Dramatically set atop steep cliffs and possessing stunning views, Tintagel is the mythical home of King Arthur. The ruins date from the 12th and 13th centuries and walking up and down the steep paths and steps takes you around what is left of these amazing ruins. This Medieval castle is now only joined to the mainland by a thin strip of land. Used in the 5th and 6th centuries as trading settlement of Celtic Kings, Tintagle castle is defiantly worth a visit.
