A few weeks ago, Tom and his work friends/partners went for a couple of fun weekend holidays to Malta’s Gozo Island.

Gozo is an island in the Mediterranean Sea, one of 21 that make up the Maltese archipelago. Inhabited for thousands of years, it shows evidence of historic immigration and rule by the Phoenicians, Romans, Arabs, Sicilians, French and British, among others. It’s known for its Neolithic Ġgantija Temple ruins, rural hiking paths, beaches and scuba-diving sites.

We dined at several truly fantastic establishments. It was a 9-bedroom farmhouse where we stayed. There was something quite magical about the setting.

Here are some suggestions about how to spend your time on Gozo.
