Three adults-only apartments on a citrus farm beside the Segura, in Villanueva del Río Segura, with terrace, kitchen and breakfast kit.

La Joya del Valle de Ricote is three apartments within the Finca Vista Hermosa, more than 120,000 m² of citrus trees beside the River Segura, in the municipality of Villanueva del Río Segura. It is farm tourism for adults: the farm runs on solar panels and drip irrigation, and belongs to the Soy Ecoturista network. You get there along the MU-522 road, at kilometre 4.5, and you need a car to get around the valley.
El Cactus, La Haymah and La Palmera
Each apartment is independent and has a private terrace:

El Cactus, a 38 m² one-bedroom suite for two, with a 180 cm bed, a 14 m² terrace, equipped kitchen, dishwasher, washing machine, wood stove and fireplace.
La Haymah de Ibn Arabí, a 31 m² studio for two, with a 160 cm bed, kitchenette and the largest terrace of the three, at 27 m². It has heating, but no wood stove.
La Palmera, a two-bedroom apartment of 57 m², for up to four people, with one 180 cm bed and two 90 cm beds, one bathroom, a 16 m² terrace, equipped kitchen, washing machine and fireplace.

All three have air conditioning, heating, free wifi, safe, television, coffee machine, kettle, microwave, hairdryer and minibar, and a garage. Smoking is not allowed.
Breakfast is do-it-yourself
The website does not advertise a restaurant on the farm: each apartment includes a Mediterranean breakfast kit with local produce to have whenever you like on the terrace or in the kitchen. To eat out, in the same municipality there is Jardines de Villanueva, with fruit-tree wood chargrill; call ahead, because it only serves with a reservation.
