Landrake (Cornish: Lannergh) is a village in southeast Cornwall, England. It is situated approximately three miles (5 km) west of Saltash, in the civil parish of Landrake with St Erney (where the population of the 2011 census was included.).[1] The A38 road passes through the village.[2]

Landrake has a post office, a shop, a pub named the Bullers Arms, and Sir Robert Geffery's School, a primary school. The school takes its name from Landrake-born Sir Robert Geffery who, in 1704, bequeathed money to set up a trust to educate children of the parish.[3]
