Padstow

Watching the everyday ebb and flow of harbour life is a perfect way to spend a day in Padstow. And when this gets too hectic, then spread your towel on nearby Harbour Cove, and watch the sails of the passing river traffic. Or get a sailor’s view of the Camel Estuary on a boat trip, sailboard or ferry ride.

Take time away from the quayside to explore the port’s rich heritage - the hidden curiosities of the Town Trail, the maritime displays in Padstow Museum, and the grounds and lavish interiors of Prideaux Place, home of the Prideaux-Brune family for 400 years and film location for Twelfth Night. On balmy summer evenings there are quayside concerts, where the brass band plays on as the sun goes down. And once a year on May Day, Padstow dances to a different tune, when the pagan ’Obby ’Oss is unleashed and the narrow streets throb to the ceaseless drumbeat and wild cavortings of this age-old fertility celebration.
