This selection of Bodmin holiday cottages is nestled in the heart of North Cornwall, with an amazing moor on your doorstep, nature reserves surrounding the town and two spectacular coastlines lying just a short drive away, making for an ideal base for families, couples and friends wanting to explore Cornwall's many delights.
Why Bodmin?
When you finally tear yourself away from your Bodmin accommodation, you will find plenty of attractions dotted throughout the town that are bound to bring out the inner-historian in you, such as: joining the jury of a Victorian murder trial in the Courtroom Experience of Shire Hall, tracing the region's history in the Bodmin Town Museum, viewing the military memorabilia in the Duke of Cornwall Light Infantry Museum, and exploring five fascinating floors in Bodmin Jail. Those wanting to experience Cornwall's outdoors can travel to the nearby Cardinham Woods or the Cabilla & Redrice Woods nature reserve to embark on a cycle or walk through the gorgeous greenery; Bodmin also hosts its own hiking area, Bodmin Beacon, meaning you don't need to stray far from the town to stretch your legs.
