We really enjoyed our stay here. The property is spacious, clean and comfortable, the views are incredible, the location is perfect as it overlooks a quiet agricultural valley but its only a 15 minute walk into vibrant Victoria.I would describe the style and amenities as rustic and comfortable.

The host was extremely helpful in providing directions when our flight was delayed and we unfortunately arrived late- she had even left some groceries for us which was kind. The house and pool are in a beautiful setting and quite central- so nowhere is further than about 15 mins by car. We loved the pool, view and size of the rooms. Wish I’d read the small print closely, because we didn’t know the aircon was on a coin meter until we got there (fair enough). There was a huge fridge and very basic kitchen. The gas stove (extremely old) leaked gas so we turned it off at the bottle. The floors and bathrooms were not too clean but it’s a rustic setting and we had a great week there.

Trip to Gozo

We stayed at this lovely farmhouse for a week - myself, my wife and three year old, and my parents. It had everything we needed for a relaxing family holiday - and the private outdoor pool was perfect for cooling off in the hot weather. Our daughter barely got out all week and loved seeing the lizards sunning themselves along the edges.Gozo itself is lovely and we were lucky to hear some of the festivities happening around the island. Our host Maria was really communicative and when we had a brief power cut came over with torches and candles (which, fortunately, we didn't have to use as the power came back shortly afterwards).Parking on the street was absolutely fine and we never had trouble finding a spot that far away. Maria suggested we avoid the steep hill up Fontana, which we did to our rental car's great relief. A note to anyone using Google Maps as a Sat Nab - don't go down Triq Petri like Google suggests. It's not a passable road (though it's a pleasant walk into Victoria for food).We particularly enjoyed sitting on the balcony in the evenings, watching the sun go down and listening to the many church bells and the booming cannon and fireworks that were part of the local feast days.All in all, a wonderful stay and a lovely place to have it.

Fabulous farmhouse

The outside space was perfect for family of 5. The children spent a lot of time in the pool, despite it not being heated. We loved the scenic view from the terrace and balcony. The supermarket, bakery, pharmacy and bar in town made it easy to stay local if we didn't want to drive. Victoria is also walkable for a change of scene.

We loved the farmhouse, the area was beautiful and central, breezy and cool. The pool was wonderful and when we werent eating out, we cooked some lovely meals and ate them on the terrace overlooking the valley. This is a lovely and relaxed place to say and we'd highly recommend!!! Any questions we had were quickly answered by our lovely host who was just up the road.

Very nice, quiet location, easy access to Victoria.

We had a great week here. The villa is in a very quiet and peaceful location but also only about 20 min walk from the centre of Victoria. The host Maria is very nice and was available if needed but we didn’t need to call her as we had everything needed. The pool was great, the view is lovely and the property is spacious. All in all we found it met our needs very well. Thank you!

Lovely stay

Beautiful house with an amazing view. The house had a modern middle ages vibe. Comfortable beds and spacious rooms. There are a few small things that could use an upgrade. A bit of new kitchenware and a bit more pressure in the showers can do the trick. But other than that a very characteristic place to stay and a very helpful and thoughtful host.

Lovely villa, great location

Had to find last minute alternative accommodation due to building work at original booking. This did not disappoint at all. Great location, only 15 to 20 mins walk to Ir-Rabat/Victoria. Pool was great and a good sized property. Maria was very helpful, quick and easy communication.

Very nice as always

We've stayed here (two adults, two kids 9 & 6) before but this time we also had my Mother, Father and Sister-in-law with us who were comfortably accommodated. Maria is local so was able to accommodate a later check-in due to already inconvenient and additionally delayed flight times. She also organised an airport shuttle for my in-laws whose return flights were much later so they didn't have to get up early. As well as generally looking after us very well. Almost certainly some, or all, of us will be back next June. See you then, Maria.

Pleasant accommodation

Nice house with plenty of character. It would have been nice to have been informed that there is a requirement to pay tax of 50c per person/per night. The swimming pool was adequate, the size of pool should have been listed. Previous reviews are misleading and that a car is required to visit the beach-45min bus journey otherwise.

Beautiful farmouse in Kerçum

Lovely welcoming host happy to help with planning trips out. Kerçum has a nice, small local pub which does very reasonable meals and an amazing bakery ... David's bakery. The propery is 20 minute walk from the centre of Victoria down and up the small valley the property looks across. We came back feeling our batteries had been completely re-charged. I forgot to take home a piece of jewellery and Marie went out of her way to find it and post it to me by special delivery. It was back with me within 4 days. Great service from a lovely hostess. Thank you.

A memorable week

We had a great time on our stay in Kercem. The location is great to reach all of the island easily. We hired a car, which we were glad of, as we visited during a heatwave, but had it been a bit cooler, Victoria would have been a fairly easy stroll. The pool was a very welcome addition and got lots of use. The air con worked in all rooms with a coin operated system. Good size fridge and kitchen area, however we did find that more plastic cups for use by the pool would be appreciated. The shower by the outside pool got a lot of use with us, as it had good water pressure and was a nice temperature! Maria was a very welcoming host, easily contactable and on hand if needed. Thank you for the perfect home for a wonderful week spent snorkelling and exploring the beautiful island of Gozo!

Love this House

We had a fantastic 2 weeks family holiday at the Farmhouse and Maria was on hand when needed and prepared a nice welcome pack for us on arrival. There was a good cleaning service half way through and the pool was cleaned too. The pool itself was very nice with a good deep end (2m) and a shallow end for less confident swimmers. The property is exactly as advertised with coin operated A/C - allow about 4-6 Euro a night to keep all bedrooms cool during the very hot times. The WIFI is excellent and the TV has lots of good apps and channels if you or the kids want them. The village itself is very nice and quiet with a good restaurant and mini market round the corner (5-minute walk) and Victoria is only 20 minutes away and has great options to eat in St George's square. We liked the Grapes Wine Bistro a lot. Xlendi is a fantastic beach resort and only 5 minutes by car if you have one. If you do have a car don't always believe the Sat Nav/Google Maps as it may direct you down some streets that are clearly not fit for vehicles. Overall, we loved the property and its location and would love to come back one day

Dirty a

This farmhouse has the potential to be a lovely holiday home but unfortunately it was very dirty and dusty when we arrived. The bedroom floors looked like they had not been properly scrubbed and mopped for a long time. Stairs had not been mopped. There were clumps of dust hanging from the ceilings and walls, bird's nesting in the air vents of the walls. The bathroom tiles were filthy dirty, greasy and full of grime with previous guest's hair left around the bath. The bathrooms are also very old and looking quite tired. We did not feel comfortable using the bathrooms. After 2 days I found old chewing gum stuck under one of the bedroom rugs and clumps of dust and hair under the bed. It was clear the house had not been deep cleaned for a long time which is disappointing especially after the pandemic. When I informed the owner with photos she offered to send a maid to clean the house again but by that time we did not feel comfortable staying in the house any longer and we cut short our holiday by 3 nights. When I requested our money back for the remaining nights the owner refused to take responsibility and do the honest thing, even though it was obviously not our fault she had not ensured the house was properly cleaned. Her relative then accused me of putting the chewing gum on the floor myself which I found quite insulting, especially as none of us chew gum. Needless to say we will be staying elsewhere when we visit Gozo.

Rustic Farmhouse

We had an amazing time. Tal Henjja farmhouse has a ton of Gozan charm and had everything thing we wanted for our relaxing vacation. Because the property is east facing it could benefit from more shade blinds or awnings on the eastern windows. It was very difficult to keep the house cool. We had no issues with paying extra for the AC but it was a pain to keep finding euro coins to feed the AC. It would be great if there was some kind of card payment system instead. We only used the AC in the bedrooms at night and it was about 6 euros per night. We are very glad we rented from Mary.

Relaxing and stress free stay.

My wife and I had a wonderful stay here last week. We absolutely loved the property, the photos don't do it justice. The pool area is great for relaxing with a view, and the little balcony off the kitchen is perfect for both breakfast and a drink before bed. The location is spot on too, easily walkable to Victoria. It took us about 15 minutes to get into the centre itself. Quick and easy Uber/Bolt ride to nearby places such as Xlendi too. There's a couple of fair-sized supermarkets in Kercem itself, as well as a pub and a bakery.Our host was helpful and always on hand to help or advise as needed. We'll be recommending it to our friends!
