This is how you do a refit. It looks beautiful but still has all the elements of the original building either featured or as a novelty talking point. The architects and designers who worked on this should be applauded. I would love to stay here but I get the feeling just from the video that it is 100% haunted. I’d definitely need a sleep buddy, too!

@juliedubberley1192 3 месяца назад

Yes the design concept was spot on. My only reservation is I couldn't cope with those tiny windows, a bit too authentic for me .

@sicr7373 Год назад

In my humble opinion this is easily the best and most interesting hotel you have ever visted on the channel, and I think the price you paid of £130.00 a night including breakfast was very reasonable given the high quality and general ambiance of the place. I live up in Nottingham but am definately going to make the effort to have a couple of nights here at some point. Maybe all the staff should dress up as 'screws' to add even more to the theme....Just kidding, but being serious, this hotel looks fantastic!

My wife and I stayed at Bodmin jail in September 2022. And, strangely enough, we stayed in room 208 - SPOOKY! 😂 I honestly can't say enough good things about the jail and the staff. It was amazing! The room, the food, the ambience of the place was amazing. In fact, it was so good, we're going back this year! And the cocktails were stunning and the guys mixing them were hilarious!

@WalkWithMeTim Год назад

@rukeya12micktemple63 11 месяцев назад

Stunning. The designers and tradesmen have done an amazing job. The attention to detail that other places miss, like the spot on lighting to create the atmosphere. I visited Bodium Jail a couple years ago. Really interesting place. Top quality video as always. Like seriously, your production values are so good. You make everything look so easy, which is a sign of a well put together video. Makes you focus on the content.

I visited Alcatraz in San Francisco many years ago when they were in the early days of preparing it for the public to visit. During the tour we were taken to a solitary confinement cell which felt very authentic because it was dirty and stank. They asked for volunteers to go in and have the door locked, so of course my boyfriend and I volunteered. We were locked in there for three minutes. The heavy door was a foot thick and there were no windows, pitch black for three minutes felt like a lifetime!

@MrGreatplum Год назад

That’s a fabulous conversion - really nicely done. I think it felt so quiet because of the thickness of the walls. Famously the jail is one of the places where Derek Acorah, a “medium” was caught out! In an episode of Most Haunted, Acorah claimed to have been possessed by a spirit named Kreed Kafer, a South African. It was later revealed that "Kreed Kafer" was a fictional character, who was created purely for the show - it’s an anagram of “derek Faker” 😆 Love to stay there - one to put on the list!

@stevensmith7833 Год назад

Hi Tim cant believe how that looks now I was there about 15years ago when it was really run down it was the most creepiest place I'd ever been in I tock loads of photos and every one was full of orbs I had really bad dreams that night when I got back to where I was staying you could really feel the misery and suffering that went on in that place I'm really surprised it's been turned in to a hotel now

@terry-wc9sw Год назад

such a shame I agree, it was far better as an attraction ,did you stand in the haunted cell ,well what was left of it as wall was missing ,and you looked out to the naval sailors wing of the prison from the broken window .I visited in the 80,s/90,s several times .

@TheCatBilbo 2 месяца назад

I love this idea! Reusing such a unique & historic building; doing enough to make it a really good hotel but sympathetically. The stone is so warm & unusual - like a castle. Good a poor prisoner, staring at the cell ceiling, ever imagine in a million years that it would one day be a hotel!

You guys are super brave, I felt uneasy even watching this and not much scare me. I love paranormal stuff. Thought you may have lost the plot wanting for 3 seconds to be shut in a cell. My apologies I couldn't finish the video, way too creepy for me. But many thanks the 3 of you. Xxx

@rob-time 3 месяца назад

What an incredible concept! Such a masculine vibe with black combined with elements of steele, stone and leather. I love the details, like the former chapel ceiling and the automatic strip lights that luminate the grid panels in the main halls, otherwise its low light ambient. The diamond plate panels in the gym, even the bars and chains at the entrance, even the ghost tour! I don't think it's overdone because they have to offer something extra ordinary to attract guests. I would stay there for sure!

I went to visit the museum last year. It’s really good. It’s very haunted. I never got to see the hotel part though. 16:00 I’m getting this feeling that those metal things out side of the room was where the prisoner was probably tied up when they let them out side of their cell. I feel like it was where they could have been punished.

@maylloyd3348 Год назад

That really seemed a unique place to stay, and that fact alone must add to the value of the room. Watching your footage I sensed the most creep when you entered the bathroom - utterly still, no noise, no fans, no sense of anyone else left in the world that hadn't been hung already. The only downside must be, however, that carpet - really dubious sub-Spoons pattern, that!

@barrycoppock Год назад

Indeed, without doubt, an incredibly unique hotel. When you referred to the cost in the Q&A which you did I thought it sounded reasonable. Having now seen the hotel in detail, whilst a little on the expensive side, it is very much worth it with breakfast included. Two course dinner for £25, assuming high quality food, is also very good. I think the word you were looking for at breakfast was toast rack, which to be honest I would have expected the toast to be served in. And finally(!) always great to see Thumps.

I love a big slice of history and this certainly ticks the boxes for unique experiences. Love the info about each individual cell and the option to pay to go on a ghost tour- i’d be straight there as I find it so interesting. A very reasonable price for a one off unique experience. I think i’d probably feel that the walls were closing in on the cells a little bit though so strangely would have to close the curtains to trick myself into thinking this isn’t a cell with tiny barred windows. Great vlog
