Gwann View can be found in the most unique of settings, part of what was once the eighteenth-century Fort Chambray, overlooking Mgarr harbour, on the south coast of the Maltese island of Gozo. The villa enjoys stunning sea views towards the harbour, and beyond to the horizon of the azure blue waters of the Mediterranean Sea. There is no international airport on the island, guests are advised to fly to Malta, take transportation to the northern port, and then hop on the frequent ferry to Mgarr Harbour in Gozo. From Mgarr Harbour it is a short two-kilometre journey to your holiday home.

The island of Gozo is only seven kilometres long, and just over thirteen kilometres wide, so anywhere you want to go is within easy reach. For your holiday provisions, the nearest shops and restaurants are only five hundred metres from the villa. The concierge team can arrange complimentary delivery of your grocery order, and a private chef if you don’t fancy cooking.

The nearest Gorgun beach is within walking distance, whilst the beautiful beach of San Blas, the red sands of Ramla, and the white sands of  Iz-Zewwieqa Bay, are all nearby. Mgarr Harbour is a quaint traditional fishing village, where you can take a walk along the promenade, admire the yachts, and feast on the local cuisine. Take time to visit the impressive gothic Lourdes Chapel and the sculpture of the Three Graces, before enjoying a cocktail in the famous Gleneagles Bar. Slightly further afield is Hondoqir-Rummi for snorkelling, Dwerja Bay for scuba diving, Mgaar Ix-Xin for rock climbing, or Ghasni Beach for seclusion.

The island of Gozo dates to neolithic times, it has been invaded and occupied by the Phoenicians, Romans, Arabs, Sicilians, the French and finally the British, this melting pot of cultures can be seen in its history, architecture, and culture. Start your historical education with the Ggantija Temples, one of the world’s oldest free-standing structures, and now a UNESCO and World Heritage Site. Only six kilometres from the villa is the capital city, Ir-Rabat, known locally as Victoria since 1887, renamed in honour of Queen Victoria to celebrate her jubilee. Walk the fortified Bronze Age citadel of the city, stop in Independence Square for a browse in the local market, and a coffee in a café,  Seek solace in the seventeenth-century Baroque Grand Basilica of St George, before wandering the old streets full of shops selling delicacies and souvenirs.

The city is also known for its collection of museums, theatres, clubs, and opera houses. Find peace and tranquillity with a stroll around Villa Rundle Public Gardens, established by the British in 1910. Finally, don’t miss a day out on the nearby island of Comino, take the ferry from Mgaar harbour, swim and snorkel in the beautiful blue lagoon, before exploring the island’s natural habitat, numerous churches, and dining by the sea shore on freshly caught fish.
