[Gocamino] accommodations on the Camino Portuguese

[Javier Martin]

As I now,

There's a new albergue in Barcelos (PT).
I suggest in Ponte de Lima to sleep in a little hotel owned by Mª das Dores,
phone 258941617. She is a lovely person, discover her!
As the stage Ponte de Lima-Tui is very long (42 km) there's a little hotel
in the middle, just after the "Serra do Labruja". It's call "O Repouso do
Peregrino", special prizes for pilgrins.
In Valenca, two km. before Tui, there's a new albergue.

Barcelos, Ponte de Lima, Valenca and Tui are very, very, very beautiful
cities, try to visit as much as possible.

And in Galicia, Albergues, of course.

Best regards and Buen Camino !!
