I was looking for a quiet holiday with lots of walking in the nature nature and swimming in Maltese beaches. Claire and Matthew's place was perfect for it! This is my 3rd time in Malta and I experienced the island in a totally different way!
First of all, the place is located in a quiet part of the island. I enjoyed the fresh air, the birds singing every morning, and the stars at night. It is a different experience from staying in the city, in a nice way! Also, I could also walked to Ghajn Tuffieha (where you can find amazing beaches and sceneries) from the house through an amazing track that Claire suggested. On your way back, you would pass by Mgarr, which has many nice local restaurants and shops (I recommend United, I went there twice as they have very nice and fresh food and not touristy at all). The bus stops are just opposite the house if you want to go anywhere, either Valletta or the beach or the ferry station, it is right at your door step!
Most importantly, it was a great pleasure to be hosted by Claire and Matthew! I felt like I was staying with friends. They were so friendly and caring and also gave great tips! I also loved the company of Tux the kitten so much, he was the cherry on top of the trip! The place was simple, extremely clean and comfortable. In general, it was perfect.
I just got home and am already missing my holidays, thanks a lot to the excellent hospitality of Claire, Matthew and Tux! I would definitely come back and recommend it to everyone!
