Great holiday to take in Feb to get away from wet cold UK.

Easy walking with a beautiful coastline, hilltop villages and lots of churches to visit.

The hotel was amazing, with cottage style rooms in the gardens, delicious food and a great Spa & Pool.

The local bus stopped outside and we used the local buses to walk in different parts of the island, so convenient and very good value.

We did all the suggested walks, we saw some beautiful views and the route notes were all excellent.

We’ve just returned from a week in the stunning Ta’Cenc Hotel on the cliffs of the south coast of Gozo, which was a last-minute booking and proved to be an excellent choice.

We had a very comfortable room which opened out onto the poolside, in this well designed single storey complex of rooms and trulli, in its own landscape of limestone and flowers.

While the weather was quite warm and sunny, there was always a breeze (or more) which stopped us using the pools, but there was also a spa with warm in/outdoor pool and all facilities – the perfect end to a day of walking.

The food was superb, with buffet breakfasts and four course dinners, and the service was immaculate.

The holiday is self-guided and we did most of the walks suggested by Exodus, sometimes bumping into other hotel guests on the way; the walk notes we’d been given were so detailed we never got lost.

But we did miss the group activity that are such a feature of the previous Exodus group holidays we’d been on and that people benefit enormously from.

The hotel had a courtesy bus into the main town Victoria, from where local buses went out to all the villages, so we either caught them or walked from the hotel.

The cliff walks were amazing and the flowers a myriad of colours; the views were stunning.

The limestone quarrying and the salt pans fascinated us but we were upset by the evidence everywhere of the shooting of migrating birds.

Being early in the season, some of the villages were sleepy, but there are many fine churches and archaeological sites to visit, as well as the citadel and museums in Victoria.

We liked the folklore museum in Gharb and it was good to hire bikes and explore the villages (though the drivers are crazy!).

It would have been easy to have a day on Malta by bus and ferry but we had no time.

A great holiday.

Ta chenc is a lovely hotel.

Single storey buildings with very spacious room and bathroom.

A fabulous choice of food at breakfast with plenty of choice for dinner.

Staff very friendly and helpful.

Gozo is laid back with a very good public transport system to get you to start walks.
