Tintagel

Tintagel is a village situated on the Atlantic coast of Cornwall. The village and nearby Tintagel Castle are asscociated with the legends surrounding King Arthur. The village has in recent times become a magnet for tourists and day-trippers. A lot of the area surrounding Tintagel is maintained and run by the English Heritage. In 2004 the area was overtaken by Hollywood glamour when Jerry Bruckheimer produced 'King Arthur', starring Kiera Knightley, Ray Winstone and Clive Owen.
