The remains of Tintagel Castle are at the heart of Arthurian legend. The location of the castle is spectacular – half a mile outside of Tintagel, across rugged clifftops, with no vehicular access. Tintagel Island, attached to the mainland by a sliver of land, enhances the wild and romantic atmosphere.

Jon, whose work can be found in collections in Europe, Japan, New Zealand and the US, specialises in contemporary, wheel thrown pottery, a large collection of which is on display here, and is available to buy.
Elegant ceramics with watercolour style decoration and precious metals.
Ever-changing exhibitions of art, sculpture and ceramics from renowned artists.
A well-known local artist who gathers inspiration from Cornwall and around the world.
Definitely a place for the active family! There's tennis, golf, a health club, spa and pool available here and all have daily memberships available. See their Web site for further details.
A 600 year old traditional Cornish longhouse, inside which is a fully restored Victorian post office.
