Gharb House | Enchanting converted farmhouse with private pool and mature garden with seaviews

4 Bedroom House in Gharb, L-Gharb

This beautiful charming 400 year old converted farmhouse is situated in one of the oldest villages in Gozo close to the capital of Victoria (1km). The house is perfectly positioned on the edge of the village but still close to the village core and overlooks a landscape of fields past San Dimitri chapel, towards the lighthouse and on to the Mediterranean sea. On a clear day you can see Sicily in the distance....
Step inside to a peaceful relaxing haven away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life and enjoy the relaxing and social areas of the house and garden. It is perfect both for groups and couples alike.
The property has been in the family for over 30 years. Originally converted in the 70's by the head designer of Dartington Glass, the present owner and her family have taken great care to restore the house over the years by retaining its original simplicity and rustic charm while adding the modern conveniences. This year we have invested further in the property to make it more comfortable still with aircons in each bedroom, new bathroom, pool overhaul and other new modcons including barbecue. If you like the contemporary, it is not for you, rather it offers a simplicity retaining the old floor tiles and flagstones and stone walls while still offering all the mods and cons. It offers an authentic comfortable Gozo experience including the crickets in the palm trees, lizards in the garden, dragonflies around the pool and beautiful plants around the house.
The house itself is only a 5 minute walk to the food stores and restaurants and if feeling particularly lazy the bread man, veg man, fish man and drinks man visit the square in their vans.
The house enjoys a beautiful swimming pool designed by present owner and inspired by her travels to Thailand. The mature garden provides a perfect natural umbrella with its mature palm trees allowing for a respite from the sun and lovely entertainment space with a large old cable table seating 12 guests and another Indian marble table seating 6 and a barbecue.
For safety reasons the pool area is cordoned off very tastefully and practically with a wooden fence that runs along one side of the pool area making it safe for children and a blessing for parents who can relax while eating their lunch in the garden and not having to look up every minute to check on the children.
There is a housekeeper, pool man and gardener who look after the house. The housekeeper can also provide additional cleaning during your holiday and there is also babysitting if required.
The owner is English/Maltese and is happy to advise on any additional holiday requirements. She writes a local restaurant guide - The Definitive(ly) Good Guide to Restaurants in Malta & Gozo -www.restaurantsmalta.com and the Malta Baby & Kids Directory - www.maltababyandkids.com and organises local Artisan Markets on the islands - www.maltaartisanmarkets.com and so is the perfect person to ask advise on dining out and anything to do with children in Malta and Gozo or arts and crafts and also is the curator of Offbeat Malta Food Trails www.offbeatmaltafoodtrails.com an exclusive private history of Malta food tour of Valletta.
This unique house has been featured in two design magazines.

Summary: Our stay at this farmhouse in Gozo was truly a memorable experience. While the property showed signs of age and had a few areas that needed attention, the overall charm and energy of the place captivated us. The gardens, in particular, felt like an oasis, providing a serene space where my family and I could come together. If you are seeking luxury, this may not be the right choice for you. However, if you are looking to create lasting memories in a magical setting, this farmhouse is perfect. The owner, Lisa, was incredibly accommodating and responsive to any issues that arose, ensuring our stay was as comfortable as possible. We absolutely loved our time here and would recommend it to anyone looking for a unique and enchanting experience in Gozo.

Summary: Our stay in the house was late June 2018 (late post due to review section not being available on Home Away). 6 of us stayed in the property, arriving from UK & Italy. The house is wonderful, very comfortable & in a quiet location. Kitchen had everything we needed & dining area was excellent. Bedrooms were comfortable. Bathrooms were clean and tidy - only issue for the entire trip was that hot water appears only solar powered - if it runs out in evening, doesn't heat up until the sun is out (this was not enough of a problem to impact our stay). Outdoor areas were the most impressive feature, the pool & surrounds are brilliant. The outdoor dining space is fantastic. There is a great balance between sun and shade. The house was big enough to allow time away from the other people if needed, but great for entertaining. The location was great; a short stroll into Gharb & a 5 minute drive into Victoria & 20mins from ferry. Would recommend the house for both friends to get away & families. Thanks Lisa, Regards Jason

Summary: Nice house; the kids loved the many corners, stairs, roofs, and "hidden rooms”; a bit of sea view from the pool, and the area is very quiet. The pool is great and the garden has some very beautiful plants. The owner and also the housekeeper are very friendly and helpful and the contact was very kind and uncomplicated. That said, the most decisivemoments are probably found in the history of the house: The garden and parts of the house were a bit untidy and moisty. The situation is maybe different in summer when there is less rain and humidity.

Summary: We had a great time in Gozo. really quiet (but 4 bars / restaurants within walking distance) and only a 5 minute drive to San Lawrenz and the Azure window with crystal clear diving - and not busy! Very deceptive. Gharb is very quiet, hardly any tourists. The farm house is fabulous. Its 400 years old and has not been modernized to distraction. Maybe not to an american's 5 star luxury level, but remained true to its Gozo / Malta heritage with a fitted kitchen, more bath rooms than you can count and the usual mod con's while still retaining that rustic, old farm house charm. The house is deceptive when you arrive, but opens out into a very large sprawling selection of rooms surrounding an open courtyard. We went at the end of October so the unheated pool was certainly character building. Its very deep which meant it might be a quite cool at the end of the season. Refreshing when your in tho' One thing you can't get from the website pictures, if you stand next to the palm tree in the picture of the pool, and look straight ahead you are looking out over farm land to the sea. Really great views all around the property. If you need to see the sea from the pool area or the balcony as part of your holiday, you can from this one. We would definitely recommend this property. Just be aware that the pool is very cool in the autumn. Lisa the owner is very friendly more than willing to answer any questions we had and is a local herself (not someone living abroad).

Summary: Romantic inner courtyard with white against blue skies, flowering vines, colourful glass tiles. Flagstone paved farmhouse courtyard inviting you outside for breakfast. The children's laughter lingers around the crystal clear saltwater pool. Evening drinks by the pool or overlooking flashing lighthouse and rustic rural scenes in the changing hues of sunset. A white stone staircase inviting you to rest in the cool secluded bedrooms. Master bedroom has you sleeping under wide stone arches with gentle breezes wafting the generous expanses of space. There is a private balcony with outdoor shower overlooking the sea and capturing the many bird calls of Gozo. We wish we had more time to stay longer.

Summary: This is delightful house that was the perfect getaway for our family. There were 6 of us and we thought we might get on top of each other but there was so much space that that never happened. The house is conducive to maximum chill out. This could be by the pool or living room. The house is tasteful in decor throughout and has every amenity one could wish for. We had a wonderful time and would recommend it to anyone wanting a break.

Summary: As soon as we walked in we knew we had made the right decision. A real life Mamma Mia house; blue doors, white washed walls, beautiful tiled courtyard, amazing outside area and pool (very deep). The bedrooms all had floor standing fans as they are very hot at night. The master bedroom is massive and a lot cooler than the other bedrooms. The lounge is beautiful with an area to lie down and rest in the middle which is the size of a double bed. The house has a utility room with washing machine upstairs and clothes line. There are great views from the roof. The kitchen has everything you need with a large gas stove, microwave, 2 fridges and dishwasher. The garden has a gas bbq and lots of seating. Each night we put the pool lights on and sat outside and enjoyed the heat and peace and quiet. Lidl and Waitrose are only a few minutes’ drive away in Victoria. You pass both on the way to Gharb. We took the owners good restaurant guide book out in the car with us each day and found some amazing restaurants around the Island. As the Island is only 8/9 miles long it didn't take long to get around and the driving was very easy and safe. We were looking for a quiet retreat to R&R and we got just that. We will definitely be returning.
