- We visit Tintagel Castle, set high on Cornwall's rugged north coast. Inextricably linked with the legend of King Arthur. We cross to the island, via the stunning Tintagel Castle Bridge, which for the first time in more than 500 years, reunites the two separated halves of Tintagel Castle.

What a spectacular place. I've never been but now it's on my bucket list. Absolutely beautiful.
Thanks, I thought so too.
Thanks for taking us out again
Thank you so much for the memories. Wass there in 82, 84 and 92. Will most probably not make it back.
Another opportunity to relive a visit to the castle 🏰. This time we didn’t have to do the slog back up to the pub !! Thanks for that you two & Poppy, Pete & Kaz 👍😀👍😀
The pub meal was well and truly earnt!
@@BobEarnshawMoHo we did similar and also had a pint 🍺 of something that wasn’t a Doom Bar in a Doom Bar glass, some Merlin’s Ale or something…. 😀👍😀👍
Another fantastic video with amazing views, thank you so much Bob and Jenny, I could never see these things otherwise 😊
Our pleasure!
Looks like a great place to visit with great views. Great video 👍
Great Vlog. Havnt been here for a day or two such wonderful scenery. Thank you for sharing.
Hi, Bob and Jenny and little Poppy, what a great place to visit with wonderful views. I had my heart in my mouth a few times when Poppy was on the edge of the rocks. I haven’t been to Tintagel so will have to make a definite note x thank you for sharing x
Poppy is very sensible about heights.
@@BobEarnshawMoHo she certainly is x
Excellent video 👍👍
Stunning castle , location and the views mesmerising!!
Certainly a good work out on those inclines 😃👍
Thanks for posting
Fabulous video and historical information guys ❤️ on our todo list 😊
Love the castle and the legends, not seen the films but read many of the books, all started with the knights of the round table in Winchester as a child. Dear Poppy. Thank you both. Take care.
Brilliant. Really want to see there
We did this visit a few weeks ago and it took days for the knees to recover from those steps. Definitely one of the most breathtaking places to visit.
Wonderful to see the Castle again, it brought back some fabulous memories, we’re looking forward to going back in September when we’re next in Cornwall xx
Thanks for putting this wonderful video together must have been a lot of work so thank you
Nice that poppy is showing you the way 😁Lovely views thank you Bob and Jenny 👍
The location of my very first school trip, at the age of eleven, some 50yrs ago now.
Thanks for the look around, magical place
Hey Bob And Jenny. Thank you for showing the walk across the bridge. Back in 2018/19 my family were involved in the building of Tintagel Bridge, my eldest son project managed, my other son detailed the railings, and my husband built it, obviously not on their own, 😂. We cannot wait to visit ourselves. incidentally the public had the option to purchase a slate tile and have their names put on them before slotted in to make up the floor of bridge.
Thanks, they did a fantastic job, something to be really proud of.
Thank you for taking us on a wonderful tour of Tintagel Castle. It's a place my heart longs to be but alas my body would never follow! Shame you can't just go over the bridge and back the same way. ~ Lin xx
Should be able to go both ways when restrictions are lifted
Hi Bob, Jenny & Poppy , enjoyed the tour of Tintagel Castle :) That bridge looks a bit scary.
What a location. Many thanks for bringing us along!!
I absolutely loved your visit to Tintagel castle. I have always wanted to visit and I now feel like I have almost been there. Thank you Bob, Jenny and Poppy
I partly watch your video for Poppy! Our Cairn has very similar personality to hers. Always on the go and wanting to scramble all over rocks and hills!
Fascinating Tintagel, all that history
Thanks for partly watching! 😁
Thank you for taking me along to tintagel Castle, what lovely views, I must say poppy is quick at getting round, have a lovely time in Cornwall all of you xx
Great video. Were going there this Saturday. We went last year to . Nice place
Brilliant video well done both of you.Poppy was a great leader as always
Fantastic video, really enjoyed it, what a walk!
Aww Poppy is so adorable and you all did well going up and down those steep steps. Well worth a visit another for the list x
I’m continuing my memory lane with you video (see Trewethett Farm) Hoping to see a St Nectans Glen video as well! That was always a wonderful walk from the camp site! Really enjoyed this beautiful vlog. I remember that painful walk from the town to and from the castle! Thanks you again!
Looks fantastic with the new bridge . Who needs a guide book when you have a poppy tour x
Great video. Been a long time since I've been there, well before the bridge was built. I do remember climbing and climbing for what seemed an eternity and collapsing on the grass at the top. A beautiful place to visit and you certainly deserved that pint at the end. Thanks for sharing. Enjoy your time ;))
Yes at least the bridge removes the most strenuous part of the visit.
Fantastic trip through Tintagel, great history lesson for us in NZ. You would of all slept well after that huge walk 😀😴👍
We certainly did!
Wonderful video. Thank you so much. I lasted visited Tintagel as a child probably 75 years ago and only recognised small parts of it but so enjoyed your visit. Poppy was a complete character. Thank you x
Its been well over 20yrs since we went to Tintagel, stunning place but dont think i could walk on that new bridge, i love watching Poppys Adventures she cant wait to get to the next bit x
Looks fabulous can’t wait to visit it ourselves as soon as we can get back to Blighty. Poppy really is a little Duracell bunny in disguise 😂 but like my Bella drags you up the hills!
Yes, Duracell Westie!
I can’t believe how few people are about, Lisa and I went a couple of weeks ago and at 10am you couldn’t move for people. There was no available spaces to get across the bridge and the following day it was closed for the following three days due to high winds…. Thanks for sharing Bob brilliant as normal
Thanks, we got there about 9:30 it was getting busy around 11am.
Had fun there, great area to walk. I think it would have been cold to live there, beautiful scenery
Cold and windy on a November's night!
Poppy step fear on that bridge.Wonderful sites.
Poppy barking at King Arthur 😂😂 no words. Brilliant vlog, great footage and you do so well xxx
Thank you so much, we do try.
Godbless u both.....keep safe
Thanks for the video! We are due to go to the same site and castle in September so it was good to see it ahead of time.
When we last visited Tintagel, many years ago, there was no bridge to make the access so easy……. it was steps all the way down and up, and same back again. Never again, but might go now with the bridge!
Same here, makes it so much easier.
Hi bob and Jenny 👏👏 well just us 2 Saying hi and thanks again 🤔 think poppy stole this video as new poppy the explorer 👍 great video thanks 👍👍👍🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🚌🚌🚌
Nice to see again, last time we went there was 2004 during our honeymoon.
Cheers guys👍
Brilliant video thanks for sharing, I have been to Tintagel several times but sadly can’t do the walk
That's a shame, there is still a Land Rover Shuttle service running down to the bottom and back.
Lovely video just booked tickets for August done the early one as traveling over from looe, looking forward to it hope we get nice weather 👍
Hi Bob & Jenny and poppy nice video as always . Got to take the are dog to the vets Monday 24th got lump on is side .
Hopefully it's something and nothing. Our Katie had a big lump on her shoulder, a harmless fatty lump called a Lipoma. Fingers crossed for you.
@@BobEarnshawMoHo Hi Bob and Jenny let know how he goes on to day and thank you getting back to me .
You must have been following us we were in Boscastle and Tintagel last week. We had a lovely week a little wet and windswept but the coastline is beautiful
We were at Trewethett around the 11th May.
We going tomorrow
Thanks for video
Have fun
A lovely video (yet again), tour of the area and the history too. We'll have a repeat watch of this later today. Thanks both of you.
Well done you three! You definitely deserve a pub lunch! 👍
Thanks Moira, we enjoyed it.
Great video! Have lovely memories of visiting Tintagel many years ago with my late parents, didn't visit the castle though! Amazing views!
Poppy was so brave walking across the bridge, braver than me!😟😟
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it.
Great video Bob. Tintagel is one of my fave EH sites, along with Restormel Castle. When constructing the new bridge, EH invited people to buy a slate for a fiver and have their name inscribed on it. Those are the slates on their sides that you walk on!
We were there yesterday. 👌🏻
Can you let me know if there is any entry ticket required to cross the bridge? Also how can I reach Tintagel from Bodmin parkway station?
Our westie is just the same when crossing bridges
Love this video and so good looking around the castle and amazing views. But please put poppy on a shorter lead when shes by the edge I’m having panics about it.
Look forward to many more videos
Thank you, but we are always very careful with Poppy and people often criticise us for keeping her on a lead, so that's a new one to us!
@@BobEarnshawMoHo she just seemed to get very close to the edge. U both love her to bits anyone can see that enjoy the rest of ur holiday
Ah, King Arthur...I was trying to work out Darth Vader's link to Cornwall 😀
Yes, it is a bit scary..
I'm glad I watched this. I'm not keen on heights and not sure I can cope with the bridge. Can you get to the other side via the steps both ways?
No, because of the one way system.
Hi Bob, Can you let me know if there is any entry ticket required to cross the bridge? Also how can I reach Tintagel from Bodmin parkway station?
Book a timed ticket with www.english-heritage.org.uk/visit/places/tintagel-Castle If you Google bodmin to tintagel train you should see how to get there - we went by car.
Hi. We've been away on a trip of our own, and now we're starting to catch up on your recent vlogs. The tour around Tintagel Castle was stunning - history and views all presented so well by the three of you. Looks like a lot of energy needed for this visit, especially at the pace that Poppy sets ! Great vlog - really enjoyed it. Now looking forward to catching up on the others. Thank you for sharing it. George and Trish - CaravanningMacs
Yes, it was a thoroughly enjoyable day, but quite tiring.
poppys panting so is bob should rename her rocket never bean there so on the list great vlog
Great vid. How long did it take roughly from entrance to King Arthur's statue?
About 1.5 hours I think. Faster if you you're not filming.
@@BobEarnshawMoHo Thanks..going there today with my kids 9 and 15 :)
Enjoy!
Thank you for your lovely videos, I am in a wheelchair - I realise that I could not get all over the Island but could I get to the bridge in my wheelchair?
It's the current one way system that stops you coming back that way, but I bet if you asked they could arrange something.
Great video, I have never been to Cornwall but it looks great. I never knew GCHQ had a listening post out there. I have been past the Cheltenham one, but had to look up Bude. Nice video, I follow your travels all over the UK and Europe..
.en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GCHQ_Bude
I was a bit surprised to hear see that on the information board!
When Britain needs Arthur he will return to Wales to save the day, my grandfather was called Arthur, you go to some places I would love to go to. My favourite Arthur is the Roman Knight who fights the Saxons in the centre the Romans left Britain not the darkages
a must for merlin and arthur fans
A special place indeed.
@@BobEarnshawMoHo i agree bob as i big fan of merlin and the knightsof round table there a few castles in cornwall
The big hotel in view is called The Camelot Hotel, it's interesting inside, had afternoon tea there.
I've had a look at reviews of that place out of interest. There are some interesting impressions people have had of the management there 😬
see any round tables Bob
Hey Bob, clean your windscreen, I've been polishing my ipad screen then realising it was in vain🤣🤣🤣🤣
I'll stop every couple of miles to clean my windscreen from now on!
@@BobEarnshawMoHo 🤣🤣🤣 only joking Bob, love your work😁
