We've stayed at The Cornish Arms on many occasions and it never fails to disappoint. Fantastic welcoming staff, wonderful food (dinner and breakfast) and a well-appointed and luxurious room.

First class furnishings, including very wide and comfortable bed, and good ensuite. The breakfast room was closed because of Covid 19, but the room service breakfast was very comprehensive and very generous, and delicious!

Absolutely beautiful hotel in the old jail, so many of the original features with a modern feel. Breakfast was incredible, best eggs Benedict I’ve ever had and the continental selection was amazing.

First morning at breakfast it was a little disappointing, we went down at 9am and the buffet was basically gone! We went down earlier the next couple of days and it was so much better. Room was perfect, and the area was great.

Hidden away in the beautiful village of South Zeal, The Oxenham Arms is one of those places that feels like a real discovery. A stunning historic building surrounded by gorgeous gardens, it has all the charm you'd hope for from a proper country inn. What really makes it special, though, is the wonderful team – warm, welcoming and genuinely friendly from the moment you arrive. If you're looking for somewhere with character, a peaceful off-the-beaten-track setting and fantastic hospitality, this...

Beautiful views, warm welcome, exceptional service. Staff could not do enough for you providing helpful guidance on activities in the area. Cannot recommend enough, just a note on parking facilities they are a challenge.

The south-western county of Cornwall draws in visitors from all over the world, thanks largely to its abundance of natural beauty. Many people travel to Cornwall in search of the perfect wave, or just to laze on its many glorious, sandy beaches. But venture beyond the coast and you'll discover that some of the county's most spectacular natural charms can be found inland. Bodmin Moor is a stunning expanse of countryside, home to an array of welcoming hotels, B&Bs and guesthouses.
Brown Willy: the Highest Point
Whether you're a serious walker looking for a challenge, or are just keen to look upon the county's highest point, Brown Willy is an impressive landmark. The Tor is actually an ancient volcanic 'plug' and is located a short distance north-west of Bolventor, in east Cornwall. Nearby accommodation includes the intimate Mennabroom, which also houses a business centre, and the Trehellas House Hotel and Restaurant, closer to the busy little town of Wadebridge.
Dozmary Pool: the Stuff of Legends
Bodmin Moor is an atmospheric and at times mysterious place, so it won't surprise visitors to learn that much of it is steeped in legend. One of the most popular spots of legend on the moor is Dozmary Pool. The small body of water is said to be the home of the Lady of the Lake, who offered the famous sword Excalibur to King Arthur. It's said that the sword was hurled into the pool once again following King Arthur's death in battle. The water is also home to some spectacular animal and plant-life.
Golfing on the Moor
Areas of natural beauty tend to lend themselves to outdoor activities. Fortunately for golfers, there are plenty of fine courses in the county, particularly in the area around Bodmin Moor. The Trethorne Hotel and Golf Club offers golfers the chance to tee of within the hotel grounds. Set in stunning grounds, the hotel also caters for weddings and corporate events.
Day Trips
Cornwall is a relatively small county, meaning there are plenty of fabulous things to see and do within a short distance of Bodmin Moor. The north coast offers ample opportunity for keen surfers to get wet, while the south coast is blessed with an abundance of pretty villages and sheltered coves, and some excellent hotels and B&Bs to choose from too.
