The art of Cornwall

Picks for the peckish
Aside from its amazing art, Padstow is famously home to a variety of top-notch food and drink retailers, each offering something unique. BinTwo has a selection of the most luxurious champagnes to equally excellent wines that won’t break the bank, the team has got you covered. To accompany your drink, why not partake in one of BinTwo’s light lunches, such as their famous lobster roll (true to the Maine recipe!), or a delectable charcuterie board? Bin Two also supply local gins, vodkas and wines from our renowned vineyards such as Trevibban Mill and Camel Valley. 17 Duke Street stocks a wide selection of Champagne, wines, Padstow Gin®, charcuterie, coffee and cakes. Stay in and let the experienced team serve you scrumptious, premium cocktails or recommend the best bottles for you to take away.
Pamper your pets
Indulge your four-legged friends at Slicker’s Doghouse which is adjacent to the harbour. Here you will find quality dog coats, collars, harnesses and leads, toys, accessories and much more to keep your pet happy, cool and hydrated in the Cornish sun (or rain!). The Paws in Padstow dog boutique (located just outside of Padstow, at the Trevisker Garden Centre) has an equally impressive range of products, with top quality dog beds, foods and toys, in addition to doggy-related artworks by Simon Clarke and ‘Sue’. Whilst at Trevisker, why not browse their garden centre and pick up a few colourful plants.
