The very name Tintagel is steeped in British history—the legendary King Arthur and his Knights of the Round Table, chivalry, Merlin the magician and the mighty sword Excalibur. Tintagel Castle in Cornwall is owned by Prince Charles, so it is fitting that he and the Duchess of Cornwall stayed at the Tintagel in Colombo when they visited Sri Lanka in 2013.
