We chose Padstow because it gives you everything — dramatic coastlines, world-class food, a real sense of community, and it’s proper dog-friendly too. There’s nowhere quite like it. You can do everything or nothing. Surf in the morning, pub roast at lunch, and curl up by the fire in the evening. For us, it’s the ultimate escape from the city.
Padstow has this rare charm — it’s a working fishing town that hasn’t lost its soul. You’ve got golden beaches, wild coastal paths, and that fresh sea air that makes you instantly breathe easier. We especially love the hidden coves you find on a morning walk with the dog, and the buzz of the harbour in the evening when everyone’s spilling out of pubs with pink cheeks from the sun (or the wine). It’s that mix of calm and character that keeps us coming back.
