" Your staff in all departments were helpfulness personified, and one felt they were all working as a united team. We cannot speak to highly of the food. . . ."

Festive Bargain Breaks in Cornwall
Escape to Cornwall during the festive period and make the most of your time off. The crisp clean air, mild climate, quiet roads and open countryside make Cornwall the ideal winter destination. The crowds have gone, the beaches are empty and the Gulf Stream keeps the air mild – making now the perfect time to make the most of the Cornish coastal walks, beaches, gardens and attractions.
During your stay at St Michael’s you may like to:
- Visit one of the many beautiful sandy beaches along Cornwall’s coast; wiggle your toes in the sea; build a sandcastle or simply take in the views
- Walk along the dramatic Cornish coastal footpaths linking hidden coves and beaches
- Indulge in fish and chips out of the paper by the harbour in one of Cornwall’s many fishing villages
- Go skating at The Eden Project’s Winter Wonderland – a truly magical experience in the evenings when the biomes are lit
- Choose a piece of art from one of Cornwall’s myriad of galleries. Perhaps following a visit to Tate St Ives!
- Visit one of Cornwall’s famous gardens – which are still full of colour and scent at this time of year
- Play golf at Falmouth Golf Club overlooking the sea or any one of 20 or more magnificent courses
- Take a family cycle trial (bike hire available) through Cornwall’s mining heritage (now a World Heritage Site)
- Visit King Henry VIII’s Pendennis Castle near St Michael’s and St Mawes castle opposite
- Discover Cornwall’s maritime heritage and enjoy the theatre of boating at Cornwall’s National Maritime Museum, 15 minutes walk from the hotel
- Or simply spend the day at St Michael’s Spa taking a swim in the large heated pool and enjoying the sauna, steam room and Jacuzzi. Indulge in a spa treatment, or read a book in the relaxation room.
