Sehr gut ausgestattetes Farmhaus mit gemütlicher Atmosphäre

Unser 14tägiger Aufenthalt hat uns sehr gut gefallen! Das Haus hatte mehr als genug Platz für eine fünfköpfige Familie. Die Ausstattung war super, die Küche hatte wirklich alles, was man sich wünscht und Waschmaschine und Geschirrspüler sind auch im Urlaub eine tolle Hilfe 😃. Die Kommunikation mit dem Vermieter war sehr einfach und Richard hat uns sehr viele Informationen zur Verfügung gestellt. Der Pool auf dem Dach war ein besonderes Highlight! Auch wenn man mal "zu Hause" gemütlich abhängen wollte, hatte das Haus viele Ecken, in denen man chillen konnte. Die Aircondition war bei der Hitze und Schwüle gerade nachts super. Insgesamt waren wir sehr zufrieden.

Gozo 2023

The photos don’t do it justice, we felt in reality the property has a great deal more charm and character. The roof top pool is very nicely laid out and a lovely contemporary contrast to the more traditional architecture of the house. It’s very well equipped in terms of the kitchen, games room & living areas.

Great holiday villa!

We really enjoyed our stay in Xaghra. The villa was perfect for our family and you can tell that the owner has invested in the property to make it very comfortable and well equipped. Communication with the owner, Richard and also the property management team in Gozo was easy and any queries were dealt with quickly. The beds were comfy and the air conditioning was very effective at keeping us cool during the heat wave. The property is near to the centre of Xaghra, so supermarkets and restaurants are nearby. We also loved the rooftop pool, which was quite spectacular!

charmantes historisches Bauernhaus

Wir haben uns sehr wohlgefühlt im nett eingerichteten Haus, morgens und abends im gemütlich und begrünten Innenhof gegessen. Der Pool auf dem Dach war das Highlight, der Blick reicht über Xaghra hinaus bis zum Meer. Wenn es überhaupt etwas zu bemängeln gab, dann waren es die Ameisen, vielleicht waren wir aber zu sorglos mit Obst...

Lovely house in great location

We had a wonderful week in Richard’s house in Xaghra. It is so full of character and well modernised with a wonderful pool on the roof. Walking in from the street is like entering a secret garden. The door opens into a completely private courtyard with a fountain, welcome shade and a table and chairs where we ate all our meals. The house has everything you could need and made the perfect base from which to explore Gozo, providing a lovely welcoming sanctuary on our return from a day out. Richard was a great host - very communicative and extremely helpful laying out the house rules, describing amenities in the local area and he allowed us a late checkout which was very gracious. All in all a memorable holiday and a highly recommended property.

About the host

Hosted by Richard

This is a family owned property and used by the family for long holidays and let out for a few months only. It is decorated and furnished as a much loved private family holiday home rather than a bare letting house.

Why they chose this property

This is a somewhat quirky property built entirely of solid local limestone and parts of it are of considerable antiquity. There is a newly built roof terrace with the well maintained 7 metre pool and sunbathing and seating areas. There is a cheerful bar/games room in the basement with a football table. The village square is a short (8 min)walk away and has cafes and restaurants and an imposing church.

What makes this property unique

Secluded attractive well planted courtyard garden with antique fountain. Long dining table and director chairs under a large umbrella.
The property is well located in terms of closeness to the island''s main beach at Ramla Bay (5 mins drive). It is also close the the harbour at Mgarr with some good restaurants and views and with swift access to and from the ferry.. It is 5 minutes drive from the capital, Victoria, with its imposing and ancient Citadella and the quaint narrow streets of the Old Town.
The historic and important Gigantija temples ( older than the pyramids!) are just a seven minute walk away.
