Getting there and practical details

Neighborhood
Bolventor, Bodmin Moor, Cornwall

Jamaica Inn can host day meetings, overnight delegate stays and private dinners for up to 80 people in a coaching inn on Bodmin Moor, with 36 bedrooms under the same roof. The inn stands at Bolventor in Cornwall and belongs to the Coaching Inn Group.

Seminars and company events

The inn sells meetings through delegate packages. A day delegate or 24-hour delegate package includes room hire and equipment, a hot drinks station, spring water and a lunch arranged for the group. A package can also be reduced to a meeting room alone. Rates are given on request through the event enquiry form. The setting suits small management meetings, planning days and training sessions where the team stays together, rather than conferences with several hundred seats. The on-site team can add team building: outdoor activities, wellness packages and cultural visits are offered as ways to break up the day. Business events are handled by the sales team, who can be reached at the address shown on the site.

Weddings and receptions

The event enquiry form lists weddings alongside corporate events, birthdays, anniversaries and other celebrations. The inn describes its lounges and corners as spaces that can be arranged to suit a celebration, and its bar and restaurant as a spacious room with beams and quiet corners for celebrations. The dedicated wedding page was not available when this page was prepared, so confirm ceremony options and guest numbers with the team.

Rooms and capacities

The Galley is the largest meeting room, a characterful space with natural daylight and step-free access. It takes 80 people in theatre layout, and 65 in boardroom or social layout. The Golitha Suite is a modern conference room for up to 16 people at a boardroom table, or 20 for a social gathering, with daylight, no pillars and a lockable door. It also works as a breakout room. The Film Room is smaller and keeps the smugglers' inn atmosphere: theatre for 30, boardroom for 20, U-shape or classroom for 16 to 20. The Bar and Restaurant is a spacious room for casual dining and celebrations, and the Cobbles terrace is used for gatherings in fine weather.

Accommodation

The inn has 36 classic bedrooms. All have high-speed Wi-Fi, a smart TV, a hairdryer, toiletries and tea and coffee. Corporate rates and streamlined booking are available for companies that send teams or visitors regularly. Rooms sit upstairs, close to the smuggling museum.

Catering

The kitchen serves Modern British dishes with local produce. For groups, the chefs prepare team dining from a guest list, and delegate packages include a lunch built for the group. The inn is open for food and drink from 07:30 to 23:00.

History and setting

The building is a Grade II listed coaching inn dating from the 1750s. It has low oak beams, open fires and the Smuggler's Bar, and houses a smuggling museum. It stands on Bodmin Moor, in the middle of Cornwall.

Getting there

The inn presents its position as central to Cornwall, with good road links from Plymouth and Exeter, and free parking for delegates.
