Bel\u00e9n is a single mum, mother of two, who runs La Casa del Abuelo with her sister and parents.<\/p>\n<p>I have to say Bel\u00e9n is one of the hardest working and most entrepreneurial people I have seen in the Camino so far. When we arrived at one o&#8217;clock, she broke out from the lunch service in their little restaurant to take us into the casa rural. She very quickly showed us around where we could make our breakfast and some more facilities of the casa rural. She then raced back to complete the lunch service with her sister, working in the kitchen and Bel\u00e9n herself doing all of the waiting duties.<\/p>\n<p>After lunch at the other end of town, we decided to try Bel\u00e9n&#8217;s little restaurant for dinner.<\/p>\n<p>We certainly weren&#8217;t disappointed. Pat had a really nice men\u00fa del dia, whilst I had a paella. Again, Bel\u00e9n was still going at a hundred miles an hour, and this was at eight o&#8217;clock at night, and I had noticed after lunch she took time out to help her two kids with their homework in the corner of the restaurant.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1965\" src=\"https:\/\/robscamino.com\/2018\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Mary-Supermum-La-Casa-del-Abuelo.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"960\" height=\"440\" srcset=\"https:\/\/robscamino.com\/2018\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Mary-Supermum-La-Casa-del-Abuelo.jpg 960w, https:\/\/robscamino.com\/2018\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Mary-Supermum-La-Casa-del-Abuelo-300x138.jpg 300w, https:\/\/robscamino.com\/2018\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Mary-Supermum-La-Casa-del-Abuelo-768x352.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 960px) 100vw, 960px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2178\" src=\"https:\/\/robscamino.com\/2018\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/La-Casa-del-Abuelo-Paella.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"960\" height=\"440\" srcset=\"https:\/\/robscamino.com\/2018\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/La-Casa-del-Abuelo-Paella.jpg 960w, https:\/\/robscamino.com\/2018\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/La-Casa-del-Abuelo-Paella-300x138.jpg 300w, https:\/\/robscamino.com\/2018\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/La-Casa-del-Abuelo-Paella-768x352.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 960px) 100vw, 960px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1966\" src=\"https:\/\/robscamino.com\/2018\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/La-Casa-Del-Abuelo-Hornillos-Restaurant.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"960\" height=\"440\" srcset=\"https:\/\/robscamino.com\/2018\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/La-Casa-Del-Abuelo-Hornillos-Restaurant.jpg 960w, https:\/\/robscamino.com\/2018\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/La-Casa-Del-Abuelo-Hornillos-Restaurant-300x138.jpg 300w, https:\/\/robscamino.com\/2018\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/La-Casa-Del-Abuelo-Hornillos-Restaurant-768x352.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 960px) 100vw, 960px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>So if you&#8217;re looking for a comfortable bed and really a good meal in a facility with a really great customer service and a focus on simple quality, I would recommend La Casa del Abuelo run by Bel\u00e9n, the supermum.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4><em><strong>See Full Gallery:<\/strong> <span style=\"color: #3366ff;\"><a style=\"color: #3366ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/robscamino.com\/2018\/day-19-burgos-to-hornillos-gallery\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Burgos to Hornillos<\/a><\/span><\/em><\/h4>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last night we stayed at La Casa del Abuelo in Hornillos.
