How to Visit the Cornwall Region in 2025

"Built between 1539 and 1545, I found St Mawes Castle to be among the best-preserved and most elaborately decorated of Henry VIII’s coastal artillery fortresses; it was designed to sink passing enemy ships, is impressively huge, and the displays are quite informative." - Matthew Kepnes
