Cornwall’s character stems from its ancient traditions unique, its landscapes too are unique: wild and rugged, with a harsh backbone of granite and a spectacular coastline, battered by the Atlantic’s waves. For this reason, sheltered harbours have always been a fascinating feature for visitors to Cornwall and locals alike. Many have had castles built to protect them, including Pendennis Castle, Cornwall’s greatest fortress at Falmouth and Henry VIII’s picturesque coastal castle in St. Mawes.
