An albergue and town bar sit up a flight of steps on your left as you arrive. The village is small but the services are welcome on this stretch.

You don't need to climb the stairs as there's another bar just around the corner. Also, the camino is not the prettiest after this for a WHILE (just roads and fields, which is not nice on a hot day), so do stop here to get some rest/food. Next place to stop is Vilaserio.

Albergue Rectoral San Mamede da Pena was our favourite stay on the camino. For an authentic albergue experience, this is a must-stop! The 3-course pilgrim dinner is hearty, home cooked, and feels like being welcomed into someone’s home. We loved it so much we stayed twice on the way to Finisterre and again returning to Santiago. Highly recommend!

Pilgrim Menü for 12€ (vegetarian option available) is really worth it!

It’s a beautiful place to stop for a break.

Albergue Alto da Penu - what a wonderful host, a really authentic welcome. Great food at the family dinner, 3 courses and seemingly unlimited wine for €12. It was a wonderful experience

They could not do enough to make things nice. Good prices, washer worked awesome, food and the layout was very nice. I really liked the service and how friendly and pilgrim supportive they were.
20. August 2020 - 10:20
The Menu was €10 including wine and was all fresh homemade and delicious. They catered for vegetarians well. It was a communal meal at 7.30.
Later I noticed pizzas were being made in the lovely pizza oven.
Plus it was a bonus doing the hill up from Olveiroa in the light because it's really beautiful, and so it's done at the end of day one rather than the beginning of day 2.
