Richard was very responsive to all our questions and provided some great info on the area. His house is full of character, it is very old with some modern additions. It's a 30second walk to the waterfront where you get the best views of the grand harbour. Locally there some lovely and great value restaurants along the water front, the opposite side of the harbour has the poshest yachts we saw on the island! If you cross over to them in I would recommend the seafood at La Marina next to the maritime museum! Our first day we went across to the fort here which gave us some great back story to the area and Made exploring a lot of fun. Water taxis across to the capital Valletta are €2pp from the water and you can get dropped right back at the house. It's a great spot to explore the island from.
