By Road:
To
Padstow: From the
M5 south, turn onto the
A30 just after Exeter. There are several options from the
A30. The most direct way is to come off at Bodmin (A389) and follow
directions through Bodmin and Wadebridge to Padstow. Just after
the village
of Whitecross turn right through Little Petherick and St Issey (A389). This section of road is narrow in places and is not recommended for
wide vehicles. To avoid this narrow road do not turn off after Whitecross and stay
on the
A39 until Winnard’s Perch roundabout then turn right towards Padstow. Alternatively stay on
the
A30 until the
Indian Queens turning then follow the
directions to Padstow (A39). You
can also use the
AA route planning service.
As you come into Padstow
on the
A389, take the
first turning left (Grenville Road) which is about 10 yards past the
30 speed limit and "Welcome to Padstow" signs. It is beside
the
primary school and opposite Tesco. Once in Grenville Road, turn immediately left again into the
cul de sac. The first house in Grenville Road that you see is No 3 (white house), No 1 - Damara House (brown house) is
at the
end of the
cul de sac on the
right hand side. The car park is on the right beside the
house. There is one space per room. If you are bringing 2 cars
per room please park one behind the other. Please do not park in the turning circle.
The
post code is PL28 8EX.

By Bus:
Padstow is served by
the
Western Greyhound
buses 554, 555 and 556. If you are on the 555 ask for the bus stop outside Tesco.
Immediately opposite Tesco is Padstow primary school and Grenville
Road. Follow the directions “by road” from the primary
school. The 554 and 556 will drop you at the Old Railway
station. You can either get the 555 to the top of the hill or follow
the road up past the old school and pick up the directions as if walking
up from town. The nearest National Express bus stops are at Wadebridge
or St Columb Major.
You can catch the
555 or 554 buses to Padstow from there.
