Iron and steel town, never going to be paradise.  But even such will have good bits, people told me Harlow would be utterly horrible and it isn't.

Sad thing is most people only know Scunthorpe for that silly interweb filter issue.  I await Nick's enlightening reports.  Popcorn:

Weather lowdown
February is usually the second coldest month of the year in Malta, although the weather conditions and temperatures are normally almost identical to those in January. During this month, the average temperature for the island rises from 12°C at the start of the month up to 13°C by the end of the month. Daily highs increase from 15°C to 16°C and daily lows also rise from 9°C to 10°C.
Since 1987, the highest maximum temperature which has ever been recorded in Malta in February is 24.1°C which was registered in 2010. The lowest minimum temperature which has ever been recorded on the island during this month is 2.6°C, which was registered in 1999.
The average sea temperature for Malta in February is 16°C, which is considered to be far too cold for swimming by most people. If you really want to go for a dip during your holiday, you should stick to heated and indoor swimming pools.
In February, Malta receives an average of 62mm of rainfall, divided across 13 days. With rain falling on around ½ of the month, it’s almost certain that you’ll experience at least some type of precipitation during your holiday. It’s always better to be safe than sorry, so make sure you pack some waterproof clothing or an umbrella. The most likely type of precipitation you’ll get in Malta in February is moderate rain, followed by thunderstorms and then light rain.
The chance of rain occurring at any point during your holiday in Malta in February drops as the month develops. Precipitation is most likely to occur on February 1st, when it falls on 54% of days. On the other hand, precipitation is least likely to happen on February 28th, when it only falls on 46% of days.
Although the rain is quite frequent in Malta in February, the wet spells are usually heavy and over with quite quickly compared to northern and central Europe. On occasion, February can be a very wet month, if low pressure systems track further south than usual. But there is also the odd February which is very dry, thanks to the lows tracking further north than usual.
Since 1985, the highest monthly rainfall ever to occur in Malta in February is 181.3mm, which was recorded in 1996. Fifteen years later in 2011, Malta was subject to 22 rainy days in one month, making it the wettest February in almost three decades. The highest amount of precipitation ever to fall within 24 hours in Malta during this month is 43.7mm, which was recorded in 1987.
Malta enjoys an average of eight hours of sunshine each day in February, a figure which is significantly higher than many other places in northern and central Europe. As February progresses, the length of the day gradually increases. Between February 1st and February 28th, the day lengthens by 58 minutes. The shortest day of the month is February 1st, with ten hours and 25 minutes of daylight and the longest day of the month is February 28th, with 11 hours and 23 minutes of daylight.
The average daily relative humidity for Malta during this month is 76%, which is quite high. This average is made up of highs of 94% (very humid) and lows of 60% (mildly humid). The air is usually at its driest around February 20th, when the relative humidity falls below 67%, whereas the air is normally at its most humid around February 1st, when it rises above 90% three days out of every four.
The average cloud coverage on any given day in Malta in February is 50% - partly cloudy. This figure very gradually drops as the month develops, falling from 51% down to 49%.
During an average February in Malta, typical wind speeds fluctuate between 1 m/s and 8 m/s – light air to moderate breeze. Wind speeds almost never exceed 12 m/s – strong breeze. The highest average wind speed of 5 m/s (gentle breeze) usually happens around February 18th, when the average daily maximum wind speed is 8 m/s. On the other hand, the lowest average wind speed of 5 m/s tends to occur around February 28th, when the average daily maximum wind speed is 8 m/s. Since 1997, the highest wind gust which has ever been recorded in Malta in February is 39 knots which was registered in 2011 and 2012.
Serious weather hazards rarely occur in Malta, but they’re not completely uncommon. Following rare snowfalls on January 31st in 1962, an air frost was widely reported over inland parts of Malta on February 1st in 1962. On this day, the all-time low temperature record of -1.7°C was registered at Ta' Qali airfield. Wet snow was observed briefly across the island during February 1895 but it didn’t settle.

It may have improved in the last 6 years but when we went there you could not get a Sat nav map for it (you can now) and we discovered their road signs are very helpfully (not) dirty and have blue writing on a blue background.

Over 2 hours to find our hotel which was all of about 5 miles from the airport.

IMHO Malta+Gozo is OK for a long weekend but a week is too long even with the excellent Vampire at their air museum.
