Dar Ta Censina - by Jules

"Well I wasn’t expecting that. It’s not every Gozo farmhouse that comes with its own altar. It’s even more of a surprise in a modern Gozo holiday home but somehow it works. It’s just one of a number of features (from sandstone arches to wooden beams) that makes a modern home feel very traditional.

Of course, the advantage of this being a modern Gozo farmhouse is that among the antique trappings you get large living spaces and contemporary comfort. It’s an appealing mix.

Censina is one of a cluster of self-catering Gozo farmhouses in tranquil Ghammar. This handful of buildings aside there’s little to disrupt the peace yet you’re never more than a short drive from a great beach restaurant or activity". Jules

Ground floor:

Censina is effectively a mirror image of Lonza next door. The altar aside (which sits dramatically in an anteroom off the living space) the living room kitchen and dining areas are open plan spacious and airy divided only by light stone archways. The farmhouse kitchen opens out to the pool terrace.

First floor:

Inside the front entrance, a large stone staircase leads to the first floor and a feature landing of wrought iron railings and antique tiles.

Bedroom 1 has two single beds. Bedroom 2 has one double bed.

Bedroom 3 and 4 have 2 single beds. All bedrooms have en-suite facilities.

Although newly built, this property has been designed with typical local features. Lime stone walls, wooden beams and arches together with typical patterned floors enhance the character and charm of this property. Antique furnishings together with the inclusion of a beautiful altar in a private living room off the main bedroom make this house really special! No expense has been spared in the creation of this super holiday home. A large fully equipped kitchen/dining and comfortable living area with a wood burning fireplace for the Winter months, lead onto a large pool area with sun loungers and BBQ open valley views right up to the Jordan Lighthouse – a landmark on the island of Gozo are enjoyed from the terraces and pool area of Dar ta’ Censina.

Location

Locale

Ghammar Censina is in Ghammar (pronounced “ammer”) between Zebbug and Ghasri.

In Ghasri the steep walk up Gurden Hill to the lighthouse at its crest is a challenge for anyone who loves a good walk. Wied L Ghasri valley is a pleasant stroll from Ghammar. It’s an ideal spot for country walks and cycling particularly in spring and winter.

The valley leads to the sea and a secluded inlet nestled between high cliffs.

The inlet is popular for swimming snorkelling and diving.

Censina is close to a number of good beaches including Dwerja Bay and the stunning Azure Window lively Marsalforn Bay to the north and Ramla Bay the largest sandy beach on Gozo to the east.
