Tintagel Castle
Although much of Tintagel is themed around the legend of King Arthur, there are other things to do.
Visit the old Post Office, walk the South West Coast Path or visit the ancient church of St Materiana’s, perched high on the cliff overlooking Tintagel Castle, where King Arthur is supposed to have lived.
Slapton Sands
An extremely picturesque and popular sandy beach, Slapton Sands plays an important part in the survival of some of the UK's rarest flora and fauna.
The history associated with Slapton Sands during WW2 is Operation Tiger, which was one of a series of large-scale rehearsals for the D-Day invasion of Normandy, which took place in April 1944 on Slapton Sands in Devon.
Gloucester Cathedral
Ancient, spectacular and a beautifully serene place to visit, the Cathedral is one of the most magnificent Gothic buildings in the world. Gloucester Cathedral is the final resting place of Edward II, where a nine-year old Henry III was crowned and where pilgrims have flocked for centuries.
