We parked at the car park opposite the tea room, walked down the hill to just before the lay-by and followed the footpath sign. The walk is a little rocky and steep in places so bear in mind if walking is difficult. But it’s worth the effort. Along the stream, under trees, passed the old ruins of the mill / rock carvings and up/ down to the valley and sea. We came back going up to the top, and along the sea path to the parking. Views are spectacular.

Overall Ratings

Located below Tintagel Castle, the birthplace of King Arthur, this cave is believed to be where Merlin lived. The caves are accessible from a footpath, but fill with water at high tide.

You can visit these caves without going inside the castle, offering a jeep ride down and back for a small fee, well worth it, a small beach is at the bottom.. lovely and relaxing

Reviewed By ClaireAdamMoss - Ilfracombe, United Kingdom
Having an hour or so free before our timed visit to Tintagel Castle we decided to take a quick stroll up to St Materiana's church as we have always looked over to it and wished we had more time to visit. An easy walk up the road to the gorgeously positioned little church with it's church yard full of history and stories. It's location right on the South West Coast Path is brilliant with such stunning views in every direction. The church itself is a tranquil spot and perfect to sit for a moments quiet reflection and to light a candle for remembrance and prayer. So glad we made the visit and then down the hill to the castle.
