SITE SEARCH (Keyword)
Tintagel, situated in the centre of a rugged and
romantic coastline, is the Mecca of every
traveller who wanders into the West. The
legendary connection with the life of the mystic
King Arthur, is undoubtedly one of the reasons
for the attraction the village exerts. Yet the
group of old and modern houses on the bare
upland half a mile inland, the isolated church,
and the gigantic headlands with their majestic
cliffs falling steeply to the never-ending roar of
the Atlantic breakers, hold in themselves the
mysterious charm of Cornwall, old and new. Its
bleakness and its humanity, its openness and
it's ancient scenery. The castle ruins which
tradition has associated with King Arthur and
his Knights, awaken the enthusiasm of
sightseers from the world over, but what binds
them to Tintagel is the spirit of Cornwall which
the place expresses. And if they are very
modern and not open to that spirit there is so
much for them to love.
Words taken from the 1950’s Official Souvenir
Guide 'Tintagel and Boscastle. North Cornwall'
by the late Ronald Youlton, an excellent
photographer and a good friend of mine.
