Padstow, situated on the North Cornish coast, between Bude and Newquay, is an 'Old World' fishing port with great charm and character. The outstanding natural scenery coupled with the attraction of a working port provides an ideal location around which to centre your holiday.

With numerous sandy beaches and coves nearby, visitors can bathe in idyllic surroundings or enjoy the large variety of water sports provided locally. There are coastal footpaths to explore and a cycle way along the disused railway track stretching inland to Wadebridge and Bodmin, following the route of the 'Atlantic Coast Express'. Fishing and boat trips run daily from the harbour, and freshly caught crabs and lobsters can be purchased at the quay side. Two excellent golf courses are also within easy reach.

All in all, Padstow is an ideal destination for those seeking refuge from the pressures of modern life.
