The local bus route will not take you directly the jail, but it will drop you off in Bodmin Town; an easy 10-minute walk away. We recommend that you check bus times with Transport for Cornwall before your visit.
Please note that buses are only frequent in high season.

Bodmin Parkway is on the mainline through Cornwall and is situated four miles outside of Bodmin Town. You will need to catch a bus or arrange a taxi for the journey from station to jail/ Bodmin Town. To check for the latest train times and to plan your journey, please visit Trainline.

We recommend that all coaches drop-off and pick-up at the bottom of the hill, below the jail. Please note that Drop Off and Collection location is purely at Driver's discretion.
