The Burrow is a charming, old (very old) Maltese house - around 400 years old, with lots of period ornaments that give it real character. The original house even had a well - from when it was built (although currently not used).

The location is 5-10 minute walk from the Tarxien temple and a short drive from the airport and also Valhetta and other tourist sites.

Included is breakfast which was excellent (and the homemade marmalade was superb).

We'd spent a week in Malta at a hotel - and this was our last night. The Burrow was MUCH better than our hotel - in both charm, character and comfort. (The bed gave us a really good night's sleep - unlike the much less comfortable hotel beds).

Tarxien is an old Maltese town - completely non-touristy. That's a drawback if all you want is pizza and fish and chips (available near that hotel). It's great if you want something authentic - and why travel to Malta if you just want what you can get anywhere.

Chiara and her son were perfect hosts and Chiara was knowledgeable about the area (and her partner is an official guide - so could show you the real Malta too - although as we were leaving, we didn't need this).
