Historic Townhouse in Birgu Center

Hi there,
I'm Jonathan from Malta. I love travel, especially adventure travel, Hiking, Mountain Climbing, anything that can be slightly dangerous :)
I love to experience different cultures, arts (including Martial arts) and music from all around the world.

In one of the oldest streets of Birgu is this small house dating back over 500 years. It features a water well which was hand carved into the stone and also a very fun cave-like bedroom. Legend has it that this space was used as a chapel but in most recent years it has housed several poker-games for the villagers of Birgu.

The area which was used as a chapel has a hand carved arch making this house a true masterpiece of the era of the knights of St.John - if only the walls could talk!

The space

The house features 2 bedrooms - one double room which is set in a very cosy cave like semi-basement, and a kids room with bunk beds. The space can also accommodate another 2 people on a very comfortable sofa-bed. A total of 6 guests can enjoy this incredible house. There is also a little kitchen for self catering and a shower which is designed like old Maltese tiles. A new Smart-TV is also available along-side high speed internet.

An AC is available in the main Bedroom, while fans are available all around the house. There is a flight of stairs to access the main bedroom. The stairs are also closed by a gate for safety as it is quite steep.(See pictures).

The house was designed with modern furniture for ultimate comfort while staying in a part of history.

Guest access

You will be able to access the whole house and will also have your own entrance with a classic Maltese door - just like you see on Malta's postcards! :)

Interaction with guests

We will meet you in person to give you the key and to show you the house. Welcome pack will be available upon arrival. By request we can also pick you up at the airport so that you can find the place hassle free! (small fee)
