In the region of Empordà, Girona, Catalonia- very near to the French border, you can find an exceptional farmhouse with over 50 years of experience in the fruit growing business. Mooma Cider House and Restaurant is an innovative family-run project that delights the palate of travellers with apple derived products. We invite you to visit this stopover in your motorhomes and campervans, to participate in their tourism activities and dine in their restaurant where you’ll enjoy delicious flavours and be able to elaborate your own cider.
Mooma is one best stopovers included in the España Discovery guide that has much to offer to Europe’s most adventurous tourists. If you’re looking to live an experience far from conventional mass tourism and closer to the rural heart of Spain, where you can find both traditions and invaluable gastronomic secrets, then you must head towards the woodland province of Girona. Did you know that Mooma produced the very first Catalan Cider?
With over 20 hectares that in 1962 were planted the first apple trees under the orders of Llorenç Vidal, this finca collects all the elements that modern agrotourism requires. It is organized by the third generation of the Vidal family, who have dedicated themselves to the cultivation of this fruit using sustainable methods to give birth to healthy products of incomparable quality. Apples are a very versatile nutritive food, rich in vitamins, minerals and antioxidants. Helps strengthen your autoimmune system, helps care for gum and tooth health, and helps the digestion, among other benefits.
For its part, the warm restaurant of Mooma offers its visitors a very varied menu, open faced sandwiches, salads, roasted meat, paella, cake, apple dessert and more. It also offers vegetarian, vegan and celiac options.

You can also park at their facilities for up to 24 hours. Don’t forget to bring your España Discovery Guide and show it upon arrival — it’s your ID!
