Tintagel is a little village on the Atlantic coast of Cornwall. There are the remains of Tintagel Castle which is associated with the legend of King Arthur and the knights of the Round Table.This place was actually an ancient settlement which had one hundred houses and an estimated population of about one thousand people.
It was built at the top of the cliff with an impressive view over the sea. It was only accessible in two ways: a small harbour at the bottom from the sea and a footpath from the land, so this place was easily defended in case of invasion.
You also can see The Old Post Office built in the 14th century which became a tourist attraction.
You can see spectacular photos from this place at the Gallery.
