If you’re planning a visit to Bodmin, the previous county town of Cornwall, here are some attractions not to be missed!
Whether arriving via bike, along the Camel Trail, or car, don’t miss Bodmin Jail! Recently re-opened after a major re-development, you can immerse yourself in Cornwall’s Dark History in their new Dark Walk, with state of the art theatrical effects that bring some of the grimmest stories vividly to life. You can enjoy something to eat at The Jolly Hangman Tavern or even stay overnight in the new Bodmin Jail Hotel, a 4-star boutique hotel, built within the walls of the Grade II listed building.
