  • Roomy, shaded and grassy site among an oak wood near Sarria's centre
  • A short stroll from the St James’s Way pilgrimage route
  • Modern restaurant and bar with two terraces to relax around
After a hard day’s hiking or riding along the St James’s Way trail, you’ll be glad to hole up here... Camping Vila de Sarria’s pitches are shaded, spacious, open and set among an oak forest... there’s a swish café-bar and restaurant on site too. In Spain’s Lugo province, 20 minutes’ walk from the banks of the Sarria river and five minutes’ drive from Sarria’s town centre, this is a top spot for hikers on the St James’s Way pilgrimage route to rest their weary bods. The well-worn pilgrims’ path passes through nearby Sarria, and continues on to the final destination of Santiago de Compostela (usually reached in about seven days from Sarria). The route from here goes via shaded oak woods and quiet country roads, through comely villages like Barbadelo and Ferreiros, and, around six hours' hike away, to the café terraces lining the main square of the next rest stop, pretty Portomarin. The fodder available at the site’s café-bar and restaurant will be much welcomed by tired pilgrims too: settle back in the evening for food and a few tipples on the wide open restaurant terrace, or pick up a light bite (think sandwiches, pizzas and ice cream) or a beer at the café-bar, around its airy interior or at one of its two scenic terraces. The site is roomy and has lots of natural shade from oak trees, as well as plenty of grassy space to stretch out around, and loads of room for littlies to let off steam.

What customers say

This campsite is a peaceful, natural spot, praised for its shady, level sites perfect for hot weather. Guests love the clean washrooms and beautiful glamping tents. Friendly, helpful hosts and the restaurant (great steak & music!) are highlights. Ideal stopover near the Camino de Santiago and Sarria. Basic facilities, occasional hot water, and underwhelming Sarria are minor notes.

From the manager: Gracias por tu opinión Steve, nos alegra que hayas descansado con nosotros. Sentimos que hayas tenido un problema con el agua y aún no entendemos cómo porque el agua sale a 56 grados por el grifo, medidos cada día y a 38 por la ducha, de hecho, esta misma semana hemos tenido que bajarla un grado a petición de una familia porque la consideraban muy caliente por los niños, por eso nos parece extraño lo que nos dices. Quizá te pareció fría 37º? O quizá algún problema para girar el grifo a agua caliente? Nadie más dijo nada y hemos preguntado al recibir tu reseña, todos dicen que la encuentran caliente. No entendemos. En todo caso, nos alegramos que hayas disfrutado con nosotros y te agradecemos tu reseña pues nos ayuda a mejorar. Buen viaje!

Liked Lovely wooded pitch - perfect for very hot weather. Very quiet. Spotless bathrooms - basic but functional. We stayed in our van - but the glamping tents were beautiful inside. We enjoyed a beautiful cycle in the surrounding countryside. The site is perfect for a short stopover.

Disliked Sarria town itself was very underwhelming-very few nice places to eat or drink.

Liked Met de teruggave van onze kosten door de camping.

Disliked De camping was niet open ondanks dat dit wel zo aangegeven werd op Pitchup. De camping had hun dit wel laten weten maar daar is niet op gereageerd.
Zeer slechte ervaring!

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Sentimos que haya tenido esa experiencia, pero no ha sido culpa nuestra y nos ha valorado a nosotros. Ha sido un error de pitch up con el calendario de apertura (semana Santa a 30 de Septiembre) pues cada año es el mismo y este año lo abrió antes sin previo aviso ni comunicación de ningún tipo. Nosotros, hicimos lo único que podíamos hacer, le devolvimos un dinero que es la comisión de pitch up y que en ningún caso nos reembolsarán, creo que no nos merecíamos su valoración. Quizá debería valorar a pitch up y no nuestro perfil. En todo caso, nos disculpamos de nuevo, este año no confiaremos en el buen hacer de la plataforma y revisaremos el perfil antes de la fecha, nos ha servido de lección.

💯 Western. Fantastic place to be

Liked Oh man… what a spot. Get there and relax. The whole place looks better than on photos. Hygiene and services are top class. Cherry on the cake is the restaurant… stake is delicious! All that with music… the host got splendid taste: Bob Dylan, Neil Young, Johnny Cash. 💯 western vibe!

Israel A.

Power optional grass tent or trailer tent campsite

Liked Camping genial en medio de un bosque, con personal super amable y muy tranquilo. Instalaciones limpias, un campo de fúbtol y/o juego para los niños y un bar dentro del camping pero suficientemente lejos para no molestar.

Disliked No olviden llevar algo para el suelo (lona, tapiz, manta...) yendo con tiendas de campaña para poder hacer el cambio de calzado etc más cómo porque el suelo es tierra. Única pega.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Sentimos que su experiencia no haya sido del todo agradable. Y también que nos diga que no había agua caliente pues no es cierto y no le ocurrió a nadie más, quizá olvidó girar la llave a caliente, azul frío, rojo caliente. En todo caso, si nos lo hubiese comentado, se hubiese resuelto el problema y su estancia hubiese mejorado. En cuanto al restaurante en temporada alta está abierto todos los días, pero es una empresa diferente y no está bajo nuestro control, aún así sentimos las molestias.

Defiently worth a visit.

Local attractions

Perhaps the biggest draw for Sarria is that it lies right on the St James’s Way pilgrimage route, providing amblers somewhere highly pleasant to plonk themselves overnight before heading on to Portomarin, 22 kilometres away. For outdoorsy days, head to the O Chanto recreational site on the banks of the Sarria river; here leisure seekers can get stuck into fishing at several reserves along the water’s course, as well as hunting, more hiking or horse riding. Also here is a picnic area and an outdoor public pool. Foodies will be happy around Sarria too: around the town’s eateries try local specialities like cocido, a traditional stew made primarily of pork, octopus, pastry and game, plus dishes centred around partridge, boar and hare. If you’re feeling particularly adventurous, round your dins off with a blood crepe or milk and egg freixos with cream or honey.
