Jamaica Inn

BOLVENTOR, Launceston, PL15 7TS

The setting for Daphne du Maurier's famous novel, this 18th-century inn stands high on Bodmin Moor. Its Smugglers Museum houses fascinating artefacts, while the Daphne du Maurier room honours the great writer. The place is big on atmosphere, with a cobbled courtyard, beamed ceilings and roaring fires, plus a children's play area and beautiful gardens. Breakfasts, mid morning snacks and lunches provide an inviting choice, while the evening menu offers steaks, fish, chicken and vegetarian options. This inn changed hands in 2010.

We had been looking forward to this for the whole week. We were on the last leg of a round the UK charity drive to raise money for Help 4 Heroes and our families were meeting us in Lands End. Delicious carvery, great atmosphere, very helpful and friendly staff.

While the food isn't the best - they would do a roaring trade if they had a carvery?-the atmosphere more than makes up for it. A wonderful building with lovely views and enough spook to keep it in the back of your mind. We stopped here on our honeymoon to enjoy the log fire and it was a beautifully atmospheric experience. Leave the food, enjoy the sceenry and appreciate the building.

AVOID IT! A tourist trap and nothing more. Overpriced tasteless microwaved rubbish which ruined our homeward bound leg of our family holiday. You have been warned...
