Jamaica Inn

This was originally a coaching inn in the middle of wild Bodmin Moor. Now it houses the Smugglers Museum - it's amazing how ingenious smugglers were at hiding their contraband - and a homage to Daphne du Maurier whose novel Jamaica Inn made the place famous. Her writing desk and typewriter are here. |more things to do| 

But the main business of Jamaica Inn is - fittingly given its origin - as a hotel and restaurant to feed and water weary travellers on their way to and from Cornwall. |map| |nearby attraction|
