Pirates partner with Bodmin Jail Hotel

The Bodmin Jail Hotel and Cornish Pirates are delighted to unveil a new partnership, one of the county’s most striking and immersive luxury destinations and a powerhouse in Club rugby. This collaboration unites two organisations with deep roots in Cornwall, a shared passion for community, and a commitment to celebrating the very best the region has to offer.

Set within the dramatic walls of the historic 18th-century jail, Bodmin Jail Hotel has become known for its bold blend of heritage, storytelling, and contemporary elegance. As a luxury hotel that champions Cornish culture, craft, and hospitality, it joins the Cornish Pirates in their ongoing mission to support and elevate local talent, local businesses, and the wider Cornish community.

“We are incredibly proud to welcome the Bodmin Jail Hotel to the Cornish Pirates family,” said Ross Hancock, Head of Commercial and Communications at Cornish Pirates. “Their dedication to honouring Cornwall’s past while investing in its future mirrors our own values. This partnership is built on shared ambition, shared energy, and a shared belief in what Cornish organisations can achieve together.”

Bodmin Jail Hotel echoed the excitement behind the collaboration. “We are thrilled to partner with the Cornish Pirates, an iconic team that embodies the spirit and determination of Cornwall. At the hotel we celebrate stories, connections and experiences, and this partnership strengthens our commitment to supporting local teams, organisations and businesses. We look forward to standing proudly alongside the Pirates this season.”
