Tintagel and King Arthur

The legend of King Arthur lives on. In this video I explore the village of Tintagel and the castle whilst sharing the Arthurian story as I understand it.

Wow, this video really took me on a journey through King Arthur's legend and the beauty of Cornwall! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏰 The pasties looked delicious, and your exploration of history was fascinating. Thanks for sharing this adventure with us!

Thank you so much. I'd hoped this video would have had a few more views by now but comments like this make it all worth the effort.

Very interesting tale. It’s one you want to believe that he really did exist. Very enjoyable thanks Joe.

Hi Marilyn. I did quite a bit of research on this one, including listening to a number of podcasts with well respected historians and even they when asked a direct question as to whether he existed or not will only say they don't think so. They can't say for sure though so the legend lives on.

Great visit to King Arthur's (?) castle 😊 Intriguing story and I plan to visit some time. I have been to Tintagel once in 2017, but had sadly too little time to visit the castle. But next time I definitely will 😊 Thank you!

[@JoeCoastal]

I too passed by a few years ago with my dad but due to bus connections no time to visit the castle so it was a nice to finally see it. There's a whole other story to tell about the life of this later castle. Perhaps a future video but then again, looking at the low view numbers so far, maybe not.

Thanks Joe, that really was an amazing video. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ this is somewhere I definitely want to visit, it's such an amazing statue as well. How long did it take you to explore it all. Incredible scenery as well.

[@JoeCoastal]

Thanks Rob. I guess it took me about an hour to walk round but if I'd read and digested every notice board it could have been longer. Also I read somewhere that there's a stone with an inscription on it that includes Arthur's name. I didn't find that so I must have missed something.

Nice video Joe 😊

[@JoeCoastal]

Thank you. I consider myself lucky to be able to visit these places.

Great video with your usual flair and style! A great tonic for my hangover 😊

[@JoeCoastal]

Flair and style? Don't think I've ever been acused of that before 😂 Thanks mate. Hope the hangover isn't too bad.

[@gideonhillman9794]

@@JoeCoastalit’s not too good 😂😂

[@JoeCoastal]

@gideonhillman9794 oooh sorry to hear that. I take it you won't be out today then 😉

[@gideonhillman9794]

You can put money on it……. See you Wednesday 😊

[@JoeCoastal]

@gideonhillman9794 will do. I finish at 6.30 so all good.

[@robmains3736]

Hi Joe, I forgot to ask, have you read any good books you can recommend about king Arthur.

[@JoeCoastal]

I didn't read much for this but I did listen to quite few podcasts I found on Spotify. They are probably available from other podcast sources too. I'd recommend listening to a few of those if you get he chance.
