Devon » Bodmin accommodation
Bodmin is the former county town of Cornwall. The oldest
part is composed of mainly granite buildings clustered around a beacon on
a windswept hill. The town museum is housed in what was once the county jail.
The town expanded in the sixties and seventies, when people from the South
East of England were rehoused in the area. This has given Bodmin a more cosmopolitan
atmosphere.
Visitors arriving by train at Bodmin Parkway can catch a
steam train for the short journey into town.
Bodmin Moor has been made famous by Daphne du
Maurier and there is a small museum commemorating the author at
Jamaica Inn. In nearby St Neot Church
are some interesting fifteenth century stained glass windows, and not too
far from there are the Carnglaze Slate Caverns.
The Moor boasts several ancient stones and offers the possibility of a glimpse
of the renowned Beast of Bodmin.
Pencarrow, a privately owned Georgian house, and the late nineteenth century National Trust property, Lanhydrock, are both worth a visit. The latter also boasts a popular golf course.
