Stone Farmhouse with Private Courtyard in Qawra

Welcome to Ta` Giardinetta — a converted stone farmhouse in Qawra, built for two. ✨

Exposed limestone walls, heavy timber beams and red shuttered windows meet a sleek modern kitchen and a double-height living room, with the bedroom set on a mezzanine behind frameless glass. 🏡

Outside is your own paved courtyard, screened by potted greenery — coffee in the morning, quiet in the evening.🌅

A farmhouse like this rarely stays free for long in St Paul`s Bay. Book instantly and it`s yours. 📆



🏡 Welcome to Ta` Giardinetta
Push open the red timber door and Qawra goes quiet behind you. Inside is a real Maltese farmhouse, converted with a light touch — 180 m² of exposed limestone, heavy timber beams and red shuttered windows, kept for just two guests. Every room has been finished with care, and nothing here feels like a rental. Here`s what`s waiting for you inside.

🛋️ Living Area
A double-height room built around the original stone, with a deep sofa facing a wall-mounted Smart TV set into a limestone recess. Air conditioning, a crystal chandelier in the void above, and an open timber-and-steel staircase behind frameless glass.

🍳 Kitchen & Dining
A glossy, handleless kitchen with dark granite worktops set against a raw stone splashback — five-burner gas hob, built-in electric oven, American-style fridge freezer with water dispenser, microwave, Dolce Gusto coffee machine, kettle and toaster. Filtered drinking water on tap. The dining table seats four under a wicker pendant.

🛏️ Mezzanine Bedroom
Up the staircase, a double bed sits on wood-plank flooring under a beam-and-stone ceiling, open to the living space below behind a glass balustrade. Reading lights either side, a full-width sliding wardrobe, and its own air conditioning.

🚿 Bathrooms
The main bathroom is finished floor to ceiling in marble-effect porcelain, with a walk-in shower, oak vanity and a soft-edged backlit mirror. A second WC keeps mornings simple.

🌿 Private Courtyard
Your own paved courtyard at the front, with a cast-iron table and chairs for four, a bench in the shade, mature potted plants and wall lanterns for the evening. Fully walled and completely yours.

🧺 Laundry
A washing machine and tumble dryer in the yard shed, plus drying rack, iron and ironing board — easy for longer stays.

✨ Extra Amenities
• Free WiFi throughout
• Air conditioning in the bedroom and living area
• Smart TV with IPTV
• Hairdryer
• Full cookware, crockery and glassware for four
• Filtered drinking water
• Street parking directly outside

Old stone, modern comfort, and a courtyard that`s yours alone — a farmhouse stay for two in the middle of Qawra.

🏝️ Welcome to Qawra
You`ve landed on Malta`s north coast, in St Paul`s Bay — a compact seaside town built around its own small headland, with a promenade running the whole way round it. It`s an easy-going, walkable part of the island: swimming spots and cafés in every direction, a bus network that reaches everywhere, and a sunset that lands right in front of you. Here`s what`s around you.

🌊 The Seafront
Qawra`s promenade wraps the point and runs on into Buġibba, past lidos, rocky swimming platforms and open-air cafés. It`s the town`s living room — busy in the evening, quiet at sunrise.

🐠 Malta National Aquarium
Qawra`s Mediterranean aquarium sits right on the seafront, with a café terrace over the water. An easy afternoon if the weather turns.

🍽️ Eating & Everyday Life
Buġibba Square and the streets around it hold the bulk of the area`s restaurants, bars, bakeries and supermarkets — everything from pastizzi to proper seafood, and grocery shopping without a car.

🌅 Salina Bay
Just around the bay, Salina`s historic salt pans and quiet nature park make for a flat, easy coastal walk away from the crowds.

⛵ Beaches Nearby
Golden Bay, Għajn Tuffieħa and Mellieħa Bay — Malta`s best sandy beaches — are all on this side of the island, an easy drive or bus ride north.

Qawra puts the sea, the restaurants and the bus network within reach on foot, and the rest of Malta within easy reach of the door.


🗺️ Welcome — getting around is the easy part
Qawra is one of the best-connected spots on the island, and you genuinely don`t need a car here. Buses, seasonal ferries and ride-hailing apps all start within the town, so a day in Valletta, an afternoon at Golden Bay or a late dinner in St Julian`s takes no planning at all. Here are your options.

🚌 Bus
Buġibba`s bus terminus is the main interchange for the north of Malta, with frequent direct routes to Valletta, Sliema, St Julian`s, Mdina and the northern beaches. Stops are dotted all along the Qawra seafront.

⛴️ Ferry
Seasonal ferries run from Buġibba across to Valletta, Sliema and Comino — the fastest and by far the prettiest way to reach the capital or the Blue Lagoon.

🚕 Taxis & Ride-Hailing
Bolt, eCabs and Uber all cover Qawra, with pickups usually within a few minutes. Handy for late dinners in St Julian`s or an early airport run.

🚗 Parking
Street parking directly outside the farmhouse if you`re driving.

Between the buses, the ferries and a ride-hailing app, exploring Malta from Qawra is genuinely effortless.
