Hotel converted from the jail's Naval wing, with rooms built into the old cell arches. The attraction's own dog guidance states that dogs are more than welcome in the Bodmin Jail Hotel as well as the courtyard, café and shop. Cardinham Woods and the Camel Trail are both a short drive for the morning walk.
These are the parts only the business can add. We check the dog policy and stamp the date — photos, prices and their own words are theirs to put in, and this listing is waiting for them.
The rooms that take dogs, and where they sleep.
Can the dog actually sleep here, and what does it cost.
What a night actually costs, so nobody has to ring to find out.
How many dog-friendly rooms, whether they are ground floor, where the dog sleeps.
Claiming fills every box above, and lets you reply to reviews when they open. £15 a month, no contract, and it never changes the verdict — the stamp stays ours.
Georgian county gaol on the edge of Bodmin, now an immersive walk-through museum with the execution shed intact. Dogs are more than welcome in the courtyard, the Moor Café and the gift shop, but not in the main attraction itself because of the way the museum experience works. One of your party dog-sits and gets a free drinks token for the café.
Five and a third miles along the wooded upper Camel valley on the old railway and back by quiet lanes, two and a quarter hours and almost dead level throughout. Start at the Camel Trail car park at Dunmere, just off the A389 west of Bodmin, which is free and rarely full outside cycle-hire season. There are no stiles at all, which makes it a good route for an elderly or arthritic dog, and the river is easy to reach for a drink or a swim; a good deal of the route shares the trail with cyclists or uses lanes, so this is largely lead walking.
Forestry England valley woodland east of Bodmin, with four waymarked trails along the Cardinham Water and mountain-bike routes above. Dogs are welcome throughout and there is a card-operated dog wash by the car park, plus waste bins along the walking trails. Keep them close by and in sight rather than roaming.
Nobody has written one for Bodmin Jail Hotel. If you have been with the dog, you would be the first — and the first review is the one everybody reads.
