Accommodation in Jumilla: Finca del Olmo

A rural hotel on a large country plot which also includes the Jumilla motor racing circuit
The Finca del Olmo, which is affiliated to the Wine Route of Jumilla, is a rural hotel in the south of the large municipality on an 800-hectare plot which also contains a race track, enabling guests to enjoy karting, race driving classes and a host of other activities.
Despite the motor sports focus, though, this is also a wide swathe of countryside in a beautiful rural environment, with views out towards the mountains of Sierra del Carche to the north (maximum altitude 1,372 metres, higher than Ben Nevis!) and Sierra de la Pila to the south, and the establishment hosts a wide range of special celebratory parties and events. Guests can enjoy hunting, horse riding, clay pigeon shooting, karting, buggy routes, country walks and even helicopter and balloon flights, and this is not restricted to the warm summer months: the open fireplaces provide a welcoming atmosphere all year round.
The accommodation includes standard, standard double and luxury suites, all equipped with heating, air conditioning, TV and bathrooms, and room prices include breakfast.
There is also a restaurant specializing in rice dishes and grilled meat, and a well-stocked wine cellar, as is to be expected given the prestige enjoyed by the Denomination of Origin wines of Jumilla.
How to find Finca del Olmo
Leave the A-33 Murcia-Jumilla motorway at kilometre 25 and take the n-344 road (the old main road which runs alongside) for around 3 kilometres heading north. At the roundabout, turn right (back over the motorway) on the RM-427 towards Pinoso, and after 8 kilometres or so Finca del Olmo is signposted on the right.

Oficina de Turismo Jumilla
The tourist office in the centre of Jumilla is easily found by driving straight into the centre of the town along the Avenida de Murcia and following the signposts. The tourist office is alongside the Parque de Don Albano Martínez Molina, where there are a number of parking spaces.
Jumilla, in the north of the Region of Murcia, has become internationally famous over recent decades due to the quality of the wines produced in the municipality, and wine tourism has begun to attract visitors from other parts of Spain and the rest of Europe.
The tourist office is happy to provide a range of maps and leaflets showing the different bodegas which can be visited within the municipality. Some of these form part of the Rutas del Vino de Jumilla, the Jumilla wine route, and can either be visited as a guided tour or sell their produce directly to the public.(see feed below for more details)
However, the town and the surrounding countryside have plenty of other attractions for visitors, and the popularity of Jumilla wines is leading more and more people to discover other facets of the tenth largest municipality in Spain.

These include the spectacular countryside and birdlife in the Sierra del Carche, the historic remains which range from cave paintings and a Roman mausoleum to the castle, the Iglesia de Santiago, the Town Hall and the Teatro Vico, and the gastronomy: rich stews are accompanied not only by the wines of the area but also by Jumilla pears, which also enjoy Denomination of Origin status.
Tourism in Jumilla is not as seasonal as it is in the coastal areas of the Region of Murcia, but the town is at its liveliest during the fiestas in Holy Week and the August Fair, which incorporates the grape harvest celebrations and the Moors and Christians parades.
The Altiplano of the Region of Murcia, which consists of the municipalities of Jumilla and Yecla, is only just over an hour by car from the Mar Menor, Cartagena, Mazarrón, Torrevieja and Alicante, and anyone wishing to visit real inland Spain and world-class wineries is advised to include Jumilla in their schedule.
