    Hi just after a bit of advice traveling to Spain from Bilbao to Mezzeron about 550 miles now were not going to try and ride it in one go and was wondering if accommodation is easy to get when we decide to call it a day or is it better to book a hotel and do it that way any advice would be welcome haven't toured Spain Boo

    We did 17 days last year around Spain, never booked anything during the whole trip, & never struggled to get in anywhere. :)

    :Edit:
    Do you mean Mazarrón over on the Costa Callida?

    As Gary said many font have issues.... But depends on group and time of year.

    8 going in July and we booked and we struggled to get rooms for that number via booking.com so booked every night as didnt fancy the stress of finding somewhere each day on top of a big ride in mega heat ;)

    In December I had no problem - was the only bike on the boat mind and needed the heated grips to melt the ice before I could ride in the mornings

    Now that takes me back to "I think France Hates Me!" Spain was nothing like what I expected in January too.

    just do it im off there in three days never book and haven't for the last three years you will love it .when passing through some places you might think fxxk it this place looks amazing lets stop here and so you can without a worry in the world instead of being under pressure to get to a point that you have booked
