We arrived early at the property and Matthew was there adding the final touches for our stay. He was happy for us to check-in while he continued with his tasks. There were some basic supplies to get us started and also other kitchen staples we could use if we needed, which was a pleasant added bonus. The property was clean and provided almost everything we needed, even tissues which have not been included
in other properties we’ve stayed in. The property was in the village of Ix-Xewkija, just a short walk to the village centre and local parish church. The old part of the house contains the kitchen, dining and living areas. Up the outside stairs are two bedrooms and access to the roof where there is an alfresco area with lounges for lazing about. The other bedroom is at ground level. We didn’t use the pool due to the cold weather. There is a bus stop across the street for the five minute ride to Victoria. Gozo is a small island and you can see so much in a short time if you have a car as we did. Allow more time for the museums, the Citadel and walking tracks. We spent 5 days here and still didn’t see it all. There is so much history and archeological sites it would be a shame to miss them. And make sure you try the pastizzi.
