Thank you so much for this ‘exclusive’ tour Steve. I was there three years ago, but there was no way l could get inside (still privately owned) and then it was put on the market to be demolished by another property developer. Thank goodness Heritage Malta has stepped in to preserve an important piece of Malta’s history. l look forward to seeing it again once it is fully restored, but so much of Malta is being destroyed by greedy unsympathetic developers. Do visit the wonderful Villa Frere Gardens being restored nearby, beyond the hospital - it’s well worth it.

Hi Steve, and thank you so very much for making this video for us to see. I have been to the outside this Villa a number of times in my visits to Malta over the years, but only had access to old photos of how it looked like from the inside. You have now completed the overall picture for me, so thanks again, and I look forward to seeing it refurbished hopefully in a few years time. Cheers and keep up the good work.

Evening Steve. Lovely to see inside the building. There's a lot of work to be done and I bet the budget goes over the 9 million estimate. I bet the Queen and Duke would like to see this. So if anyone has a contact at the Palace....

It's so wonderful place, as one of Maltese chatarestic building styles, everything was made by the Maltese craftsmen, mentioning like, the Maltese old tradition tile patterns, if it's those outside metal gates, surrounding the main door, everything fine art hand details. It was so epic history during those periods, when Malta was truly a prestige island, not just in videos, but even on photos of history shots, including the views, with so less huge of these massive buildings of concrete and towers. The British they kept Malta so purity freshness as environment and fauna, in through glory island era state, not nowwwww!!!!!

Greetings from San Francisco. I see the weather in Malta is getting summer like. I enjoy the tour of the Queens residence in Malta. The building is enormous. So many rooms and a huge garden to boot. It’s to bad that it’s been neglected and not maintained properly. I was glad to hear that the government is investing $9million to renovate the building and property.

Thankyou for such an awesome viewing of inside. I visited the house on my honeymoon in 2015 when I chatted to the owner and she asked me if I wanted to buy the villa. Very nice lady but in desperate need of funds. I visited it again last week and yesterday. (September 2021). This time I chatted to a local who gave me an update on Villa. I left a Union Jack on the house but was removed. I took many photos and I plan to send them to the Queen on my return home back to the UK. Can’t wait to see an update on this Villa. Keep up the great work x

Very nice video capture of such a gorgeous place. Nice video capture of such a gorgeous mansion. No doubt the HRH's like it here. In an entirely unrelated memory, I remember back in the 1970s there was a film about an assassination plot that took place in this island state of Malta. Forgot about the film until I saw this video though.

Brilliant Steve. Yesterday was a sad day for Britain and the Commonwealth. We can only imagine how even very much sadder for The Queen. Philip was a great man of a great generation, which saved us all from horrible dictatorship. So his funeral yesterday was a proud occasion too. Glad to see that the Queen and the Duke got to see the place again on their recent visit. I hope to see it when it has been restored, if it is going to be open to the public. And hope that Her Majesty will be able to see it then too, if she wants to.

What a scoop to be able to film Guardamangia!! Especially being aired on the day Prince Philip died. Thank you Rose, Steve and Heritage Malta. It should have been renovated years ago, it will be very popular I'm sure and be a good money spinner!! Absolutely loved this video. We'll done and congrats on being allowed to video it. X

Brought back feelings of my childhood. My parents rented an old big villa in Naxxar in the main street It was in an alley. THERE WERE A FEW SHOPS NEXT TO THE ALLY. NOT FAR FROM THE PIAZZA. Now I am in Australia. O FEELINGS OF MY LIFE. MY DAD WAS A BUS DRIVER. THE 620. ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️ JOSEPHINE XXXXXX

Hello Steve, now this was a very interesting video to watch, well to me personally it is anyway, it would be very interesting to see how it would look like when it's finished, it's a shame that's been left as bad as that in the first place ; I'm glad you spoken nicely as the Queen & Prince Philip may have an interest and watch this clip too, as we all like to think in our young happy memories, thanks to all those that helped you to get in there to make this video, so close to where I was brought up in Hamrun and to where my brother & sister lives, and also very close to what use to be St. Luke's Malta's main Hospital, bye 4 now & thanks again.....

What an interesting video - thank you to Rose for organising this. I bet the Queen would love to see this although might make her sad to see it in such a bad state but to see the change once it has been restored. Looking forward to seeing it done and to visit

@EnglishmaninMalta 3 года назад

I am sure I will be giving you updates as it going along

@stephaniebonett3025 3 года назад

I wish I could have come :),Once the restoration will take place it will be a dream to go in, I can't wait to one day visit. It was such a pity that Prince Philip and the HRH did not have the opportunity to see it in there last visit.

@EnglishmaninMalta 3 года назад

I will try and keep you updated

Heritage Malta people have such a dedication and passion to take care of the Maltese history, if it wasn't for them Malta wouldn't even have half of it... but unfortunately, on the other side there are people with greed for money, power and non-sense from planning authority and politicians, that the island got ruined with constructions everywhere, as you can see in this beautiful video, apartments were built exactly next to a beautiful villa that cost millions while apartments towered on that beautiful garden and even the villa itself.

Yes They are doing some great projects very hard to keep up with them
