Bodmin Jail Hotel – as the name suggests – dates back to 1779 and is carved out of the region’s most notorious prison, with modern-day visitors now willingly being shown to their ‘quarters’.
As a preserved Grade II-listed building, the cells may have been given a swish makeover, but the heritage of the building is very much in place. The four floors now have modern walkways, but you can’t avoid the fact that this was once unmistakably a prison. But that’s the point. So-called ‘Dark Tourism’ is big business, with many interested in the past lives of those that lived and died in historic buildings.
The menu lightens the mood with its wide choice of locally-inspired dishes that have seasonal produce at their core. It’s pleasingly inventive with starters including a Cornish Mackerel with Green Apple and Wasabi or Cornish New Potatoes with a Poached Hen’s Egg and Truffle Mayonnaise. Mains include Roasted Turbot with Brown Shrimp or Saffron Crushed Potatoes and Grilled Asparagus Tart with Ricotta and Roasted Shallots.
