Lanivet (Cornish: Lanneves[1]) is a village and civil parish in Cornwall, England, United Kingdom. The village is situated approximately 2+1⁄2 miles (4.0 km) southwest of Bodmin,[2] and before the Bodmin by-pass was built, the A30 road between London and Land's End passed through the village. The Saints' Way long-distance footpath passes Lanivet near its half-way point.

The parish includes the hamlets of Bodwanick, Bokiddick, Lamorick, St Ingunger, Trebell, Tregullon, Tremore, and Woodly. Part of St Lawrence is also in this parish. An electoral ward of the same name surrounds Bodmin. Its population at the 2011 census was 4,241.[3]
