Where Casa Rural Molí d'en Pi is and how to get there
Casa Rural Molí d'en Pi is on the edge of Morella, in the province of Castellón, in the Valencian Community. Its address is the CV-14 road, and several guests place it a couple of kilometres from the old town.
That means countryside and quiet, but also that most people arrive by car. The house has private parking, free of charge, so there is no need to circle looking for a space. One review mentions views of Morella from the estate, which I think is a real plus.
What the house is like and what it offers
Molí d'en Pi is a farmhouse with a traditional feel, with original stone and wood and a well-kept garden. According to the property's details, it has four bedrooms and three bathrooms, with bed linen and towels included.
- Fully equipped kitchen and television.
- Balcony facing the sierra, ideal for breakfast outdoors.
- Garden and countryside setting.
- Free private parking.
One thing to clarify. Some guests say they rented rooms in the farmhouse, run by María and her husband, while the old description refers to the whole house. If you are looking for one or the other, confirm it before booking.
What guests highlight
The Google rating is 4.5 from 24 reviews. It is a small sample, but almost every rating is five stars and they repeat the same points.
- The hosts. María and her husband are described as kind people who make you feel at home and help organise days out.
- The animals. Donkeys, sheep and hens come up again and again, and children love feeding them.
- The quiet. Several people describe it as a place to relax, switch off and recharge.
- Value for money. One guest sums it up as nice, good and cheap.
One family with two children say they did not stop during their stay, between the villages of the area and the walking routes in the Benifassà natural park. Another recommends a visit to Mirambell.
What to know before you book
The house has drawbacks, and it is better to read them now than to find them on arrival. The main one is that pets are not allowed. One guest complained about this, because the farm animals are part of the appeal and she travels with her own. If your dog is one of the family, you will not be able to bring it here.
There is also a very negative review, from many years ago, about breakfast and the owner's manner. It contrasts with everything else, which speaks of kindness, so I would take it as an isolated case, although it is worth asking what breakfast includes if it matters to you.
One last practical point. Many reviews are already a few years old, so confirm with the property how things are now and which rental formula they offer.
Who this Morella country house is for
I would choose it for families with children who want to see farm animals, and for couples or small groups who want to switch off with views of Morella. With four bedrooms and three bathrooms, it suits a getaway with friends or a trip across generations.
It is not for anyone who wants to walk to the village bars, nor for anyone travelling with a pet. I would not choose it either if you expect a hotel with constant services.
Things to see and do near Morella
From Molí d'en Pi, Morella is very close, with its historic centre, for a relaxed stroll. According to guests, the location is excellent for visiting the town and its surroundings.
The Benifassà natural park is a reasonable drive away and offers walking routes. The property's own description mentions walking and cycling, and Mirambell is another recommended stop. If you combine the visit with the town, a few days gives you a full plan.
To sum up, Casa Rural Molí d'en Pi in Morella keeps things simple, with countryside, animals and a friendly welcome. If that is what you want, it comes out very well in the reviews.
Passionate about travel and about the kind of places that turn a getaway into something unforgettable. I love writing about hotels, country houses and charming hideaways, helping every traveller find the perfect place to rest and feel at home.
