Hi,

We are in Villa Nova D’Arosa and I wanted to stay in the Monastery tomorrow night, but my daughter does not want to. She wants to find a place halfway so we don’t have so far to walk to Santiago the next day.

Does anyone know a place halfway between Padron and Santiago? I prefer guest houses or I’d love to find a Monastery. Thank you!
 
The one from Galicia (the round) and the one from Castilla & Leon. Individually numbered and made by the same people that make the ones you see on your walk.

Check Gronze.com for options. Link above.
 
A little bit more than half way is O Milladoiro. A great albergue, quite modern, and only about 6 - 8 kms to walk into Santiago in the morning.
 
...and ship it to Santiago for storage. You pick it up once in Santiago. Service offered by Casa Ivar (we use DHL for transportation).
We were walking to Santiago on a hot day and decided to stop at O Milladoiro when we got there. That turned out to be a very good decision. We stayed in a modern, private albergue and had a short pleasant walk to Santiago the next morning - giving us the whole day in Santiago. If I do this route again, I will plan to do it this way.

I am staying at a hotel in Brion and then going on to Santiago.

That sounds like a great idea!

I did the same and was very happy with this decision.
