Visited first around 2018 and absolutely loved wandering around the levels. We went again back in May 2024. It's changed a lot, not sure if you can wander around the levels to the extent you could do before. We did the scare attraction which was really good fun and well put together with great actors. Certainly worth the money. But I'm not sureni like the modern renovation. I like it the way it was before as it had character and charm, something has been lost now. I didnt take a pics of the new section. Still well worth visiting.
Excellent experience of UK History Remember don't stay of the path. When you visit, you'll see what I mean. Please take the time and go there Wait timeNo waitReservation recommendedYes
Loved it. Gemma, the tour guide, was brilliant from start to finish. The displays, interactive experiences, holograms ,etc, and the overall experience were very good. Great value for money given the extent of the tour and the investment made in providing a true experience of the jail.Visited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedYes
Myself and my partner took part in a 'Heritage Tour' earlier today - we booked based on the good reviews online and Bodmin Jail did not disappoint! It's a great activity to do, especially if the weather is bad as its mainly inside/undercover. The tour guide was brilliant - clearly very knowledgeable and the tour was very interesting. I'd say it's aimed more at older children, if you have any - just based on the subject matter. On our tour there were a variety of ages, however. Overall - would recommend. I felt it was better value for money than some of the other tourist stuff in the local area!
Exploring Bodmin Jail was a mix of amazement and spookiness. The cells exuded a sense of history and pain that resonated deeply. It was a powerful experience connecting with the stories of the past prisoners. Definitely a must-visit for those seeking a haunting yet enlightening historical journey.Visited onWeekdayWait timeUp to 10 minReservation recommendedYes
Ghost tour was great, very spooky. Tours guide were really good. Especially like the walk around on your own at the end of the tour, may have given some of the other tour goers a fright by accident of course
I've attended many private investigations at this venue, long b4 the hotel and museum. I've been twice to the attraction as the interactive dark walk /museum. Never fails, My children and I love it. We came out of season and didn't really have to wait. Maybe worth checking before arriving peak times.Visited onWeekendWait timeUp to 10 minReservation recommendedNot sure
We did the self guided tour. Parking was a tad far from the prison. Restaurant onsite is expensive and not a lot of choice. The jail part was really good, interactive and dark in parts. Enjoyed it. Shame the lights out is only in the evening. Enjoyable all the same.Visited onWeekendWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedYes
Awesome experience we had to go in one at a time as not dog friendly, the Café was closed, massive mistake on a Half term, l would definitely return as my wife missed the hangingVisited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedYes
Probably not suitable for young children but very informative interactive event. Thoroughly enjoyed it and want to return for the paranormal scare evening.Visited onWeekendWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNo
