One place i had to stop and see was the Jamaica Inn. Rumour has it its haunted.. Ive read the book by "D. Du Maurier" So i felt compelled to pop in and get caught up in the atmosphere of the tale.

The afternoon itself was dark and shrouded the area in mist.. which i thought was the only way to see the Inn as its how i imagined it from the book.

inside the decor was in fitting with the story, even Joss`s Bar was intact.

nice fireplace..pity about the bloody ATM machine to the left...i wonder how many "dubloons" idve got for a quid ? :lol:

They served a nice meal selection from over a hot-food counter, and a lovely G & T !

Call in i tells ya lest ye walk the plank ahh harrrr !

and i agree that is so much like the book depicted it,

never had you down for a d,du maurier reader

It's only a few miles down the A30 from me ........ been in there a couple of times but it's normally overrun by emmets (tourists) in the summer and probably the most miserable, bleak, cold and wet place that exists in the winter :lol:

There's no ghosts :thumbsup:

It used to be so original, a proper country pub, it's been ruined by extensions and modernisation, I heard the food is average, caters for the emmets. Shame it was a nice place years ago.

Most of the so called 'features' are far from original. :lol:
