  • Yes, once you get down into the town. The main carpark is up on the hill, but there are hoppa-busses that take you down into the centre.

    Although the town centre is not pedestrianied, it's never too busy with vehicles and easy to browse the shops and galleries.

  • Dogs are welcome on Harbour beach except between the 1st July and the 31st August (10am - 6pm) when a seasonal dog ban is in place.

  • Visit Cornwall would hate to take sides here by saying one place is better than the other.

    Padstow is best known these days for its foodie connections, though that's not to say there aren't some fine places to eat in St Ives. Padstow might not have the beaches that St Ives has but with the tide out the sandy estuary provides a wonderful place to relax in the sunshine.

    St Ives possibly has more for the family than Padstow, although you can't beat sitting on the harbour catching crabs! And Padstow also has the Camel Trail, a safe flat cycle route up river to Wadebridge.

    Of course, St Ives is known for it's art, and although there are a few galleries in Padstow, they can't compete with the Tate St Ives, or can they? I suppose it depends on your taste's?
