Dog food?  My favourite

Michael House is featured, along with 7 other veggie and vegan places, in the March edition of Vegetarian Living magazine. Have a look if you get a chance.

Loads of artichokes, and no-one to eat them!

We have lots of artichokes from the garden at present, absolutely delicious, and they make lovely soup, with carrot, or roasted or in pies etc.  We just had them with potato in rosti, very nice!

Happy New Year everyone! I shall be very slightly tweaking the tariff for Michael House for this year, but all bookings taken before the new rates appear on the website will be honoured at the old prices, so get booking!

this picture was taken on holiday in Shropshire!

Christmas break, 2011

Fancy being looked after and spoiled over the Christmas period? Get away from it all, relax, walk and have tea by the open fire at Michael House, followed by delicious festive meals! We are offering a four night break over Christmas again this year, as follows:



Arrive on Saturday 24th December, in time for afternoon tea by the fire and a three course evening meal.



On Christmas Day, have a leisurely breakfast, which will precede a four course Christmas dinner in the early/mid afternoon. Supper will be buffet style.



Boxing Day, another leisurely breakfast and a light lunch if you would like it. Afternoon tea will again be served by the fire, and a three course evening meal will follow.



On Tuesday 27th, breakfast, afternoon tea and a three course supper will be on offer. Guests will depart on the Wednesday morning, after breakfast.



Four nights, partly full board, £325 per person for the en-suite rooms, and £275 for the room with private bathroom. A single supplement will apply.



Bookings for earlier or later dates will be at the normal rate.

Home Vegan Cornwall

Would have loved to be at Vegfest in Bristol, but am very happy here, being busy!  We have availability  from Friday 3rd June onwards, when I think the weather forecast is looking good...

Velvet is happy too, in her empty food bag!

Velvet is growing so fast!

Availability - we are booked up all over Easter and the Wedding weekend. We have availability during the week between the two Bank Holidays, from Monday 25th until Friday 29th April. Have a great Easter.

I am Maru - The stunt cat (the melophonic remix)

We are enjoying excellent weather at present, and have some availability.  Don't forget our three for two offer, which ends on Saturday 16th April, three nights for the price of two, two people, evening meals included, £245 for an en-suite room. What a bargain!

Velvet

A friend of mine is seeking an animal loving person who would like to look after her cat when she occasionally goes away and also feed the birds (which she doesn't chase !). She's nearly 16, very sweet, rather shy, very healthy .


House is in Boscastle, easy and comfortable, centrally heated, modern house at the top of the village.

there would be time to explore the area and have a free mini holiday!

More specifically, she is seeking someone(s) for this coming weekend, Friday 18th - Monday 21st February.

if you are interested for this weekend, or in general for the future, please contact me Vanessa, in the first instance, on info@michael-house.co.uk, and give a contact number/email, and I will pass them to Trish to contact you.  I have met Amber, she is a sweet cat!

Valentine Weekend

We still have some availability over the weekend just prior to Valentine's Day, as well as some over the half term holiday.

We may well have a new member of the family by then.  We have arranged to adopt a sweet collie (pos with a bit of spaniel as well).  Al;though it is very soon after Sky died, and we still miss her enormously, if we did not take on a new dog now we would not have the time to devote to settling her and training until the autumn.  Berri is missing his playmate too, so we have decided to take the plunge now!  I tried to load photos of her from the rescue site, but was not able to.  Doubltless there will be many to follow!
