Costa Almeria, Spain, Lee Juggurnauth

Lee Juggurnauth is coming to the help of John and Karly, who live in Leicestershire and have been together for 17 years. They’ve decided to take a leap and follow their dream of buying a holiday home on Spain’s Costa Almeria that works for them plus John’s four children and eight grandchildren! They have a budget of £90,000 and Lee has some great options up his sleeve – but can he deliver the dream?

About the area

To get to the Costa Almeria in the south of Spain you fly to Almeria airport which takes about 3 hours from the UK – then it’s around an hour’s drive to the areas we’ll be looking in. The Costa Almeria has more than 130 miles of stunning coastline and a number of beautiful and historic towns, the most famous being the popular and lively resort of Mojacar. It’s one of Spain’s most fertile agricultural regions, and on the subject of food, a number of Clint Eastwood Spaghetti westerns have been filmed here over the years – and that landscape attracts hikers, cyclists and lovers of the outdoor lifestyle.
