Surely Cornwall's most famous inn, this is the setting of Daphne Du Maurier's novel 'Jamaica Inn'. The pub is a Grade II-listed building and was built in the mid-18th century. It was a well known smugglers inn and is today quite a tourist destination. In the heart of Bodmin Moor, it certainly occupies an impressive position.
