The south-west region exerts a powerful and magical spell over those who roam its lanes and byways in search of its secret, sacred and haunted places. “…[It] is pre-eminently the region of dream and mystery" wrote Thomas Hardy in 1870, describing his first experience of Cornwall, and few who have stood on its windswept cliffs or strayed into its timeless towns and villages can disagree with his description. Cornwall is an otherworldly gateway to the haunted realm beyond which lie the counties of Devon and Somerset, both of which are stepped in history and mystery and have much to tempt the intrepid ghost seeker. It is a landscape imbued with the very spirit of Arthurian legend, where bleak moors jostle alongside mysterious old inns, whilst melancholic castle ruins gaze out across landscapes that are dotted with picturesque remote villages. All in all the haunted and mystical south-west ofoffers some truly magnificent places in which to hunt for ghosts. Yet it also has a special magic that will keep you returning time and time again both physically and spiritually.
