Bodmin Caravan Holidays
Bodmin is also a popular holiday destination for those wanting to explore the south west and for those wanting to take in the natural beauty of the region and from our point of view there can be no better way to experience the idyllic countryside of Cornwall than on a caravan holiday.
Thankfully, Bodmin and the surrounding area is home to a small number of high quality caravan parks.
Bodmin Attractions
Whilst Bodmin is certainly a destination for those wanting a relaxing holiday that is not to say that there aren’t things to see and do in and around the town itself.
The nearby Lanhydrock House and Garden is a popular day out for visitors to region with the stunning grounds offering a wide range of vibrant flowers and plants.
If you are a fan of wine, you may know that the climate of the south west of England is great for growing grapes and that there are a number of vineyards in the area but perhaps not so many will know that some of those vineyards allow you to take tours around them and to see the process of making wine at first hand- of course the chance to try some of the local favourites tipples is also a great reason for visiting!
For many visitors to the region when they think about Bodmin it is Bodmin Moor that instantly comes to mind with the moorlands been home to many of the sources for the countries rivers as well as been home to Brown Willy, the highest point in Cornwall.
This idyllic part of the county is great for walkers and hikers to explore and with a long history including links to the Arthurian legend (The Moors Dozmary Pool is believed to be the lake in which Sir Bedivere threw Excalibur to the Lady of the Lake) and with the Moor been both an Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) and an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) it is well worth visiting.
Bodmin has a long history going back to the days of piracy and mining been the main industries in the region and this was a time of many uprisings and as with much of Cornwall and Devon, Bodmin was a turbulent place for many many years. This can be best experienced at the former Bodmin Jail which is now a visitor attraction.
