Wonderfully rural or in a town or village with the hustle and bustle of Cornish life on your doorstep, take your pick. Made famous by Rick Stein over the last 30 years or so, there’s much more to Padstow than just great places to eat.

FAQ's Padstow

View all
  • Some would say eating! And if you have the budget, you probably could, there are that many great places to eat! Or you could spend the day learning to cook with Rick Stein, though he probably won't be there.

    Away from the gastro indulgences, Padstow is a nice place to just amble around, look in a few shops, take a walk out along the coastal path, or hire a bike and go up the Camel Trail?

    You can learn all about lobsters, visit Prideaux House or St Petroc's Church, even catch a ferry across to Rock...

  • It's best known these days as the place where Rick Stein has all his restaurants, but prior to Mr Stein turning up, it was probably best known for its May Day celebrations and the Obby Oss, which dances through the busy streets from morning to night.

  • It's about 9 km (5.5 miles) from Wadebridge to Padstow along the Camel Trail. It's flat all the way on a good hard surface. Most people walk it in about two hours, but it can take longer if you stop to take in the fantastic views!

    There are busses back to Wadebridge if you don't fancy the return walk.
