Where to stay in Villarcayo
Villarcayo is a small town, so your best bet is to stay centrally, where you can walk to the weekly market without any fuss. Try Town Centre for easy access to the market square and the local bars and restaurants around it.
If you prefer something with a bit more comfort, look for rural hotels or casa rurales just outside the town, which are common in this part of Castile and León. Merindad de Castilla la Vieja offers some good options in the surrounding countryside if you want a quieter base for exploring the region.
