Tintagel, King Arthur and Merlin's Cave: A circular, coastal walk to Bossiney, Cornwall

In this week's video we try a four mile circular walk around Tintagel, on the North Coast of Cornwall.

Our walk is inspired by a 1950’s souvenir guide which takes us from the centre of the village to the delightful cove, Tintagel Haven, where we discover Merlin’s Cave. After a quick explore, we pick up the South West Coast Path to Bossiney Haven before returning to Tintagel.

There are some wonderful old stories in this vlog, and the views are magical! We even try to find a petrifying well - the only one in Cornwall. In hindsight, we think we may have found it but not realised at the time! What do you think?


The standard description bit…
We are Sarah and Andrew and we film our walks around Cornwall and publish on YouTube, usually weekly. Sometimes we stay in accommodation in Cornwall and upload our vlog. Sarah is fascinated by sea glass and likes to collect it so there may be the occasional sea glass video too. The channel is a hobby and we both have normal day jobs!

We love your comments and read all of them. We also answer as many as possible. Unfortunately, we cannot answer comments received more than a week after publication.

Frequently asked questions:
What are your dogs called?
Sorry but we do not release the names of our dogs but perhaps you could make up a name for them!

What camera do we use?
Since December 2018 we have used: Canon Powershot G7x MkII

How do I find the books you use?
Most are still in print although some we pick up in charity shops and may be available on Amazon secondhand. Please refer to the video for the book titles. Every video shows the book three times. Sorry but we can’t put a link in every description.

Best time of year to visit Cornwall?
We love May, June for flora and fauna, July and September for spectacular scenery.
