Michael House is a vegetarian and vegan guest house/bed and breakfast offering delicious food in a wonderful setting. The house is set just over a mile from Tintagel in north Cornwall, in the pretty hamlet of Treknow. It looks down towards the sea over rolling fields and the valley leading to Trebarwith Strand, whose stunning beach is five minutes drive away, or fifteen minutes on foot.
We are
conveniently situated for the coastal footpath, which is a ten minute walk
away, with dramatic scenery in both directions. Bodmin Moor is a half hour
drive away and Tintagel, at the centre of the Arthurian legends, the site
of the ancient castle, is just down the road.
