A Unique Rural Self-Catering Holiday and Retreat on Spain’s River Ebro
Welcome to the El-Figueral Holiday experience
This is very unique, exclusive and secluded farmhouse from which we offer self-catering holiday accommodation. The farmhouse is located on the banks of the River Ebro with private access for fishing and boating and with the nearest village of Benifallet, a quirky riverside village about 3km away.
The location of El-Figueral takes full advantage of our beautiful River Ebro valley’s 360° views, so If you are looking for peace and quiet with a touch of luxury and you want to holiday in the “real Spain” then El-Figueral is what your looking for.
El-Figueral is ideal for families looking for a relaxing rural holiday around our large pool and patios and with lots of scope for walking, cycling, beaches, historical excursions, kayaking, great local food and wine and of course private fishing on the famous River Ebro.
While the accommodation is self-catering we understand that our guests sometimes like to be pampered so we offer offer additional services such as relaxing therapies or having a meal prepared by a professional chief.
