Where to Go

All amenities are in walking distance. A daily grocery store is situated just a few meters down from the farmhouse while the main square (village centre) is 5 minutes away by walk. Here one can find a large selection of cafes and restaurants, a bank and other amenities.

There are also plenty of walking opportunities which take you to some breathtaking sites and historical places. For example, one can easily take a short walk to 'Calypso Cave' - the cave referred to by Homer in "The Odyssey". From here one can also enjoy a breath taking view of the picturesque Ramla l-Ħamra Bay.

Moreover Ramla Bay is three minutes away by car or 15 minutes by walk. A direct bus service is also available. The beach is quite wide and sandy. It is a particularly golden-reddish sand which makes this beach different from all other beaches in Gozo and Malta. Locals often refer to this beach as the "Ramla il-Hamra" - the Red Sandy Beach.

Finally one can also visit the Ggantija Temples - one of the most important archaeological sites in Malta. Ggantija originate from 3600 B.C - long before the pyramids were built! The gigantic dimensions of the megaliths have always struck a chord with popular imagination. In centuries past, some locals even believed that the Islands’ temples, in particular those of Ggantija, were the work of giants. Ggantija Temples are situated just a few minutes away from Xaghra main square.

The farmhouse is practically 5 minutes by car from any location in Gozo including the city of Victoria, the Citadel, the Azure window, Marsalforn and other must-see locations. The nearby bus stop stage (located just 10 meters away around the corner!) has direct route service to Victoria, Marsalforn, Ramla Bay and Mgarr Harbour.
