It lies 6.9 km north-west of St Blazey (from St Blazey: bearing 326°T, OS grid SX 032 606), and is situated north-east of Bugle village. This small hamlet in Cornwall, part of the South West region of England, offers a glimpse into traditional Cornish life. Historically, the economy of Bodwen, like much of this part of Cornwall, would have been closely tied to farming and perhaps mining in earlier centuries.
