Country Cottage Tours
May 29, 2012Take a break away from the usual sun, sea and sand and venture into the French countryside with a walking holiday from Camino Ways.
Country Cottage Tours with Camino Ways allow travellers to experience nature and local culture, as well as authentic accommodation choices.
With this tour, travellers will walk the last section of the French Way, the most popular pilgrimage route between Sarria and Santiago de Compostela. Split into 5 walking days and 6 nights, the walk is roughly 100km and along the way has sights such as the unique church of Melide, the Pope’s monument in Monte do Gozo and the holy city of Santiago de Compostela.
During the trip, travellers will stay in beautiful country lodges, as opposed to classic hotels. The stand out points of these accommodation choices lie in their character, authenticity, space, gardens, personal touches and use of authentic local produce.
Casa Brandariz is one such property. This 16th Century lord-house and farm consists of typical Galician-style buildings, including stables and their own chapel attached. Set within rolling hills, it is full of charm.
