I usually catch a woodpecker, certainly heard one when we were on our local dog walk and mentioned it to Andrew - would love to see one! Sarah :)

A lovely, very relaxing watch! Many thanks!

Our pleasure! Sarah :)

In Germany in our today's evening TV program they showed a new Rosamunde Pilcher Film.....playing in PADSTOW !! Filmed last autumn. The Alms House they used as a doktor and a shop in the next street as an old cinema.... Prideaux Place ( outside and inside) is also seen.....isn't it funny ? 🤭 Lovely video and walk with you.🤗

[@CornishWalkingTrails]

Wow! That's amazing! Sarah :)

Thank you, nice to see a different side to Padstow, some nice quaint little streets to explore ,,,,,,,,,Brian&Jane.

Padstow is a really nice place. I was only there for one day. I regret that now. Next time I will stay longer. Thanks for the interesting video

[@veronicacrabtreehill6608]

All the history there is incredible. So quiet without the hoards of 'non' locals.

[@MariaLeel]

I just caught a glimpse of my favourite Padstow shop... On Middle Street Jo Downs Handmade Glass... It's full of beautiful, colourful things. Just like walking into a magical grotto x

[@JC-yc7of]

Great walk about guys. Miss my favourite Cornish haunts . We normally cottage it in Port Gaverne and occasionally Harlyn bay. The Cross House is a B&B and the cross outside was thought to be the location of the Maypole in the 1930s. Keep up the good work

[@CornishWalkingTrails]

Very interesting and would be a good place for a Maypole, plenty of room to dance around, Sarah :)

[@margaretrotherforth2346]

Missed my early morning viewing of your video, just watched now , once again it's lifted my spirits, last time I was in Padstow it was heaving with visitors. It was so nice meandering with you through Padstow and seeing things i have missed on my visits there. Thank you both once again, looking forward already to your next video. Thank you once again, take care xx

[@plantsandartemius]

Hello) Cool video! I really enjoyed travel is always good ! Thank you and have a great weekend friend

[@sudsymama]

What a great place to see! Padstow in the sunshine is incredible. The buildings, church and deer were great to see. Thanks so much, this brightened my day. More jokes Andrew!

[@whattovisitinromania5044]

Beautiful town, so peaceful and nice there! ❤️❤️❤️

[@johnojohno4194]

That was brilliant we love Padstow thank you both, great to hear more history about the place, and we saw our favourite cake and coffee shop, Cherry trees, should be there in around 7 weeks, thanks again.

Lovely video guys

[@ruthcoffin5340]

Fantastic video. It's so good to see Padstow looking great in the sunshine. Thank you both.

[@aeward1982]

Very few people now live in the old part of town. I work at Padstow school and most of our families live in the housing estates at the top. Of the town near tesco.

[@CornishWalkingTrails]

I know where you mean! Some fabulous properties in that area and I expect the newer houses are much easier to live in for a modern family, have parking and a bit of garden, both lovely either way, Sarah :)

[@Thursdaym2]

Ghost town in winter. Often go for a walk round of a nice evening, rarely see anyone. Seen the prices paid for small properties, no parking facilities. Unbelievable, course not locals buying

[@aeward1982]

@@Thursdaym2 of course not. No one local can afford to. We have lost a class worth of children gradually and now have mixed aged classes because young families have been priced out of their town. 🤦‍♀️

So nice to see you out and about again. Always a comfort and joy to see your videos!😎😊⛴

[@CornishWalkingTrails]

Thank you kindly! Sarah :)

[@JoannaLouise200]

Feeling so spoilt again ~ what an incredible walk, exploring amazing architecture! I thought that was inventive of the people in the adjoining houses with the flying freehold...painting exactly the boundary of their territory! Just love it when you find those almost hidden alleyways. As you say, it really is a special moment in time ~ so peaceful with so fewer people around, excepting of course church bells, crows & seagulls (but I love them!) x

[@veronicacrabtreehill6608]

Why ARE crows so noisy though ? Caw caw caw all the time and never proving a point.

[@TheKaris9]

Looking forward to visiting Padstow again this summer! Really enjoy your videos, please keep them coming😊

[@gillleach4082]

Can't wait to visit Padstow this summer (booked!) I was saying the same thing about Grasmere, Cumbria the other day...not a soul in sight. When will we ever see these gorgeous touristy towns as quiet ever again! (sad for the traders though). (BTW Glad I'm not the only one, whose other half tells the corniest jokes!)

[@CornishWalkingTrails]

Indeed, so quiet, a little time capsule. It's a man thing! I put it down to a hang up from entertaining children! Perhaps we should all have a house called 'Punion'!! Sarah :)

[@carlyamandaart]

Wonderful video. I’d love to know more about the verse on the little girls grave, so sad but also fascinating to know what had happened during that time 🙂

[@TheSWolfe]

I've a feeling that verse was referring to "original sin" that certain religions believe all to have been born burdened with, even the most innocent of babes. I think it results from the Christian origin story re Adam & Eve & the Serpent in the Garden of Eden. Perhaps babes are baptised to rid/protect them from this, so that if they die in infancy, their wee souls shall go to Heaven. This is an educated guess from someone not of the flock, perhaps someone of the Catholic/Christian faith might better explain. That's just what I inferred from reading the headstone.

[@stephenjohns3817]

Great video again showing the beauty of the town. Only really stopped off briefly in my past visits. Three pasty shops in a row and never stopped off? Lol.

[@CornishWalkingTrails]

3 pasty shops in a row and one just out of sight - incredible!! And Andrew had a packed lunch with him so he didn't succumb! Sarah :)

[@stephenjohns3817]

@@CornishWalkingTrails ...couldn't sleep that night lol! But I do like a good pasty though....

[@lilasmith6886]

Lovely video, thank you so much. Great to see you after lockdown. Youve certainly kept us going with your great videos. Stay safe xxx

[@antonycherry1947]

Having visited Padstow several years ago, we loved this around town walk and were inspired to revisit the place again soon. By the way, Andrew's interest in post boxes reminded me of the post boxes we saw on a couple of former British colonial Caribbean islands during a cruise there two years ago. I was astounded, although probably shouldn't have been surprised, to see that the post boxes there are exactly the same as the one Andrew admires here... they were still even painted red! At Barbados sea port, there is even a new style up-to-date red pillar box with 'ER' on the front. Thanks as always for your excellent vlogs. 'Devon' Tony ;-)

[@CornishWalkingTrails]

What a lovely story, and interesting about the post boxes! Sarah :)

[@antonycherry1947]

[@CornishWalkingTrails]

He! He! Sarah :)

[@Thursdaym2]

Harder to avoid one!

[@SuperJules57]

Lovely! Thank you 🥰

[@judybee]

Padstow, like I've never seen it before! Oh my, how quiet was that? I thought at first you had gone down at 6am in the morning! But the clock on the church chiming told otherwise! It really is a lovely town, but sooooooo overcrowded in the tourist season. I have a silver Celtic cross I wear all the time, bought in a little shop off the quay a LONG time ago. Took a boat trip out to see the seals last time we were there. We like to take the little ferry over from Rock if we visit, as parking is a bit of a nightmare usually. But the history is so interesting & as you show in your video, the streets are quaint and pretty. And fish & chips on the quayside from Rick's place are the bizz! J x

[@CornishWalkingTrails]

Must admit that the COVID restrictions have been a silver lining for us, less traffic etc - when we have been able to get out! We plan our videos in the summer months to avoid, in the nicest sense, the busier parts of Cornwall. Like you say, parking and traffic, and a long journey home, can make it quite exhausting! I think my age is catching up with me! Sarah :)

[@Thursdaym2]

Even in the height of the season, if you just walk a few hundred yards away from the quayside you will find it like this.

[@CornishWalkingTrails]

Very good! Sarah :)

[@wolvoman1]

Those parking charges are a bit steep lol Up to one hour is £1 but up to two hours is £2.50 and not £2 as i would have calculated. Thank you for allowing me to join in on your walk.

[@CornishWalkingTrails]

Totally agree, but a bit like that these days in Cornwall, not sure about the rest of the country! Sarah :)

[@lilasmith6886]

Very interested in the gravestone of the 7 year old and the rhyme. I wondered if the bit about the fall of man polluting etc was referring to the fall of adam and eve and the start of sin or polluting of the earth.

[@carolynabbott888]

Yes I agree. Sadly it sounds as though she died at the hands of someone . Her family might not have wanted to put that on her gravestone though.

[@maobfh]

It is early in the morning here on the east side of the States. I jumped over to the internet to see what i could find out about the little girl's grave and the meaning with no luck. Learned a fair bit but not that. What a wonderful way to start the day! I think Andrew and my husband Michael should sit down for a pun exchange. They seem to be cut from the same cloth. Our job would be to resist the laugh without ruining the party. I don't know, as i am always tossing him a line. Well, if we can't beat the, join them. I thought Andrew just kept getting better as the day progressed. Padstow is fanTAStic but I would not enjoy it jam paced with people like the pictures i saw around Padstow in search of the stories behind the gravestones at St. Padroc's church yard. I could try to find another seaside village that is not as busy but then it wouldn't be Padstow. So i shall find an off season time to visit. Thank you for another lovely video! R

[@CornishWalkingTrails]

An unusual time for a video with no visitors and a bit special because of that! Some lovely comments here about the grave verse so all has been explained - I love that about our channel! Not sure i could resist laughing or groaning! Sarah :)

[@Thursdaym2]

Both my daughter and son were married in church of St Petroc.

Hi Jean, We are aware of Lucas and indeed met him a couple of years ago, a very nice young man. Whilst our channels are very different I am bemused by your comment.
