Jamaica Inn

 

Where weary travellers and smugglers would stay...

Built in 1750, Jamaica Inn was a coaching inn - a bit like our modern day service station. Weary travellers using the turnpike between Launceston and Bodmin would stay at the Inn after having crossed the wild and treacherous moor.

Some of the travellers were a little less respectable than most and used the Inn to hide away the contraband that had been smuggled ashore. It is estimated that half of the brandy and a quarter of all tea being smuggled into the UK was landed along the Cornish and Devon coasts.

Jamaica Inn was remote and isolated so it was the ideal stopping place on the way to Devon and onward. It is also thought that the Inn may have got its name because it did a considerable trade in rum!

In 1778 the Inn was extended to include a coach house, stables and a tack room creating the l-shaped main part of the building as it is today.

You can relive the smugglers' experience at Daphne du Maurier's Smugglers at Jamaica Inn. With one of the finest and most extensive collections of smuggling artefacts in the UK and you can experience in sound and light Daphne du Maurier's novel, Jamaica Inn.
