Situation
The castle is on the rural south side of Malta, in what was traditionally a farming village. It is half a mile from the lively market town of Zurrieq and easily accessible from the airport.

Built for the Knights of Malta, the castle has been a Crusaders' fortress and a brothel during its long and diverse history. Since 1969, it has been an idyllic family retreat, providing refuge from our long English winters.

Facilities
The castle has nine bedrooms, three of them in the turrets, and sleeps fourteen comfortably. The large fully-equiped kitchen, two bathrooms and a shower room provide all the luxuries of modern living. There is a vaulted dining room, a spacious sitting room and a more formal dining area in the magnificent entrance hall.

Three anterooms branch off the hall including a television and video room with English speaking cable installed. There is a large butler's pantry and a washroom with washing machine and drying racks: these rooms lead into the kitchen. As well as having all the usual facilities including a dishwasher, this large single storey offshoot has an entire wall of glass sliding doors opening onto a terrace where most meals are eaten 'al fresco' round the large wooden table.
