Where to stay in Bustarviejo
Bustarviejo is a small mountain village, so accommodation options are limited but charming. Staying in Town Centre puts you within easy walking distance of the local market and the main square, which makes getting around on foot very simple.
If you prefer a rural feel, look for a casa rural in the surrounding area, as several small guesthouses operate just outside the village and offer a quiet base for exploring the Sierra de la Cabrera. From Madrid city, Bustarviejo is also an easy day trip if you'd rather stay in the capital and drive up for market day.

Street markets in Bustarviejo
The Bustarviejo Weekly Market is the largest in town, running weekly with 8 stalls selling fresh fruit, fresh vegetables, meat and poultry, and clothing. It is a practical stop for everyday shopping rather than a tourist attraction, and gives a clear picture of what locals actually buy week to week.
The Mercado a Pie de Huerta sets itself apart as Bustarviejo's organic and artisan food market, offering fresh fruit, fresh vegetables, organic produce, and cheese and dairy. The name translates roughly as "market at the foot of the orchard," reflecting its focus on produce sourced close to the land. If local and organic food is your priority, this is the market to plan your visit around.
The Bustarviejo Craft Market runs weekly outdoors and focuses on handmade goods, making it a different kind of outing from the food-led markets. The Bustarviejo Christmas Market also takes place weekly and is the most seasonally specific of the four, best visited in the weeks leading up to the holidays.
Bustarviejo sits within the Madrid province market network. If you are exploring the wider sierra area, nearby villages also hold their own weekly markets worth combining into a day out.
Planning your visit
All four markets in Bustarviejo are held outdoors, so weather matters.
