Situated in the centre of the county of Cornwall, the vibrant town of Bodmin is the perfect base for exploring the whole of the county. Just 30 minutes away from the beautiful beaches of both the north and south coast, it is also the gateway to the traffic-free walking and cycling route, the Camel Trail. As if those assets were not enough, it lies at the south-western edge of the windswept, undiscovered landscape of Bodmin Moor, with its granite tors and panoramic views. Nearby towns and villages include Lanhydrock, Lanivet, Lanlivery, Washaway and Cardinham.
Being one of the oldest towns in the county, Bodmin features numerous notable buildings, such as the Turret Clock, marking the site of the ancient Butter Market, the Assize Hall and the Shire House. The imposing and eerie Bodmin Gaol is a unique visitor’s attraction, renowned for its ghosts.
The town centre is a lively mix of shops, arcades and cafes. There is ample parking in and around the centre, and bikes can be hired for use on the Camel Trail.
The world-famous Eden Project is within easy reach and the impressive houses of Lanhydrock and Pencarrow are on the doorstep. Follow the links to find holiday cottages and lets available in this area on Go2, or view the surrounding area on the map below.
North Cornwall
Wilder and more rugged than the south of the county, North Cornwall is a land of
tall headlands, sandy beaches and empty moorland – yours to explore from one of
our holiday cottages in North Cornwall. The busy resort of Newquay is a major attraction,
with its glorious beaches and fantastic conditions for surfers. Nearby Perranporth
also boasts some fantastic beaches, perfect for sun-lovers. You’ll find many more
lovely beaches, like those at Bude for example, waiting for you on one of our North
Cornwall cottage holidays. This part of Cornwall has become a bit of a mecca for
food lovers too. Rick Stein has put Padstow on the map and more chefs, including
Jamie Oliver, are joining him, attracted by the quality of the ingredients available
locally. Then there is St. Ives, long a haunt of artists drawn here by the wonderful
light and inspiring scenery. A cottage holiday in North Cornwall puts you in touch
with history from ancient celtic times to the days of the smugglers. Tintagel Castle,
rumoured to be the birthplace of King Arthur, sits high on a cliff and still has
a strange air of mystery about it.
South Cornwall
Wonderful scenery, a mild climate, sparkling blue seas and charming seaside villages
make South Cornwall a firm favourite for cottage holidays whatever the season. And
we have a fabulous choice of holiday cottages in South Cornwall from which to make
the most of this lovely part of the country. The Cornish Riviera takes in some of
South Cornwall’s most popular resorts and many of our holiday cottages in South
Cornwall are located nearby. Picturesque Fowey is a haven for sailors, while the
Roseland Peninsula is a noted beauty spot. Mevagissey, St. Mawes and St. Just are
all well worth a visit. Not to be missed is the Eden Project, a fascinating recreation
of different biospheres, featuring a wide variety of exotic plantlife. You should
also make time for a trip to atmospheric St. Michael’s Mount and on to Land’s End,
the most westerly point in England. The county town of Truro has a lovely cathedral
and some excellent shopping opportunities, while Penzance is a bustling resort,
famed for its warm weather and sub-tropical plants. And do make sure you sample
the pasties, saffron cake and clotted cream – all local delicacies, – during your
cottage holiday.

Travelling to or from Ireland? Don't forget the ferry! Not only does it give you
the freedom of taking your own car but it provides a superb experience of travelling
by sea and exploring the coastline. With convenient routes between Holyhead and Dublin, or Pembroke and Rosslare, we recommend
Irish Ferries for great, low-cost, transport. They are the leading Irish ferry company and provide both an excellent service, and excellent prices.
