✨ Escape to Nature in a Restored 300-Year-Old Farmhouse

Discover the magic of Gozo at our charming farmhouse — a peaceful retreat surrounded by nature and close to some of the island’s most stunning beaches. Perfect for those who love tranquility, trekking, and the authentic beauty of the outdoors.

This lovingly restored 300-year-old home blends rustic character with cozy comfort. The interior features a calming color palette and tasteful furnishings that create a relaxing, homely atmosphere.

The space
Your private bedroom is located on the ground floor, in a charming semi-basement level that stays naturally cool in summer. It has two doors — one for entry and another that opens out to let in plenty of natural light and fresh air, creating a bright and comfortable space. You’ll also have your own private bathroom, and access to a shared living area and landing — a perfect spot to unwind with a book or plan your next day’s adventure. For your convenience, there’s a small area with a fridge, kettle, toaster, and a selection of teas and coffees.

Our farmhouse is fully detached and surrounded by nature — a rare find in Gozo. I chose this home because I value peace, quiet, and the soothing sounds of the countryside.

Other things to note
From here, you can reach many beautiful places on foot. With good shoes (and depending on the heat), everything is accessible!

* **Ghajn Barrani Beach** – about a 7-minute trek directly beneath the house
* **Ramla Beach** – around 20 minutes on foot
* **Marsalforn, Ghar Qawla, Qbajjar, and Xwejni** – 20–30 minutes’ walk away, offering easier access and plenty of cafés, restaurants, and bars

The nearby seaside town of **Marsalforn** has everything you might need — from beachside restaurants to lively bars — and is just a pleasant 20-minute walk away. There’s also a nearby bus stop, making it easy to explore the rest of the island.

Please note: reaching some of the beaches involves proper trekking — beautiful, but adventurous paths — which adds to the charm of this nature-rich getaway.

Our home is simple, cozy, and priced accordingly — offering a true Gozo experience for those who love peace, authenticity, and the outdoors.
