Distance - 3.5 Miles
Geocaches - 5
Walk Inspiration
We couldn't leave the South West Coast Path without a final goodbye.
So its up at first light, after the worst of Storm Angus has disappeared and down to Tintagel Youth Hostel. A fine potential place to stop for when I attempt the Coast Path in one go.

Path to the Coast |
Another stretch of exciting coast line, although mercifully without yesterday's ups and downs at Boscastle. A number of geocaches to keep us entertained between the dog walking muggles.
|
Tintagel Church at Dawn |
The highlight of the walk is Tintagel Castle - where King Arthur may have been conceived/lived/died - delete as applicable dependent on how much you buy into the legend. We have fond memories of bringing our youngest here when all he demanded was a sword and a shield.
We now have to stop off on the way home at his University Town, Bath, to take him to the finest Italian available in Avon.
|
King Arthur's Castle |
We circuit Barras Nose, grab the last cache and head into town to say goodbye to the pubs we investigated on Friday night. A distinct lack of Good Beer Guide pubs on this stretch of coastline but if you find yourself here, the King Arthur's Arms (corny, I know) is the best by a mile. The food is good and the pool is 50p a frame.
