Castle Closed

Tintagel Castle is currently closed due to high winds! If you have prebooked your tickets, we will refund you within 10 working days. This will happen automatically and you do not need to contact us. We always do everything we can to avoid unexpected closures and are really sorry to disappoint you.

Once we firm up our plans, we'll hold an open day for Tintagel residents to hear what they think.

Keep an eye on this page for the latest updates on the project.
