"Jamaica Inn is an old coach house high upon Bodmin Moor and is the perfect place to stop off for a drink or a bite to eat on the way into or on the way out of Cornwall.
With its great history relating to Daphne du Maurier's novels the coach house attracts many visitors and travelers.
Many come to the coach house to see the museum based on Daphne du Marurier but I tend to go up there because of the perfect views over Bodmin Moor. Nearby there is a short walk that takes you to Dozmery Pool which is supposed to be linked with King Arthur and the lady of the lake – and the panoramic views are spectacular.
The coach house offers bed and breakfast, has a restaurant and an excellent bar menu all of which is home cooked food. There is a very cozy lounge bar which in the winter is warmed with a comforting log fire.
I would recommend Jamaica Inn to anyone visiting the county if they wish to explore any of the moor areas or take in some history.
The Inn can be found just off the A30 at Bolventor, midway between Launceston and Bodmin in Cornwall, Jamaica Inn is conveniently situated and easily accessible from the M5, Devon and Plymouth. Telephone number: - 01566 86250"
