Feedback from Celtic Invasion of Cornwall

Feedback from Celtic Invasion of Cornwall

Author: Marc Gunn, The Celtfather October 13, 2016 Duration: 13:19

Every year, I host a Celtic Invasion Vacation. We travel to various locations around the world get to know a small region through its culture, history, legends and music.

In 2016, we invaded Cornwall in the Southwestern portion of England. Cornwall is one of the seven Celtic nations and has a lot to offer. We only tapped a small portion of it. But the experience left many great memories.

Next year is the Celtic Invasion of Brittany. Applications are now open. Only 8-10 people will join us. We have four booked as of this writing. So if you want to reserve a spot, send in your deposit and application soon.

Details about the 2017 trip will be announced in November at www.celticinvasion.com.

Join musician and storyteller Marc Gunn, known to many as The Celtfather, as he extends the journey beyond his popular music show. This companion Travel Ireland, Scotland and Beyond with Celtic Invasion Vacations podcast is an audio postcard from the road, directly from the small-group tours he leads annually. Rather than a checklist of tourist sites, each episode immerses you in the texture of a place. You’ll hear from local guides sharing histories you won’t find in textbooks, catch snippets of spontaneous music sessions in a cozy pub, and listen to travelers’ reflections as they connect with a landscape steeped in legend. The recordings are intimate and immediate, capturing the crackle of a peat fire, the rhythm of a weaving loom, or the wind across a remote headland. It’s about depth over distance, offering a sense of what it truly feels like to wander these regions with someone who knows their soul. Through this podcast, Marc provides a genuine auditory layer to the travel experience-a blend of personal narrative, casual interview, and ambient sound that makes each destination feel vividly alive. It’s for anyone who dreams of a more meaningful connection with Celtic lands, whether they’re planning their own invasion or simply wishing to escape from their armchair.
