Hi all,

Happy New Year, 2023.

Just a quick update.

Unfortunately, my Facebook account was hacked a few weeks ago and I lost my account completely as a result.  This means that my FB page, 'Michael House, a vegan guest house in Cornwall' currently is not available for my use, I cannot see any messages sent to me.  So, please be reassured I am not  ignoring messages, nor have we closed down.  Until I get this sorted out, or start a new page, please contact me by email, on info@michael-house.co.uk.  Thank you and so sorry for any inconvenience.  Hope to see you.

Delighted to let you know that our normal email address is now working again.  info@michael-house.co.uk, if you wish to make a booking or have any queries.  We plan to open on 24th May.

 Hello,

We are hoping to re-open on Monday 24th May 2021

The info@michael-house.co.uk email is currently not available, so sorry, really bad timing for it to be down.  Please do use vanessalackford@icloud.com for a while.  I hope the usual one will soon be up and running again.

Hope to see you in a few months.

 Hi all,

We have taken the difficult decision not to re-open Michael House this season.  As we are caring for Simon’s elderly mother, it seems wise that we remain shut.  We hope to see you next year.  

2020

People sometimes comment on how reasonable a stay at Michael House is. They wonder whether breakfast is extra, it isn't, and are surprised that there are so many dishes to choose between for evening meals. Because the meals are planned ahead and I cook only one dish for each course, ie., everyone has the same, there is really no limit to what can be offered, apart from what is available in local shops and my skill and imagination.

Realising that charging £34.00 per person, per night for bed and breakfast if you stay for five nights or more with another person in the same room, is really slightly embarrasingly cheap, we have reveiwed our prices for 2020.

And have decided to KEEP THEM THE SAME.

Making money is not our motivator, making people happy is. As long as we make enough to get by, that is all that matters to us. By not increasing prices, we may not be able to update the bathroom in room 2 for yet another year. Yes, it is still pink!

We do charge considerably more for one night stays (£42.00 pppn) but it comes down to £36.00 per person per night for two to four nights.

And doggies are welcome, if accompanied by well behaved humans. We charge £10.00 per doggy, per stay, for up to 7 nights.

Pickle will welcome you to your room, if you would like her to, will join you, roll about a bit, help you settle, then leave. Berri will love you and demand a lot of love back, Sheba will knick your seat if you stand up and will want to sit on you. Velvet is nine now, so not as cute as here in her baby picture. All the animals (there are more than shown)can be elsewhere if preferred.

Hope to see you in 2020.

We are fully open from today.  We have done a few things over the past weeks, but, today is the day we open properly!  The clifftops will soon be looking like this, from a previous year!  Fantastic time in Cornwall, May and June.  Hope to see you.
