Boscastle Witchcraft Museum

Boscastle Witchcraft Museum

In Boscastle, magic’s the family rogue—always first blamed when things go awry. Take 1977: a wheel of cheese vanished from the village shop, whispers pointing to a grimoire’s curse in the Museum of Witchcraft and Magic. Or 2004’s floods, when seas roared through lanes—surely that dusty tome stirred the tides? Tucked near Tintagel’s cliffs, this museum hums with mischief—cauldrons bubble, spellbooks creak, charms glint in dim light. A short hop from our Padstow cottage, it’s North Cornwall’s quirky heart. Pop in (£7, 2024, 10 AM–5 PM) to eye the grimoire yourself—did it nick that cheese? Scribble your tale where spells linger, then sip tea in Tintagel’s cafés. Boscastle’s magic begs a wander—check the forecast (mists suit witches), tread light past hexed stones. From love charms to storm runes, the museum weaves Cornwall’s odd soul, free of time’s grip. Pair it with Tintagel Castle’s myths or Padstow’s tides—your pen’s the charm here, conjuring stories in a village where magic’s never quite innocent.
