Stunning venue
From the time we drove up the ramp into the car park all we kept on saying was “wow”.
An absolutely beautiful hotel with quirky features, but not letting us forget the misery former inmates endured whilst there. The two nights we spent there were brilliant. The room was spotless, every detail thought about. Actually memorable experience we will never ever forget.
Thank you Bodmin Jail.
