Castles, Canals and Witches in Cornwall England in Bude

Thought to be the home of the legendary King Arthur it was certainly the home of the royalty of Dumnonia. Entry is not included in the tour but you are welcome to visit.

An absolutely fascinating place to visit, this airfield saw action in WW2 and was used as a formula one racing circuit post war.
The Cornwall at War Museum is also well worth a visit.
The airfield is free to visit, but entry to the museum is not included.

In the shadow of Roughtor you'll learn of the tragic end of Charlotte Dymond, view a bronze age field system and round houses. A walk up Roughtor itself is possible.

We visit Stannon stone circle. Standing alone on the desolate moor for centuries, its purpose long forgotten. But you'll learn to dowse here, and questions can be asked of the dowsing rods. What will you discover?

A gentle stroll of about a mile brings us to the smallest property owned by The National Trust. Built entirely of driftwood by The Rev R.S.Hawker, he spent many hours here inspired in his writings by the magnificent coastline.

We come into Bude and look at a medieval pack horse bridge, the Bude canal, the harbour and a rare sea lock. We look at the site of Bude railway station.

We pause to look at the fabulous coastline and a bronze age burial mound before continuing along the coast to look at the spectacular chevron folds, an amazing geological feature of folded layers of sedimentary rock.

We walk around the historic harbour talk of the industry which built Boscastle. You'll learn of the flood of Boscastle in 2004. We walk up to The Lookout which is on the site of a bronze age castle. Before we leave Boscastle we visit the castle which gives Boscastle it's name.

This is perhaps the prettiest church in the universe. You'll learn of the life of a witch, her death and what happened after!

We spend as long as you like in Tintagel. There are historic buildings to look at as well as shops to browse in.
