About this property

300 year old farmhouse fully converted to Very High Standards with Lagoon Pool

Penmon is a charming 300 year old farmhouse located in the tranquil village of Gharb on the west side of the island of Gozo.
The house was renovated with family in mind serving as a getaway from the hectic city life for its current owners. The Pool is a uniquely designed rock formation lagoon type pool with waterfall surrounded by a beautifully landscaped garden.
Penmon has been immaculately converted and beautifully furnished with Indian Hardwood furniture and leather sofas.
The swimming pool, located at the back of the house is a large 33 feet x 22 feet south facing haven, with a spacious charcoal barbecue and sunbathing area, sun loungers plus outside shower facility. And for that complete Mediterranean feeling, an open gazebo overlooks the pool for outside catering, with a stone table with ceramic tiles top.
A Landscaped garden enhances the pool surroundings.

The best ever
This property is welcoming from the minute you walk in the front door. We have stayed in many, many VRBO’s but this one is perfect. The house is perfectly clean and well equipped with everything you will need. It’s very spacious with wide hallways and tall ceilings, and so many spaces to spread out and enjoy. It’s extremely quiet in the neighborhood. The farmhouse is so centrally located it’s literally 8 to 15 minutes to everywhere. We stayed on Malta for 3 nights before coming here but really wish we had spent our full week here. The island of Gozo was much more our style. There are two lovely family run restaurants within 5 minutes walking distance of the house. Lidia and Mark responded quickly to any and all questions we had and were both wonderful to deal with, even thoug poor lidia had to wait 2 extra hours for us because of a small miscommunication on our part. I think you get the idea that I just can’t say enough about Penmon farmhouse and would absolutely recommend it.
