Overall idea for a place was good, farmhouse outside looks very nice and the room decoration was different than wvery other places.
I had to leave the property before first night, because the temperature was lower inside of the room than outside (cold april, we was freezing) and the AC wasn't working (only heating option). We also didn't have warm water to take a shower and the owner told us that she will maybe send someone the next day. Room inside was nasty, old spider webs, bird droppings and nails.

Outside of the city, super quiet, rural, with a hippy vibe. The staff, Kristen was helpful and available on whatsapp, wifi was working and the place (we booked The Barn) was charming and comfy. Kitchen equipped enough for cooking. There’s also a great organic and fully vegan-equipped shop nearby.
The ac and a fan could have been more efficient, it was 40 degrees outside (maybe because of it :) also, the shower ran cold water only in the morning and late in the evening. Still, these were minor inconveniences.

The farmhouse is completely renovated and each room seems to have a unique design. Our room was very cool, which in the summer is extremely handy. We had a small kitchenette with all the necessities for making instant coffee and some toast for breakfast. The inner yard has areas for sitting in the shade or the sun. The farmhouse even has a nice organic shop down the street where you can go and buy fruits and vegetables, but also get a coffee or a tea. The white and orange cat was the nicest and most lovable cat I've seen in a long while.
The bathroom is next to the kitchenette and they're separated by a door. That door was broken, so if someone was using the bathroom, the kitchenette was off limits as well.
The water was coming boiling hot during 90% of the left-right motion of the water faucet. It was almost an accident and a surprise to get it lukewarm.
One night there was a big storm with very strong wind. I recommend the owners to come and try to sleep during such a storm. Whatever was on the roof kept hitting something else and was making annoying and loud noises every few seconds.

typical accommodation; spacious; calm; far from the city but still well connected; easy PARKING!!!! (even if on the street but such a miracle in Malta)
nothing really … maybe some details but too much about personal taste to write them down

Very quiet area. Would love to come back when it's warm to enjoy the garden area more.

This was not my first time at Skorba, and the location always stays close to heart. The eco-shop down the road is absolutely convenient and well stocked

Awesome place in the middle of Mgarr countryside, just few minutes drive to the beach.
The room was extra-furnished with a kitchenette with a small fridge and all required to prepare a drink and a quick microwaved meal or some toasted bread (but a bottle-opener was missing!).
Nice bathroom with big shower and good pressure water.
Unfortunately parking is on the road, and the mattress in my room was way too hard for my back, otherwise I would plan to go there every weekend, as it is the ideal get-away from the town chaos!

A wonderful place to stay! Very cozy place with a nice cat, named Asia. Beautiful garden with a great corner fun sunbathing and spendind dome good time.
Down the road is a great organic shop with very good prices and a lot of plant based options. Definetly worth of visit!
Too little kitchenware - we only had one knife, one fork and a spoon. Some of the utendils were broken.First two days we also had an issue with water pressure and hot water, but everything worked out perfectly!

Pretty, spacious room in rural property on quiet road with lovely garden & views. Excellent organic shop close by with high quality produce. We had a delicious dinner at Verbena, a restaurant 10 minutes’ walk away near the church in Zebbiegh and Tasty Corner in Mgarr has wonderful sandwiches, pastries, salads & goodies for lunch.

Nice lush garden
Nobody to welcome you. Located near the noisy highway and below the flight path to the airport, no need to bring with you an alarm clock, our favorite Airlines will do the job for you from 6:00 am. Inside the well named The Barn you will find two chairs but, be careful, one is completely distroyed. In the bedroom two beautiful lamps but one is out of order. If you want coffee don't forget to bring the coffee machine with you ... As well brush and sponge could be usefull, nothing is provided. All that for more than 100€ per night ... 🤔🤔

Location, quite and peaceful. Superb facilities in room 1. Asia the cat was a lovely extra. We have 7 cats at home on the UK and it was lovely to have Asia's presence. The courtyard and garden was pretty.
No air conditioning. Hard to sleep at night with heat and noisy fan. Absence of sun loungers in courtyard. Would benefit from a small swimming pool.

Nice location and aesthetically beautiful
HORRIBLE, WE HAD TO RUN AWAY OVERNIGHT
Accommodation in the summer becomes too hot, an oven.
Cleaning was probably skipped for a while, spider nets everywhere and floor very dirty.
Water from taps doesn’t flow properly, impossible to have a proper shower or even brush teeth.
5.0
The emplacement and the garden are amazing. Our room (#3) was decorated with a great taste. The cat, Asia, is a cheerful animal and probably the real owner of the place!
The equipment is poor. No aircon despite the heat wave (July), a very noisy fan, no TV, a lovely bathroom but without any intimacy (no door), a poorly equipped kitchen. Outside, in the beautiful yard, no umbrella and a table with a broken leg. It's a pity... If you read the other comments of the visitors you will reach the same conclusion.
6.0
Great location one can easily reach by car or by taxi. Great rustic setting, very quiet, big green space outdoor to enjoy the day, nice terrace.
The organic shop nearby is great - quality is top, but very pricey.
We would have appreciated being met and welcomed by the host when we arrived. Noone was appearing for a few days. I understand it's a rustic farm, but cleaning could have been done better - there were nets here and dead insects here and there. We couldn't find any kitchen towels or napkins to use, nor bags for the rubbish bin to change.
For a person sleeping on the sofa, it would have been nice to still have sleeping (not decorative) pillows and a light cover provided.
We would also loved to be provided with more details on the places to eat or shops nearby so we could stock for breakfasts.
The big disappointment was to see a bottle of Fairy for dishwashing, while the place is promoting all things organic and bio.

The place is really nice and authentic. It was easy to find and check-in was very convenient. Location wise is fine and you can get around anywhere, also being surrounded by trees and fields were eco fruits and vegetables are being grown. The room size is sufficient and also a small kitchenette is available, while the inner garden is absolutely amazing !!!
5.0
Bed was comfortable, good shower & able to cook on the hot plate
The floor needed to be swept, the WiFi code on the leaflet in the room is different to the WiFi code sent by the owner, so that’s confusing
8.0
Amazing location - quiet and tranquil. All the necessary kitchen utensils available. Spacious and comfortable.
As we visited in march, the apartment was a bit cold and damp. It was ok for us though as we are from a northern country.
9.0
This place has a fantastic feel, as if you had left 'tourist' Malta behind to travel back in time to stay in a rural environment that is difficult to find on such a populated island.
As well as your suite you also have an outside area to eat and read in as well as a more modern touch in the lighting effects around the place, all very tasteful.
It is a bit out of town and a bit difficult to find if you only have intermittent internet, this can present a challenge at the end of the day if arriving on foot or by bus.

The rooms cleanly and spacious, well equipped and full of character, the outdoors stunning - overall superb! The organic and eco-friendly shop down the road is also a perfect, convenient touch
Nothing to say

The location is gorgeous; and the cat is adorable :-) The studio is a refurbished shed with AC, a kitchenette, table and chairs and a sofa. The bedroom is upstairs.
The outside area is very nice and private, with comfy furniture and lots of flower plants.
As it's a former shed, there were no windows so it felt a bit closed up, especially when outside the sun shines. One of the gas burners was full of water, so we had to dry it first before we could use it.
It's a decent room but in general, I would not call this a DeLuxe studio, as other apartments in the courtyard were bigger and cosy, and nicely decorated.

we loved the limestone and the space. it had a wonderful courtyard with a table under a roof - great for the rain we had experienced. the rooms even came with dishes and a kettle so we could prepare our selves some tee and a little breakfast
we had a little trouble finding the key at first but figured it out eventually. also there is little to no network reception an the WiFi didn’t work. the location was also a little isolated but a 600m walk brings you to the next grocery

The accommodation was lovely, we enjoyed our stay. We will definitely stay here again. We had the lovely company of Asia the cat, who is adorable. The location is great as well, peaceful garden area.
There was issues with internet in the whole area during the days when we stayed, but that was not the fault of our host.
9.0
Location amazing, the building fantastic (both the interiors and the terraces, garden, open spaces). There was also a nice shop next to the building, selling organic products including their own grown vegetables
Everything was great really, only things: in our studio there were no dish drainer, no kitchen towels. Also not enough places where to hang clothes and bath towels, etc.
