Where to stay in Villamayor
Villamayor is a small village just outside Salamanca, so your best bet is to stay in Salamanca City Centre and make the short trip out for the markets. You'll find plenty of good options there, from budget guesthouses to comfortable mid-range hotels.
If you want something closer to the village itself, look for rural accommodation in Villamayor village, where a few local guesthouses offer a quieter base. Either way, having a car will make getting around much easier.

Street markets in Villamayor
The Villamayor de Santiago Weekly Market is the larger of the two, with 10 stalls offering clothing, footwear and handicrafts outdoors each week. It is a practical stop for anyone looking to pick up everyday goods or locally made items without travelling far into the province.
The Tejemaneje Solidarity Market takes a different approach, focusing on clothing and handicrafts with a community-oriented ethos. The stall count varies, but the market runs weekly and provides a complementary option alongside the main weekly market for those who want to browse handmade crafts in particular.
Planning your visit
Both markets in Villamayor are held outdoors, so checking the weather before you go is worthwhile, especially in the colder months. Villamayor de Santiago sits within Cuenca province, and if you have time to extend your trip, nearby towns such as Tarancón and Mota del Cuervo also have their own market days worth exploring. For general tourist information about the area, the Turismo de Castilla-La Mancha site is a reliable resource for planning.
