Made famous by Rick Stein over the last 30 years or so, but there’s much more to Padstow than just great places to eat. It’s still a working harbour, it’s surrounded by glorious beaches, and offers a base to explore the Camel estuary. We recommend parking in wadebridge and walking or cycling ( great bike hire) the camel trail into Padstow ( this way you don’t have to worry about parking) & you can easily get bus back if needed.
Visit the lobster hatchery if you get time .

Siblyback Lake
This is a wine tasting tour not to be missed. If you can book an afternoon tasting and it’s a good day you can sit in the decking and believe you are in the champagne region of France obviously the wine is better.
