Bodmin

Bodmin is Cornwall's historic county town, nestled on the edge of Bodmin Moor in the heart of the duchy. This charming market town offers the perfect blend of heritage and wild moorland adventure, making it an excellent base for exploring both Cornwall's ancient past and dramatic landscapes.

The town sits at the gateway to Bodmin Moor, one of Cornwall's most atmospheric landscapes. The moor stretches for miles with granite tors, ancient stone circles, and legends of the Beast of Bodmin Moor adding mystery to your walks. It's brilliant walking country, from gentle strolls to challenging hikes across the windswept terrain.

Bodmin itself has plenty of character, with its old courthouse, historic church, and traditional Cornish architecture. The town serves as a practical hub too - you're well connected to the rest of Cornwall from here, with the A30 providing easy access to both the north and south coasts.

The location is superb for a holiday park stay. You're within striking distance of Cornwall's best beaches - the north coast's dramatic cliffs and surf spots are just 20 minutes away, while the gentler south coast harbours are equally accessible. Bodmin also puts you close to the Eden Project, Lost Gardens of Heligan, and numerous National Trust properties scattered across the county.

With several quality holiday parks nearby offering different experiences from adult-only touring to family glamping, Bodmin gives you the freedom to explore Cornwall's diverse attractions while enjoying the peace of the moorland setting.
