Located on the western edge of the granite uplands of Bodmin Moor, Bodmin occupies a central position in Cornwall that makes both coasts easily accessible. Historically the county town, it sits at a natural crossroads where the A30 and A38 meet, providing the most direct road links to Plymouth and Exeter found anywhere in the county. The town’s architecture is rooted in its past as a centre of administration and justice, evidenced by the imposing Shire Hall and the nearby St Petroc’s, which remains one of the largest parish churches in Cornwall. While the town centre provides the core amenities and supermarkets, the real character of the place is defined by the surrounding landscape; the Camel Trail begins here, offering a level, wooded path all the way to Padstow, while the immediate proximity to the moor provides miles of open space and high ground at places like Rough Tor and Brown Willy. It is a practical, working town with a long history, serving as a gateway to the more rugged, inland terrain of the Southwest.
