.

Casa Rural Villalen is a great place to stay, either just overnight or for a rest day. The rooms are spacious and comfortable. The dinner is impressive, I think we had five courses!

It is a fantastic quiet place. The host was very kind, cooked a delicious dinner and breakfast. Showed us the most beautiful coastline of Spain!

Really enjoyed staying here. I think I could spend a week there just chilling. Good meals, wine and great host.

We cannot recommend this place enough! We have a lovely room and the house and gardens are quiet and serene. We just ate an incredible 5-course dinner and we’re looking forward to breakfast. This is a lovely stay on the Camino!
