Location details
Saliente Alto
Nestled in the foothills below the Virgen del Saliente Monastery in northern Almeria lies Carpe Diem comprising three cortijos with variable accommodation. Surrounded by mountains and almond trees it gives the visitor a taste of the real Spain in this beautiful part of Andalucia.
Carpe Diem is well situated for trips to the beaches of Mojácar, Garrucha and elsewhere (approximately 40 minutes away) or to the beautiful lakes at Baza - only an hour away. Also within easy driving distance is the famous city of Granada (one and a half hours) and the ski slopes of the Sierras Nevada. And at the end of the day you return to the calm and tranquility of our beautiful rural location, away from the hustle and bustle of these tourist attractions.
There is excellent shopping in Chirivel and in Albox, only a short distance away which has a well-stocked British supermarket and a weekly traditional market on Tuesdays.
