Five things Cornwall is famous for …
- King Arthur
A visit to Tintagel is a must if you visit Cornwall, supposedly the birthplace of King Arthur. This stunning location is also the site of Merlin’s Cave.
- Food, Glorious Food
Pasties, ‘stargazy’ pie, Cornish Yarg, clotted cream … need we go on?
Come to Cornwall and be prepared to be gluttonous during your stay!
- Poldark
The books written by Winston Graham have been around for decades and there have been two major adaptations by the BBC of the eponymous saga.
A tale of tin mining, love, family feuds, inspired the dramatic landscape.
- Music
Or more accurately, Cornish bagpipes, that can be played by just handful of folks. Of course, being surrounded by the coast on three sides also means sea shanties have a stronghold on the harmonies of our superb county.
- The Stunning Coastline
Few places in the British Isles have such a varied coastline and such magnificent light, both of which have inspired artists for generations.
