Wardija, is a small farming area situated on a hill overlooking St Paul's Bay with a community of about 100, with lovely homes built within their own grounds. The main house, Dar ta L-Argentier, where the owners live, was built over 100 years ago when it was probably used as a shooting lodge. In the grounds of this lovely property, is 'The Cottage' which is available for self-catering holidays.

The Cottage is situated in the peaceful garden surroundings with a large fresh water swimming pool and sunbathing area. . All facilities are available for paying guest only, due to insurance restrictions. The pool is also used by the owners

The Cottage is 4km away from St Paul's Bay and the beaches of Golden Bay, Ghajn Tuffieha and Gnejna are only a 10 minute drive. A car is essential as the local bus service has been discontinued. A LILD supermarket and regular bus service to Valletta / North of North of Malta, are located about 4km down the Wardija hill .

    Jen and Jo, our hosts went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. Such a beautiful property if you are looking to get away from it all. The property has everything you need and more.A little piece of heaven.

    Jenifer and Joe have provided a lovely oasis of calm on what can be a busy island. This is a great place to get away from it all, with a lovely pool. Yes, it is shared with the owners, but we didn't find this an issue as there are plenty of hours in the day for using it. The house is in the garden of the owners, with more greenery than most other places on the island, so you will come across Joe taking care of it, and we enjoyed some nice evenings with both of them sharing a glass of wine on the terrace outside the apartment. You will need a car for staying at this place, but we found hire prices very reasonable, booked in advance and picked up at the airport. The roads in Malta can be busy, so allow more time for reaching places, but it is rewarding. The house is well located for travel to Mdina, a lovely walled city, and Gozo can be reached easily. You will experience some aircraft noise, as flights out tend to pass near to the property, although nothing like the non-stop activity at a London airport - we could spot the house from the cabin window on our flight out out! In sum, if we were to return to Malta, we would choose this property - but if you want the busyness of urban life or immediate access to a sandy beach, probably not for you (beaches are within a few minutes drive but we preferred the rocky coves for snorkelling)

    The cottage was just right for the two of us, in peaceful surroundings and with the excellent pool right outside. Much better than being in the built up areas. Jennifer and Joe were helpful and generous hosts - very nice people.

    Our stay was lovely, the surroundings, the gardens, the birds song were beautiful and did what we wanted it to do, make us feel relaxed. Unfortunately there were a few issues we felt were important. The first being, the website said we would have to share the pool with the owners, which we had no problem with, but in reality, we had to share with owners’ friends and family a number of times. This had a negative effect on me and my wife, as we felt we didn’t want to intrude, so we were forced to not go outside . We paid a lot of money to have the freedom to have the space. The second problem was that most of the electrical equipment inside the Villa is all dated and needs to be upgraded. Regards Paul and Kath

    We had a lovely stay at Jennifer’s place. The house is located in a rural area away from the beach front area of St Paul’s which was perfect for us. The real plus points of this accommodation are the lovely pool area which we had to ourselves most of the time with our own sunbeds. The bed in the property was extremely comfortable with effective air con in the bedroom. The bathroom is spacious as is the rest of the property. There is a lovely seating area outside where we made use of the BBQ. The location means it’s easily accessible to the whole island though you will need a car. Gorgeous local towns such as Mdina and Rabat and good beaches less than 10 mins away. I would happily stay here again.

    The hosts were very welcoming in every respect, helping wherever they could, often beyond what could be expected. All that one would need on a vacation were in the apartment. We also enjoyed the quiet and the talks at the pool and we hope to return again. Fred and Elfie.
