Farmhouse Anna

Farmhouse Anna sits on the island of Gozo like its own fortress, with stone walls rising out of the earth and elegant lighting adding highlights to the openings, bringing a charm and romance to the property. Located in the most tranquil part of Gharb, known as Birbuba, the whole area feels serene and relaxing, perfect for those looking to escape busy day to day lives and spend quality time with friends and family. Newly converted, the entire farmhouse has been designed for your comfort, built over three floors, with an authentic, laid-back feel inside and spacious outdoor living areas on the terrace. From the moment you arrive the property is bursting with character, with all the original features still prominent, whilst the modern additions create a care-free ambience for your stay, with everything you need for a luxurious holiday away. On the ground floor, the rooms are designed to overlook a peaceful courtyard, which in turn leads to the pool area, barbecue and garden. With meter-thick walls, even the largest rooms feel intimate and cosy, staying cool in the summer and warm in the winter, so you can visit all year round. There is a modern kitchen which is truly a joy to cook in, gazing out at the courtyard, whilst the sunlight streams in, highlighting every nook and cranny found across the dramatic arched ceiling. From here, you can wander through into the old mill room, an expansive space that has been converted into a spacious, open-plan living and dining area. A guest bathroom is also located on this level. Stepping up onto the first floor, you will find three bedrooms, including two doubles and one single, all with their own private bathroom. The top floor is being refurbished and will include a double bedroom, a single bedroom and a final large shower room by the beginning of 2020 season. In each of the rooms, the furnishings are simple and relaxed, leaving the grandeur and elegance of the pre-existing architecture to do all the talking! Outside, the terrace shoots out in front of the farmhouse, with space to dine under the sun and stars, room to relax on a sun lounger and of course the large private swimming pool. The deck area and garden enjoy the sun from sunrise all the way through into the late afternoon in summer, so you can stay out all day, soaking in the sunshine and letting any worries melt away!
