Welcome to St Neot

Calor Village of the Decade

Our village nestles in a sheltered valley on the southern edge of Bodmin Moor, enjoying the mild Cornish climate and an outstanding community spirit.

DON’T STAMP ON OUR VILLAGE!

The current UK government has asked Post Office Ltd, to rationalize their post office network. As a result over two thousand post offices have been chosen for closure, St Neot is one of them.

The information Post Office have used to justify our closure is flawed. For example they say the population within one mile of the Post Office is 281. Where as the true figure is nearer 500

We have only six weeks to Save our Post Office!

and so if you wish to oppose this closure,   Please email or write to the Post Office consultation team making your point. Suggested format: ‘We strongly object to the closure of the St Neot Post Office, South East Cornwall, because (We use it X times per week/month.

Nature lovers will enjoy walking on the moor or along the river up to Golitha Falls, taking advantage of the local trout and salmon fishing or just relaxing in the Doorstep Green, a garden created by the villagers in 2004.

During any extended stay in our village you will be welcomed into the community and able to join in with church or chapel services, visit the monthly produce market or attend a meeting of one of our many clubs and societies such as the Ramblers, the Local Historians, the Welcome Club or the Women’s Institute.
