This was a great place to stay. The house is spacious and clean and has been beautifully restored and furnished, with clean lines giving it an air of tranquillity. There are three outdoor spaces, with the courtyard next to the kitchen very handy for breakfast.

The house is close to the sea, near a small sandy beach and benches along the sea front to admire the view. There are several bars and restaurants in walking distance - we particularly liked the 1930s Carpentry Wine Bar which is a unique place with great food and drinks. The location is generally quiet, which we preferred to the busier resorts. The school opposite gets noisy at 8am though, so don't bank on a lie in in the front bedroom on a school day!

Chris is a great host and very keen to make sure you enjoy your stay. He left us supplies including bread, fruit, tea, coffee, milk, wine and beer. He also recommended places for us to visit including local restaurants and the Bridge Bar in Valletta which was a great venue for open air jazz on a Friday evening.

We'd be happy to recommend this house to anyone visiting Malta.
