In your own time

Sitting within a pretty, unblemished valley, you’ll have plenty of views to drink in if you’re keen to explore. Meander around the landscape, or take a seat and rest on the plush hills. There are quaint nearby farmhouses and even Gozo Stadium on the outskirts! You can really set your own agenda.
