A little history
Padstow's Obby Oss celebration on 1 May — where a great 'horse' character dances through the town all day — is one of the most ancient and extraordinary folk traditions in England, dating back centuries. Rick Stein arrived in 1975 and has since opened multiple restaurants, giving the town a global culinary reputation.
The Obby Oss on 1 May is genuinely extraordinary — book accommodation months in advance. Rick Stein's fish and chips on the harbour are outstanding. The Camel Trail cycling to Bodmin. The harbour views.
