St Benets Abbey

ST. BENETS ABBEY, TRURO ROAD, BODMIN

St. Benet's Abbey is a family run business. Although offering all modern comforts the building retains the charm and character of it's historical past. The seven bedrooms are well furnished in an individual style, with ensuites, colour TVs, central heating, hair dryers and tea/coffee making facilities. The abbey has ample offroad parking.
The location of St Benets Abbey makes it an ideal base for the tourist, being ½ a mile from the A30, just outside Bodmin and easy to find. In the village you will find a pretty pub, a Norman Church, post office and village shop. Padstow, Tintagel (the legendary birthplace of King Arthur) Port Issac & Boscastle on the North coast and Fowey, St Austell (with the port of Charlestown), Looe, Polperro & Mevagissey to the South are excellent days out.
St Benets is at the half-way point of the Saints Way, a medieval route taken by pilgrims on their way from Ireland to France which crosses from Padstow to Fowey making it an excellent two-day walk with a comfortable over-night stop at the abbey.
Throughout the year we host a variety of special events and celebrations

What a lovely place, situated just right, Carol and family were absolutely lovely, we were met with a very warm welcome and a tour of the abbey even though they were very busy with a booked christening. Probably the best overnight stop we have ever had. Lovely pub within walking distance, we had a really good roast beef dinner there. All in all almost faultless, would love to return here.

An excellent base for exploring East Cornwall with friendly hosts and an excellent breakfast. Accommodation and furnishings fit in well with the historic building. Can't recommend highly enough.

An unusual hotel but very friendly. A shame there is no restaurant as it meant going to Bodmin for a meal.

Staying here was a total pleasure. The hotel is family-run by caring hosts, comfortable, atmospheric, secluded and provides breakfasts to die for. It is perfectly situated as a base for exploring Cornwall and we'd recommend it to anyone!
