Castallack is a hamlet near Lamorna in west Cornwall, England, UK.[1]

Castallack lies within the Cornwall Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB). Almost a third of Cornwall has AONB designation, with the same status and protection as a National Park.

Castallack Roundago (grid reference SW44822540) is a good example of an Romano-British round despite it having been partly destroyed in the 19th century.[2]
