The village of Tintagel will forever be associated with the nearby castle, which is dramatically situated on its own island peninsula and has links to Arthurian legend.
There are plenty of amenities in the village, with cafes, pubs, bakeries and places to stay. Tintagel's Cornish name, Tre war Venydh, means 'Village on the Mountain'.

Town in Cornwall. The village has about 800 inhabitants.
This is the starting point for a tour to Tintagel Castle, residence of King Arthur.

Very touristy. Highly recommended is the circular walk from which you have a good view of the opposite ruins
