Maximise your visit to the historically and aesthetically outstanding Santiago de Composetela at Muino de San Lorenza.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The Camino de Santiago de Compostela, known in English as The Way of Saint James, is a 1000 year old pilgrimage to the shrine of St. James in the cathedral of Santiago de Composetela.<\/p>\n

Each year more than 100,000 pilgrims from all over the world travel to the Galician city to join the historical pilgrimage. Given its international renown and following, the pilgrimage has been the subject of many television programmes, books and publications.<\/p>\n

The latest broadcasting venture to feature the heart-rending journey is a film called The Way, which stars Martin Sheen and his son Emilio Estevez. The Way is due to be released in Britain on 13 May 2011.<\/p>\n

Such a historical and internationally-recognised pilgrimage attracts a large amount of tourist activity, many wanting to take part in the pilgrimage and others preferring to watch the poignant event and visit the walk\u2019s final destination, the magnificent city of Santiago de Compostela.<\/p>\n

This remarkable city is the capital of the autonomous community of Galicia in northern Spain, a region which stands out, not just because of its autonomy, but because of its lush, fertile and verdant landscapes, which contrast significantly to Spain\u2019s notoriously dry and arid backdrops.<\/p>\n

Whatever your reason for visiting this historically and aesthetically outstanding region of Spain, staying in accommodation of similar visual and historical splendour would significantly enhance the quality of your holiday.<\/p>\n

Vintage Travel excels in finding such \u201csecret jewels\u201d, and none more so than the lovingly-restored mill house, Muino de San Lorenza.<\/p>\n

This beautifully renovated four bedroom, four bathroom property, is situated across a lovely stream at the bottom of a wooded slope, providing some much welcome shade in the summer months.<\/p>\n

Muino de San Lorenza, which can sleep up to seven, has retained many of its original features, including stone walls, wooden beams and a millstone in the lounge.<\/p>\n

With its own private pool, open patios and grassy gardens, relaxing around the house is almost as appealing than exploring the local history, culture and beauty when you are staying at Muino de San Lorenza.<\/p>\n

A week\u2019s rental in Muino de san Lorenza<\/a> costs \u00a31050 in May, or \u00a3625 for a smaller party of up to four, rising to \u00a31895 in peak season.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
