  Accommodation

The Refugio de Perigrinos de Miraz  is a former casa rectoral in the village of Miraz.  It has a pleasant aspect, set slightly above the roadway and close to the Camino.

The house itself is about 11 metres wide by 14 metres deep. At the back is a huerta of some 600 square metres, with fruit trees and a wide gate at the bottom end that gives access to vehicles.  It is suitable for camping, caravaning, horses, and other livestock.  There is a small garden and one dilapidated brick outbuilding which is currently used for storage.

Donativos

Donativo box   In keeping with the ethos of the Confraternity, genuine pilgrims are welcomed in the refugio and provided with hospitality without obligation, other than to observe the simple rules. Pilgrims are invited to make a donation which will go towards running costs.


Food

A continental breakfast is supplied to pilgrims staying at the refuge.  Evening meals are not provided, but pilgrims may use the kitchen at the discretion of the hospitaleros.

There are no restaurants in the village so it is suggested that pilgrims bring their food with them.  Some emergency supplies such as rice, pasta, packets of soup and some tins, are sometimes available for sale at the refuge.
