From Land's End itself an equally magnificent coastline fans out to both north and south along the corrugated edges of great cliffs, while the rocky spine of the peninsula wriggles its way eastwards through an enduring landscape of tawny moorland, green fields, woods and serene, unworldly villages; a landscape enriched with the haunting burial chambers and stone circles of ancient people whose spirit still seems to cast a spell over this 'Peninsula of Saints'.
